Making a hybrid card for a swap

 
 
For my second card to swap this Saturday, I decided to create a new My Digital Studio Hybrid.  Here is how you can do what I did to make a hybrid card.........

 1.  The first step is to create a background piece for your hybrid card.  I found a card I liked on My Digital Studio templates, eliminated the bird and branch elements, and the saying.  Then I changed the colors a little from the original and sent this design off to StampinUp to be printed.

 
 
2.  When the background came back from being printed I trimmed it up and  added items that I thought made the card look good.  
 
     Scalloped circle punches
     Dotted Scallop border punch
     Delicate Details lace tape
     A Round Array stamp set ( A sneak peak stamp set you can order now that will be in the new catalog.
      Rhinestone
 
Notice how the first card differs from the Hybrid card I made a month or so ago.  Same background, totally different look.
 
 
  Sam told me he liked this card better than the first card.  Which one is your favorite and why?

  2. Thanks, I like that one the best also, but had to try something else with the background. Glad you like the blog header it took forever. Notice I have extra pages now.
