Damask Divas Timberline Blog Hop

Welcome to Keepable Paper Creations - a place where your creations are always "keepers".  You have "landed" on my contribution to the Damask Divas Timberline Blog Hop for June.  My name is Brenda Zimmerman, and I am an Independent Consultant with Close To My Heart.  I hope you are enjoying all of the fabulous ideas coming your way!

If you came from Jamie Blades' page, you're in the right place.  If you've just discovered our blog hop, feel free to check out our Damask Divas Blog to find the complete list of blog hop participants.

With Father's Day right around the bend, I thought I'd make a card for him!  And guess what!... it bends :).  This is a "Twisted Easel" style card, and, since I'm a big fan of Mary at CardsTV, I took her measurements and direction to create this awesome "keeper".

I used Close To My Heart's Timberline Paper Pack along with the fabulous "You're the Best" Holiday Stamp Set to give a sense of retro coziness.  The cool trailer is from my Cricut Explore their "Campin Critters" cartridge and cut this cutie out myself!

...and do you know what else I learned?  I now know how to get words and shapes together - where I want them!... Just look at my postage stamp !  Have I told you lately that I just LOVE my Explore machine?  I do... I really really do!

This finished "Twisted Easel" card is so much fun to make!  It's SUPER easy, and it lets you do pretty much whatever you want to it.  I also played around with our NEW CTMH Embossing Folders to give the colored cardstock some pizazz!

I hope you try YOUR hand at a "Twisted Easel" Card soon.  But, 

until you decide to "jump in", head out to peruse the rest of the 

b-e-a-U-tiful concoctions my fellow Divas have come up with (see blog mapping below)!
