T stands for Playing with Paper....

Enjoying time in the Craft Room... Several years ago i was gifted some long envelopes in the hope i could do something with them.. Well this is what i came up with... The sun is my drawing and everything else is a stamp..The base is a file folder and the colored paper is scrapbook paper.. FUN! And it gave my stamps a much needed work out.. They don't get used near enough.. The coffee in the much loved coffee mug is the ticket to enter Elizabeth's T party... Hugs! deb 

* I've just realized the way i wrote this has led a few people to think that i decorated the envelope. But if you read, it says the 'base' is a file folder. So what i created is a card to go inside the envelopes i was given.... hope that makes sense now... lol

    Good morning-early, I seem to be waking up super early this month. I love your envelopes! Stamping is so fun-I have not been in my craft room at all since Larry's accident hoping soon my muse will give me a shove.
    Happy new week and Thanksgiving
    Hugs Kathy

    Your creativity is shining bright in the Craft Room! Turning long envelopes into a masterpiece with stamps and scrapbook paper is such a clever idea. The sun drawing adds a personal touch. Thanks for sharing. Happy T Tuesday!

    Don't you just LOVE file folders? They take a beating, lots of paint and ink, and lots of glue, too. These cards are remarkable. Thanks for sharing them and your coffee with us for T this Tuesday, dear Deb. And thanks again for the gift you sent me!!!

    Dear Deb, at first I also would have interpreted it to mean that you designed the envelopes - but regardless of whether they are envelopes or cards :-D - your works look wonderful, very harmonious in terms of the colors and designs. You have great stamps, glad they got work!
    Happy T-Day!
    All the best and have a nice week, Traude
