From Our Home to Yours

Two Paper Divas just released new stamps for the month of December and I have the privilege of sharing one with you.  Check out this cute Postcard stamp!  
I used a rustic printed paper for the background and then added kraft paper behind the postcard and roughed up the edges to give it an older look.  I then added a poinsettia die cut and popped each layer adding a pearl to the center and a leaf stick pin.  
I used the Snowy Greetings stamp from the Warm Winter Wishes set and finished with some pom pom ribbon and a couple buttons with lace.  A simple, but sweet Christmas card for that special someone on your list.

Hope you are staying warm!  Thanks for checking out Kirby's Kards, I appreciate it!

Make it a great day!

Ho Ho Ho!

I just love this time of year with all the Christmas lights and decorations!  So much fun!  In keeping with the spirit of Christmas, I wanted to share a card I made using one of the newer stamps from Two Paper Divas called Ho Ho Ho.  Who doesn't love a cute, jolly, Santa card?  
I started with some polka dots and striped papers for the background and topped it with a tag using some Christmas music.  I cut out the Santa stamp and colored his hat with copics.  I used glitter for the fur on his hat and wink of stella for his mustache and beard.  I cut out the Ho Ho Ho stamp and popped it.  I added a red bow with a little greenery and pearls, some green rick rack and a button to the top of the tag.
Thanks for stopping by Kirby's Kards!

The Stockings Were Hung

We've been decking the halls this week at our house!  We turned on a Christmas special on TV, made some popcorn and worked on getting all the decorations up.  Just have the tree left!  I wanted to pop in and share a cute stocking tag I made using a digital image from Two Paper Divas.  I've been wanting to use stockings for a while now, so I hope you enjoy my creation!  
I started with a kraft paper tag and added a polka dot printed paper to the background and topped it with a December bingo card.  I then added some silver tinsel, red scalloped trim and a little cream pom pom to the bottom.  I added a couple festive buttons and a green plaid bow with twine and jingle bell.  The focal point of this tag is definitely the three stockings.  I started by using the digital image   called Holiday Greetings.  I adjusted the stockings to the size I wanted for my tag.  I then printed them on various papers and cut them out.  I popped them and added mini clothespins for a little 3-D effect!  
Thanks for stopping by Kirby's Kards today!  I sure hope you are getting in a little time to be creative!

Make it a great day!

Baby, it's cold outside!

I wanted to share a different penguin card I made this week.  I started with some fun, more traditional Christmas patterned papers.  I added a couple scalloped trims, a paper doily and that oh so cute little penguin.  He's from the Two Paper Divas Penguin stamp set.  I'm a big fan of scarves, so I especially love his scarf!
I added a cute bow with a star, twine and a little red jingle bell.  Isn't the "Baby, it's cold outside" saying sweet??!!  It's also from Two Paper Divas Warm Winter Wishes stamp set.

May we all be reminded of our many blessings this Thanksgiving holiday. 

Make it a great day!

Penguins on Parade

I just couldn't wait to play with this new Penguin stamp from Two Paper Divas.  Isn't he so cute?  
I started with some sweet, winter patterned papers with trees in the background and added a white  paper doily, a yellow patterned paper doily and then the adorable, little penguin.  I stamped him on an ivory snowflake paper and then colored the black and yellow sections with copics.  The scarf and hat are cut from printed papers.  I just love him!  I used the "Snowy Greetings" stamp from stamp set Warm Winter Wishes, which is running vertically on the right side.  To finish this card off, I added a few snowflakes with pearls, a seam binding bow with pink and silver twine and a jingle bell. 

Sure hope you are able to spend some cozy time with a cup of hot cocoa in front of the fireplace.

Make it a great day!

Candy Anyone?

Who took the candy from the candy jar?  Well...probably me!  I do love a good, sweet treat!  I wanted to share a fun birthday card with you using the Candy Jar stamp set from Two Paper Divas.  I decided to go with a pink theme on this card and I colored the candy two shades of pink.  I couldn't resist using some polka dot paper for this card as well!!!  I love these jars, the possibilities are endless and Two Paper Divas is releasing new jar inserts every so often too!  Can't beat that!  The "Celebrate" stamp is from their Everyday Sentiment set.
Thanks for stopping by Kirby's Kards today!  I hope you are getting a little creativity time in before the holidays!

Make it a great day!

Chilly Days Call for Hot Cocoa

Well, the colder weather has certainly hit our neck of the woods.  Bryan and I have already made hot cocoa (with marshmallows of course!)  So on that note, here's my creation for the week using the "You Warm My Heart" stamp set from Two Paper Divas.  
I started with some cute pink patterned papers and added a doily and scalloped circle.  I just thought this mug with whipped goodness looked so yummy!  I added some glossy accents and glitter to the cream and little peppermint sticks.  I finished it off with a couple buttons with lace and the saying "You Warm My Heart."

Hope you are having a great week!  This time change has messed me all up! :)  Thanks for stopping by Kirby's Kards!

Make it a great day!
