Made by Angela Palmer
One of the most exciting aspects of crafting is the joy of exploration—trying new techniques, combining unexpected colors, and seeing a design come to life in your hands. Angela Palmer’s team swap creation for January 2025 is a perfect example of how a single stamp set can inspire a world of creativity. Featuring the Terrific Toadstools stamp set from the Annual Catalogue 2025, Angela’s card captures the whimsy and charm of woodland magic, inviting crafters to play with layers, textures, and colors in innovative ways.
With soft Fresh Freesia, vibrant Melon Mambo, and earthy Granny Apple Green, this project proves that toadstools aren’t just for fairy tales—they can be the centerpiece of a stunning handcrafted card. Paired with Spotlight on Nature Dies and the Starstruck Embossing Folder, Angela has crafted a design that’s both playful and elegant, enhanced further by the Terrific Toadstools Builder Punch for added dimension.
Why We Do a Team Swap
Team swaps are more than just an exchange of beautifully crafted cards—they’re a celebration of collaboration, creativity, and inspiration. By sharing designs with fellow stampers, we not only showcase different techniques but also discover fresh perspectives on the same products. Each card becomes a spark of new ideas, encouraging us to see beyond the expected and push our creativity further.
Through team swaps, we build connections, celebrate artistry, and challenge ourselves to try new styles. Whether it’s testing a bold color palette or mastering a new embossing technique, these swaps remind us that crafting is a journey—one best traveled together.
