 I got another you and me swap envelope from my swap partner. This time it is Lara Ross in Auckland, New Zealand. So the post the envelope came a long way and look at these beautiful stamps on the envelope and look at the cupcakes If my camera decides it wants to focus Maybe Anyway, it's really cool. Let's open it. I haven't opened it yet. We have two cards to make Let's see what kind of pieces she sent me to work with Whoops stuff's falling out and the envelope look at the envelope on the inside. I Like that might have to use that all right First there's a card with more bits and pieces in it. All right. Let's see what it says I'm sure it'll be fine. We'll see so she put in some ribbon trim Look at these love the colors Some pretty look at that paper that is pretty paper Maybe it's my eyes that aren't in focus. Oh, yeah, see the camera's in focus. It's not It's my eyes. Holy cow. I need to put the reading glasses on So I love that paper And there's this piece of like handmade paper. Look at that That's cool Look at these tiny book papers It's a little teeny dictionary. Look at how little they are. Oh, I love them They're so cool Camera doesn't want to that the camera doesn't want to focus on but anyway, they're so cool Says be you Another little piece of ribbon or no, that's the same ribbon. It keeps sticking to things a little 3d sticker thing it says wish a Little mini playing card. Look how small that is like the back side some braille paper Some washi tape and two little round epoxy stickers Cool. I love this washi tape up here thrills and chills some some words Fabulous life Some around. Oh, there's hold their whole reinforcer stickers. Those are cute Some die-cut circles some really cute papers and Two brads Two square brads. So we will see what we can do with these. I will fast forward through the process and I'll be right back I had some little issues with my camera's autofocus not wanting to work in the middle of filming that and so I had to reboot the camera and Then I started back to making the cards. I don't know But I think you got enough of an idea that I just layered a bunch of different fun pieces and parts She sent me on the card to create an interesting background And then use the words that she sent me to create interesting quotes to do completely different ones on each card I really love the way they turned out. The problem is now I got to figure out which one to send her I think I know which one, but I love them both But I'm gonna write a note in the back I'm gonna let them dry. They're really wet and then I'm gonna write a note in the back And I'm gonna send them back to her now I'm gonna try to link Cindy's video where she talks about the you and me challenge And I have one too in the description below. Hopefully I remember if I forget somebody out there remind me and If you want to sign up for a you and me challenge swap with somebody around the world Let me know or I should say let Cindy know she's coordinating it and it's a lot of fun They send you a surprise little envelope full of parts and you create two index cards with it I wanted to keep one to send back and Yeah, it's always different. You never know what you're gonna get in the envelope So but they're a lot of fun. All right, that's it. Thank you so much for the bits and pieces Lara And I hope you like your card when you get it back I can't wait to see what you make for me And I'm definitely gonna save the bits and pieces because I know I can use some of them in my Upcoming journal pages.
