My Digital Studio

I got My Digital Studio - Stampin' Up's Digital software program - for my birthday this year and it's been so much fun to play with!! I made a flyer for an upcoming church event and have just loved the ease of use and all the images and options!! If you're a digital scrapbooker or crafter, this program is awesome!!


Here's my flyer with the Baroque Motif image along the bottom!

This was just a fun page I made. I love that you can put in digital ribbons!! My bows are never that perfect!! LOL!

Valentine Cards for My Kiddos

I made these cute cards for my kids using the You're My Type set from the new Occasions Mini catalog. It's available till the end of April and you really should snap it up if you like it! It's one of my all time favorite sets!! Adorable!!

January Projects

My husband came home for a month in December and I didn't get Christmas cards sent out so I decided to mail out some New Year's cards!!


Really simple. I punched the snowflake, glued paper behind it and stamped the sentiment (from Teeny Tiny Wishes). I love my corner rounder punch and had to do that as well for the finishing touch! :)

All done and ready to mail!!

Here are some quick 3x3 thank you notes I made...

And some Owl thank you's that my daughter made to give out to her friends!! Pretty cute! She's following in my footsteps as a stamper!!

Card Display Boards!

I found these at my favorite store... Rod Works!! They hold a bunch of cards and make a really fun display!! :)

 

 

 

Address Book Project

I've been meaning to redo my address book. Being a military family means we add a lot of new names to it everywhere we go and my old one was getting quite full. So, I saw a fun idea somewhere (sorry to whomever had the idea... I'm not recalling where I saw it!!) to use business card holders and a three ring binder! That way you can always add more to it!! I hit the local office supply store and bought a little green binder, some business card holders, dividers, pockets and markers.



I cut a bunch of white cardstock down to 31/2 x 2 and started copying over the addresses.

I love the pocket in the front where I can keep stamps and a pen...

So easy to read, change, add to - whatever!

And pockets for all the miscellaneous postage supplies!
I love how it turned out!! Now I just need to make cute cover for it!!

Christmas Banner

I made this darling banner for my sister-in-law for Christmas!!! I think the white burlap is adorable with the red snowflakes. I used red glitter on them too, but it's hard to see... Very fun gift!
