TWO PAPER DIVAS Design Team Card - PEACE SNOWMAN





Love this new snowman stamp ....... thanks to Two Paper Divas!!  This chunky glitter is awesome as a background.  I stamped on watercolor paper with Versafine black ink and then embossed with the "clear" embossing powder.  Using my Tombow watercolor pens ..... the snowman got his personality.
My clear Wink of Stella pen gave it all its final touch.  Happy Card Making!!!

TWO PAPER DIVAS DESIGN TEAM CARD - Just hangin around!


What a darling set of stamps from Two Paper Divas.  This one can be found on their website and under the clear stamps titled "Branching Out".  I love Birdies and so do my weekly students.  This set has 11 stamps to choose to make a very fun creation.  This is the funniest little "fat bird" - thanks Mel and Gayla!!

All the goodies in the picture kinda tells the story of product which I used, beyond the mentioned TPD stamps.  The little container of sequins came from who knows where.  BUT, I have 72 of those filled with sequins and stones and they are all held in one flat container with a secure top and that is my favorite purchase this summer!!!  I found it on Amazon.  Ask me if I need another one ..... you betcha!!!

Hope that you have fun with this cute stamp set!!!

TWO PAPER DIVAS DESIGN TEAM CARD - Mts. and Birdies all lined up



I will be back to do this write up!!!   Trying to finish up cards for 12 students on Tuesday!!  Okay ... I am back.  It is Sunday morning and it is cloudy and off and on rainy.  I cannot see our beautiful Mountains out our kitchen window (or any window on the front of the house for that matter).  So,  I at least can enjoy the Mts. which are on this card.

Being a Designer for TWO PAPER DIVAS I always like to dig in my "stash" of wonderful stamps by these two creative genius of TPD (Gayla and Melissa).  This card is no exception ..... the Mts. were created several years ago because of my students living among these gorgeous San Juans and they needed a Mt. stamp.  So as they say .... "wallah" !!  Melissa, Gayla and Rene (Melissa's trusty Manager of her paper crafting store at the time in Kansas City) along with the "Road Trip Gals" from Kansas were out here in our beautiful Pagosa Springs, CO and were doing a RETREAT for our Crafty Gals here when the idea of the Mts. became necessary.  Lots of memories and so much fun.

Okay, I am finished reminiscing ....... here are the three stamps sets which are used for this simple card:

TWO PAPER DIVAS:  Christmas Clothesline; Wanna Hang Out & Mountains

StampinUp:  The punch - have always loved this punch!

Now it is time for me to eat breakfast and get dressed and start my day of finishing up THE cards for Tuesday's classes.  Have a great rest of your weekend!!!
