I was having a lot of computer issues shortly after receiving my Stampin' Up! My Digital Studio Software a while back and just recently got a new computer and have been able to really sit down and explore it. I loved making the scrapbook pages but when I made a card with it, I really missed the "weight" of the card, and texture. (I'm a layering kind of girl, the more layers, the heavier the card, the better!)
Sooooooo....I started looking through all the stamp sets in the program (there are 61 stamp sets that come with it!!) and making a blank project with a bunch of images I didn't own. (Yes, there are stamps I don't own!) There are even exclusive sets. I then printed the image sheets off onto Whisper White and Very Vanilla Cardstock.
I then used these images to make a ton of cards and projects in no time flat! And not a stamp in sight!!
I made an image using the digital All in the Family and Nursery Neccessities sets and made this simple little card to give to a friend when her baby boy twins are due later this year. I colored the babies with my Stampin' Pastels and a Blender Pen.
This card was made with the digital Sweet Season Set and Merry Moments Designer Series Paper.
This is an adorable digital set called Cute Cat only on My Digital Studio, I made this for my Mother who loves Cats and loves purple! I embossed the background with my Big Shot and Small Dot Texturz Backgrounds 1 plate.
I made these gift tags with A Holly, Jolly Christmas set. I shrunk the star, Santa, and Stocking images to fit next to the To/From part and used the gridlines on the My Digital Studio desktop to make sure I left room for each tag to be punched out with my 1 3/8" Circle Punch. I then matted each on a coordinating Scallop Circle I punched from scraps.
Lastly, i made this little gift box from Kraft cardstock, a scrap of Merry Moments Designer Series Paper, some Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon, and Chocolate Chip cardstock punched with my Scallop Punch. I attached one of the gift tags to it using my hemp twine. I think it came out pretty cute!
How cool are these projects? It was super fast and easy to make all of these projects and I was so excited when I realized I could play with the program like that, it was like getting a giant box of stamps in the mail!!
