Let's Ketchup Soon!

 

This is my card for a newer swap called the SIS--Surprise Image Swap.   This is card #4 and it is the same premise as before with the UIS or mystery image swap. The group will be a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same image, sent to us by the hostess.  The surprise part is that we are to not discuss the image at all until the day they are to be posted--the 18th of every other month.   The image for this round was provided by Carol.  She will swap the cards and include the new image for round #5 that Laura Jean stamps in everyone's return envie. Then--we do it all again in October!

Carol sent everyone two images and a number of sentiments from a stamp set from Hampton Arts/Tracey Hey.  I colored the sweet dachshund image with my Copic Sketch Markers.  I did cut the image and the black frame, along with the sentiment with my Gina K Designs Master Layouts 2.  The patterned papers in the background are from Basic Grey called Max and Whiskers-Goldie. I have had these papers forever as I loved all lines of Basic Grey when I first started stamping.   I added some brown jewels from The Ton as the final touch.  

Here is the inside of my cards with a strip of the patterned paper:

If you check some of the other blogs listed on my sidebars, you may find some other swappers who have posted their creations.  The due date is today, the 18th, or they may post in the upcoming days. You can also check out SCS and use the keyword SIS04 to see some posted there.  I hope everyone in the swap likes my card--and that you do too!
