Queen Swaps-Theme Preorder


Each month the stampin' team I am a part does a swap with a theme. These swaps come from the stampers who are part of the Queen of the Stamp Age (aka Queens) and the theme was to use items from the New Annual Catalog Preorder list. For preorder only a selective few stamps and supplies are available to order. These swaps are amazing as they showcase these same stamp sets yet in all different ways. Scroll and click through the photos below and note the creator of each card! Be sure to comment on some of your favorites or visit their blogs/facebook pages too if you have any questions on how they made them.

I hope you enjoyed looking through each card! I know I love having all these different designs with stamps sets that I don't have (yet). Swapping is one of my favorite things to do as it makes me try my best and in return I get inspired by all the cards I get back! You can swap too, with your friends or you can join my stampin' team, Royal Hearts Stampers! We would be happy to have you and help you start swapping right away! Click on Join my Team above to get started on your stampin' journey!

Happy Stampin' Everyone!

Fun Fold Friday: Nested Flap with Daisy Lane

Each Friday I go live on my Facebook page, The Joy of Stampin' with Rachael, at 4:00 pm PT (I'm in California). This card, Nested Flap Fun Fold,  was featured this week and I learned how to make it from the talented Julie Davison. 


I used the Daisy punch and the 1/2 circle punch for my daisy and added some sponging and wink of stella to the center.


Here is a great visual of everything you need to make this style of Fun Fold. It is up to you for what you add to your flap and the stamp set you use. The possiblities are endless! The supplies I used are all down below and can be found at my online store.
