Two Paper Divas

Time again for another card made with my new Two Paper Diva stamps.  I am still in the valentine mode so I used the set called "Sending Love".  A friend of mine is collecting Valentine cards for Ronald McDonald house so I am trying to make up a few to give her.

For the card today I decided to go pretty clean and simple.  The mailbox is just adorable.  I finally got to use some of my washi tape that I bought.  I love the look of it and just need to use it more often.
Be sure and check back next week because I am thinking Green next week.

Two Paper Divas

Today I have another fun card that I made using the Two Paper Divas stamp set called You Are My Sunshine.

I used the hot air balloon stamp and paper pieced it.  These pastel colors just remind me of spring.  The Just Sayin sentiment is another new stamp set from Two Paper Divas called Sassy Sayings.

So be sure and check out all the new stamps at Two Paper Divas.  Their sets are expanding all the time.

Meljens Designs Challenge #244 - Let It Snow

Time again for another challenge over at Meljens Designs.  The challenge today was "Let It Snow".  So I went to my favorite snowman stamp called Christmas Star Snowman.  I just love this digital stamp. 
I fussy cut him out and stamped the Merry Christmas at the bottom.  I added stickles to the red, green and snow edges which I think makes the card pop.  So now I can say I have made my first Christmas card for 2015.  Only 99 more to reach my goal.  LOL!

Sketch Saturday Week #344

Today I am sharing a card that I made with a group that I am in at Splitcoast Stampers.  It is such a fun group to be in.  This month Imke chose this darling AI stamp called Yoga Yolanda.  I just love their stamps because they are so fun.  The older I get, the more I appreciate these stamps.  They always make you smile.

I was having a hard time deciding what to do with this image and I came across the Sketch Saturday challenge this week and thought it would work perfect for this card.  It has been a while since I have entered any challenges but thought this would be fun.

Enjoy the card and check out the other cards that were designed using the sketch below.

Two Paper Divas

Yep - 2 posts in one day.  I can't believe it either.  I have been having so much fun with the new release stamps from Two Paper Divas.  One of my favorite stamp sets this month is "You are My Sunshine".  It has so many fun elements to the stamp set. 
More exciting news for Two Paper Divas is that they now carry their stamps at Archivers online.  I am so thrilled to be part of this team.  The owners of Two Paper Divas are the nicest people you will ever meet. They have added some new design team members so be sure and check out their blog for inspiration.

DT Day with Tracie

Can you believe that January is half over?  Wow, time is moving quickly.  I heard somewhere that we have 5 Fridays before spring.  Warm weather doesn't seem far away when you look at it that way. 

Today is my design team day at Meljens Designs.  Since Valentines day is right around the corner, I decided to use my day to make a valentine card.  I used the adorable stamp called Box of Chocolates.  I think I must of been hungry for chocolate at the time.  I am just waiting for a box of chocolates to be delivered to my door.
So be thinking of valentines day and getting those cards completed.  It will be here before you know it.

Meljens Designs Challenge #242 Winter Color

I hope everyone had a nice holiday.  It sure was nice having a break from design team work and just enjoy the holidays.  The design team is back in force at Meljens Designs.  We have a new challenge today which is to use the Winter Colors below.
These are just gorgeous colors but since I am not a fan of winter, I decided to use a summer look to my card.  I used the digital stamp called Daisy Pitcher for my card.
Be sure and check out the other cards from the design team at Meljens Challenge blog.

Two Paper Divas

Happy 2015.  Another year comes around.  As I leave Christmas behind me, I think ahead to the next holiday which is Valentine's day.  I do not send alot of cards out on that day but since I love hearts, these sure are fun to make.
For today's card I used the stamp set from Two Paper Divas called "Sending Love".  This is such a fun set because of all the different elements to the set.  Last week you noticed I used the same set with a totally different look.  The sentiment was from the stamp set called Mason Jars Access #2.

What a fun start into the New Year.  I hope 2015 brings everyone much happiness and lots of creativity.  I am so excited for the new year to begin.
