Twofer Challenge #31.

Hello everyone: As always, my prayers and sincere hope that you and your families are doing well in these very difficult times we are living. I'm also praying for some very much needed CHANGE hopefully, very soon.

God Bless us all.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's no secret that The Twofer Card Challenge is one of my favorites. I've been participating since the very first one, I think Darnell had the best idea for a challenge ever!! Besides working your noodle to its maximum potential, you end up with two cards, very cleverly created with the fun thems the fabulous ladies from the DT come up with every month.

Here are my cards together.


This is the first one.


The pine trees are from a very old SU set called "Lovely as a Tree", (2002) the cute little camper is from a Flourishes set called "S'more Fun" (2013), the birds are from another SU set called "Up, Up and Away" (2011-2012)
The camper was stamped on Canson Mix Media paper, colored with Prismacolor pencils and fussy cut.

This is the inside.


The sentiment and banner are from the Flourishes set.

************************************************
Here's my Twofer.


I used the pine tree from "Lovely as a Tree" to create a Christmas swag, I die cut a couple of pine cones, the bow and the golden branches from the SU set called "Pretty Pines" (retired)
The sentiment is from another SU set called "Christmas Lodge" (2011-2012).

The sentiment is from a set called "Nesties Ornaments" by Sparkle N Sprinkle".

I want to play with the following challenges.



Thank you for visiting me today.
Stay healthy, safe and please wear your masks.

Incrdiible both cards! I had to look close to see you use the SU! Tree in your second card how clever! I love that slimline style and the interior greeting font just beautiful! The camper is so much fun! You have a gift for making scenes for these fabulous sets of Stamps!

What a choice I would have to make to choose my favorite ! Both of your cards are special. One is cute and one is elegant !
Really pretty coloring on your camper one ! Love the trees used as a beautiful background for your pine cones .

Fabulous, Maria! I still have that set, too. So cute with the vintage trailer. You know it speaks to my outdoor loving camper's heart. I never in a million years would have thought to use the tree as you did in your Christmas card. It really works for a slimline card. Gosh, that's pretty!

Two FABULOUS and different cards Maria!! I still use (and love!) the Lovely As A Tree set, so very glad to see you still use it too! Your little camper card is just as sweet as can be and your coloring is wonderful and I LOVE the inside sentiment! Your Christmas card WOW's me Maria...absolutely LOVE how you used the trees as a swag and aam quite jealous that I never thought of that! YAY to you for using your noodle!! Thanks so much for joining us at The Twofer Challenge!! :0)

I am loving your sweet scene with the camper in the woods. So darling. Your holiday card is fab as well. Using your tree as greenery is fabulous! Thank you for playing along with us at Twofer Card Challenge 31.

You're always so kind with your compliments about TCC, Maria, and I am so appreciative. Mwah! You used my first ~ and still favorite ~ SU stamp for your prompt. It looks majestic as a backdrop for your adorable camper. (Is it just me or does that camper have a sweet face with two eyes and a nose where the spare tire is? lol!) And it was very inventive of you to make the tree tops a swag for your pretty pine cone Christmas decoration! As always, well done on the insides, too! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #31! Keep well and keep strong! Hugs, Darnell
