Over 70 Ideas for Paper Craft Embellishments from a Swap

I have been part of a swap for the last 3 months where we swap stamped images, punched out items, or die cut items.  They do not have to follow any theme or style, it is purely a way to share the supplies you have with others and get back a ton of other fun stamped images, punched images, and die cut images that you may not have of you own.  

Here is a video where I show off each and every piece.  Each month 10 people participate and you send off 3 embellishments to each person, each being a little different.  So you mail out 27 items total (you do not send out the ones to yourself, you keep those for you).  So after then end of 3 months I had 81 new embellishments, but a few were repeated or just a different color so it really came out to be more like 72.

These embellishments can be elaborate or simple, even a cute little butterfly, cloud, or tag punched out is fun to send along.  

One months I sent along some fun die cute glasses and mustache, they got 2 glasses and 1 mustache person

Here is a sample of month month I got back.  Everything from punched out simple heart and circle shapes, to fun water colored feathers, and then a cute set of out door dies that include trees, a tent, moon, and a campfire!!

Here is a video where I stamped out imaged and water colored them as a more elaborate item to pass along.

The sky is the limit of what you can send, and it only costs a couple of stamps since all the items are mostly paper!!!  Now I have a ton of embellishments to use on my scrapbook pages, mini albums, card, tags, ATC, and more!!!

Thanks for stopping on by!!
