Card Swap Chain Blog Hop – Inspiring Imperfection

We have recently finished another round of the “Card Swap Chain”. It is a card version of what is called “Chinese Whispers” in Australia (we called it “Broken Telephone” in South Africa). Each of us designed a card (round 1) and sent it off to one of the other participants. That person CASE-d (Copy And Share Everything / Copy And Selectively Edit) the card and send their version on to the next person. The card made its way around until finally a version came home to the maker. We are now doing a series of blog hops for each of the card designs to share the fun and amazement at the evolution.

This blog hop is showcasing my chain. I started the chain with an easy fun fold card.

I made this card on a Facebook live a while ago and thought it would be a fun one for a chain. I have written up a tutorial for this card – you can download it here

You can watch the video of the assembly of the card below

I am writing this blog post early as I will be away when it goes live, so I haven’t seen the progression of this chain.

Sometimes the cards change so much that if you only saw the first and the last card, you wouldn’t think that they are on the same chain other times you can see the family resemblance between the first and last card. Follow the chain through you will see how the changes happened.
