Digital Creativity... just in time for the big sale!

With Stampin' Up starting their Online Extravaganza, and that including MDS downloads, I wanted to share a couple of projects I have made with it recently!   I initially got the 30 Day Free Trial, but at the prices this next week, I assure you that I will be buying MDS2.

I decided to make my own Facebook Covers, and have had so much fun doing it.  I actually did my current blog header with the regular version of MDS, but with MDS2 you get over $500 worth of downloads as well.   It is a must have if you are wanting to go digital!!

Here is my Thanksgiving version, which is currently on my FB page.

 
I just finished this one for Christmas, and love how you can make it so personal!!! 

Hope you have enjoyed these, and if you decide to take advantage of this incredible price, please let me know if you have any questions when you make your very own creations.  I am learning myself, but happy to help you all I can.

Go to my previous blog to see the prices being offered for TEN DAYS ONLY on MDS (My Digital Studio)!!

Simply Sent on your iPhone

Just released TODAY... Stampin' Up created a card-making application, and it is called Simply Sent! This iPhone app allows customers to create an e-card-from a template or completely on their own-and send it via e-mail or post it on Facebook. And it's free!

While it is not My Digital Studio on a mobile device, it will certainly give you a very small taste of all of the fun and creative things you can do with a full blown MDS download.  We want to get our name and our art out there so more people than ever before will know about Stampin' Up!

Download it from iTunes or the App Store.  After you create a card, you can send it by text message, email it, or share it on Facebook.  I just created this one, for my friend Christina who's birthday is tomorrow.  It took me less than 5 minutes. Try it out!

A Stocking Full of Wishes

We're so glad you could join us for this month's Pals Winter Wishes Blog Hop! We hope you have your holiday wish list ready because today the Stampin' Pretty Pals are sharing some fabulous cards and projects showcasing our must have wish list items! You've probably hopped over from Rae Harper at Wild West Paper Arts, I'm stop number 9 on the Pals Hop and I'm glad you hopped in! I'll help you "hop along" from blog to blog where you'll find great ideas for Stampin' Up! products from the Stampin' Pretty Pals! Should you hop off course, simply click on any of the links in the Pals Hop Line-up below and you'll be back on track.

I bought the Holiday Stocking Bigz L Die (124098) last year, but didn't find time to play with it like I wanted to.  I was so excited to see it in the 2012-2013 Full Catalog!!!  These little cuties will be seen on several of my gifts I give this year, some with the Stitched Felt items from last years Holiday Catty (we do have fun ornament ones this year, called Handmade Holidays Stitched Felt, #127832), and some with a stamped image, but all of them will have some kind of fun embossing on them.  I really like the look of the Perfect Polka Dots, but I think my favorite was when I used the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. Perfecto!!!! While I like the looks of the "toes" and "heels" that is also part of the Die, I thought the bottom one looked more "vintage" by keeping it simpler.

One of the must haves that should be on everyone's wish list is MDS2! Nicole Watt used the Snow Festival Countdown Template (128136), which is part of the Remember December Collection Disc (129836) to create the to create the beautiful badges for this hop. She used the recolor tool on the lights and stockings embellishments to customize the look.  Ask me if you want more details on MDS2!Now hop along for more inspiring ideas from Nicole Watt at Impressions by Nicole, stop number 10 on the Pals Winter Wishes Blog Hop!

Wonderfall Thanks

Life has been kind of crazy for me lately.
My blog posts have been few and far between, but I am back on my game now and plan on posting more regularly again.  Thanks for your patience!

I return with a Wonderfall card that I created for my boss.  While he has been as busy and as behind as me, he is still wanting to send thank you cards to the awesome people that made donations for our local Harley Party, a fundraiser for the Boys & Girls Club of Topeka.  We decided a Thanksgiving card would be appropriate.

I did a couple of different color combinations.  I just love working with these fall colors, and SU! Orchard Harvest DSP definitely stole my heart with their color palette. 

Island Indigo, Cajun Craze, Lucky Limeade, and Very Vanilla

More Mustard, Lucky Limeade, Raspberry Ripple, and Very Vanilla

Add the Wonderfall Stamp Set, Autumn Accents Bigz Die, and Woodgrain Embossing Folder, how could you go wrong?  For the sentiments, I used the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set with the Bitty Banners Framelits, and then moved to the inside of the card with a greeting from a retired set called Seasonal Sentiments.  I am loving the Framelits, and for the first time, used an Edgelit!  The Large Scallop Edglit was the perfect little touch I wanted under the DSP background strip.

Get Your NEW Stampin' Trimmer NOW

I have used mine, and LOVE IT!!!  Will have it at the next crop you see me at, if you want to try it out!!

Introducing the new and improved Stampin' Trimmer! Although paper trimmers are a common crafting tool, this trimmer was designed exclusively by paper crafters for paper crafters-and because it was made by Stampin' Up!, you know it's a cut above the rest!
Features of the All-New Stampin' Trimmer

• An extra-wide 6-1/4" cutting base and an extended 14-1/2" ruler
  • The extra-wide cutting base provides a large work area and is marked in 1/4" (4 mm) increments, allowing for small measurements. 
  • The right-side grid helps you measure and cut very thin strips.
  • The extended cutting arm has a stabilizing leg to provide a sturdy and steady cutting surface for longer cuts. 
  • When fully extended, the extended cutting arm sits flush with the trimmer base, providing more accurate and consistent measurements across the entire surface.
  • The cutting base and track include a full ruler, incorporating measurements down to 1/16" and grid lines that mark each quarter inch. 
  • All rulers and measurements on the base are printed under a plastic cover so your measurements won't wear off.
  • The base has nonskid feet, which keeps the Stampin' Trimmer securely in place on your work area.
• A full 12" cutting and scoring track
  • The extra-long cutting track has space at the top and bottom so you don't have to take the cutting and scoring blades out when you're not using them. 
  • The track gives you enough space to cut or score a full 12" (30.5 cm) without having to remove or switch out handles. 
  • The cutting track locks in place for secure storage or transport. 
  • The track includes an insertion point for cutting and scoring blade handles so you can easily insert handles into the cutting track.
• Specially designed handles and cutting track to ensure straight cuts
  • The hook on the scoring and cutting blade handles keeps the handles stable so the cuts are as straight as possible.
  • Handles come in two colors: dark for cutting, light for scoring. 
  • The precision tip on the cutting blade allows you to pinpoint precisely where you're cutting.
  • The point on the side of each handle shows you where the blade will cut, making it easy to see exactly where your cuts and scores will begin.
• Storage compartment under base
  • The storage compartment holds scoring and cutting tools such as a Bone Folder, Simply Scored Stylus, extra scoring and cutting blades, and even business cards. 
  • Separate compartments within the storage compartment keep your tools organized, and the clear cover makes it easy to see what you've stored.
• Product details: item 126889; $29.95
