"Grow your BLOG" party!

Hello everyone 
and
WELCOME 
to
2 Bags Full
and my humble Blog!
Before I get to myself and what I do
I would like to thank Vicky at
for sponsoring this wonderful event.

I started "My Paper Daisy" in 2010 to share
all the little things I love to do and create.
The blog is a  little bit of everything but mostly my
love, or you could say,
my addiction to
stamping and card making!!!
Blogging sure has been an adventure
and opened a whole new world to me.
Over the last few years I met so many wonderful like minded
creative people who kept me inspired with
 their great ideas and most of all there incredible talent!

Before I take off and join the party
I would like to share some of my favorite cards with you.












Thank you so much for taking the time and stopping by!
I hope you like what you see and come back often!
Happy Blog Hopping!!!

Tea Cup Inspiration!

Good Monday to you all!
Today I would like to share a 
"Tea Cup" inspired
card with you.
 This little tea-cup beauty sits on a shelf in my stamp-room,
love the sweet little purple pansies on it,
a reminder of spring, 
when our backyard turns into a purple paradise!
 The background panel is stamped with flowers from
the Stampers Anonymous set "Heartfelt" and
dry embossed with musical notes.
I used a wire ribbon for the bow.
 The little panel was stamped with a 
Hampton Art stamp.
 Tiny purple flowers and rhinestones to add
color and sparkle.

I hope you enjoyed looking at my little tea-cup inspired card!
Can't wait for spring to get here
but it looks like it has to wait a bit longer
more snow and extremely cold temperatures
on the way for this area! Brrrr...
Hope you all have a great week
and maybe I will see you all back here next week
when I will be joining Viki Boster at
2 Bags Full

Thanks for stopping in!!!

A very Merry Christmas!

Hello to you all!
I'm very excited to share this years
Christmas Card with you.
As soon as I seen the stamps I knew what I wanted
the card to look like.
A little bit of vintage with a bit of shabby chic.
Some old linen strips made into a bow.
An old vintage tag.
Stamp by Inkadinkado.
I fell in love with this Jolly ol Santa the minute I seen him.
Couldn't wait to get my hands on the stamp and play.
Stamp from Stampin'Up! - Santa's List.
"Dear Santa" stamp is also from Inkadinkado.
A doily and some embellishments 
and the cards were ready to go in the mail.
With some luck they will make it to there destination 
in time for Christmas!

Now since the cards are mailed...
...the stockings are hung,
the presents are wrapped and
the tree and house is decorated
I think I will kick back a little
and enjoy the season with
family and friends!
I hope you be able to do the same!!!

Wishing you and yours a
very Merry Christmas,
peace and all the joys of the season!

Diana and Fam.

It looks a lot like...

... a Winter Wonder Land!
Hi everyone,
hope you all had a great start to the 
weekend!
Our's was a bit, "NO" a lot messy.
Mother Nature decided to deliver a 
little winter surprise.
Ice, snow, very slippery roads
and a snow day for my youngest son!
 I have to say the ice glazed trees looked very pretty.

 This unusual early winter weather really can put you in the 
Christmas spirit.
It sure does me and I
hope this means we are going to have 
a white Christmas this year!!!

Just a little card I made the other day.
 Lot's of layers in different shades of pink
and one of my crocheted flowers made
this very simple card just
pink-a-licious!
Stamp from "Hero Arts".

Thanks for stopping in,
hope you liked what you see
and come back often!!!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Birthday Kitty!

Hello 
and 
welcome back!
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
Things are finally slowing down a little,
the yard is been but to sleep and
looking out the window things are 
starting to look a bit bare,
just a few more stubborn leaves
holding on to the next stormy day.

Less yard work also means more time for me
to spend in my stamp-room
and more time to play a bit with my Cricut.
I created this 
quick and easy
"Birthday Kitty" card
with the
"Doodlecharms" cartridge.



Love using the cricut for fast and easy projects.
With fast I'm taking about 30 min. or less.
It usually takes me longer to pick the paper
and colors then putting it together. 

Hope you enjoyed this easy
"Birthday Kitty" card
and maybe you will try on yourself!
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Halloween!

Hello,
hope everyone is having a 
great start to the week!
I for myself am looking forward
to Thursday night...
"Halloween"
and
"Trick or Treat"
now we just have to convince the 
weatherman to come up with a
better forecast then a 80% change of
rain and thunderstorms.

 Well lets keep the fingers crossed so 
my little ghost treat bags can find 
some happy Trick or Treaters to go home with.

To all of you and your Families
a safe and happy
HALLOWEEN!!!

Diana
