My Digital Studio: Scrapbook Page

Well this is my Scrapbook Page using Stampin' Up!'s: My Digital Studio!  I do have to say I am really loving this program more and more! I learn something new every time I use it!

It is very versatile from being able to use pre-set pages where all you do is add your picture, to being able to start from scratch to make your scrapbook page!  You can also use it to make cards, postcards, and much more! Also I have used it recently to create monograms for wedding invitations that I am making for my Uncle and his wonderful fiance. You will see those as soon as I get them done, and I said I would let them send them out first!

Autumn Days: Masculine Birthday

Do you have trouble with masculine cards? I know I sure do. So I set forth to come up with some masculine cards. It is also my favorite my favorite time of year so I pulled some of favorite Autumn Stamp Sets. Which included Autumn Days.

I first sponged the background with River Rock and then with the Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write Marker I drew two branches freehand. I then used the Chocolate Chip, Cherry Cobbler and Not Quite Navy Stampin' Write Markers to color the maple leaves. I then stamped the Pheasant in Chocolate Chip. I then sponged Not Quite Navy lightly around the outer edges. I then used Cherry Cobbler Cardstock to frame. I used the Stampin' Up! Cutter Kit to distress the edges. The designer paper in the background is Well Worn.

Framed Wall Art

This is a gift I made for my cousin Theresa , that is expecting her 1st baby this year! We are so very excited for them, and that got me thinking, (yes, I know very dangerous) what was I going to make!! Of course she would expect nothing less than something hand crafted being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. SO I started looking for ideas and had came across several "Family Frames" and such, then the light bulb moment came, they already had her name picked out to be Kaylie, I can make a frame and have her name in it!  So here is what I came up with! I love how it turned out!

At first I was going to do a 12"x12" layout, but after starting to do all the squares they seemed to fit better on a 8 1/2"x11", plus this benefited me as well, who knew it could be such a challenge to think of different layout/ designs for all these squares. I also wanted it to look a little worn, so with the Stampin' Up! Cutter Kit, I distressed all the edges of the Melon Mambo and the Flirtatious DSP. Then I sponged the edges of the Flirtatious DSP. Then on the Letters for her name I used the Lovely Letters Alphabet Set, I just love this set it is so elegant, it is hard to tell but I did different backgrounds behind the letters in the opposite color of what the letter was stamped. Then I used my 2-Way Glue Pen around the outer edge of the circles and put Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to make them pop out some more!

Here are a couple of close up shots!!

For the small "love" tag above & the "baby" tag below,  I used the Stampin' Up! Word Window Punch and then attached it to a post it note and put it back in the punch to make it smaller. Also below the little frame around the "baby tag" I used the Decorative Label Punch and did the same thing attaching a post note and turned to punch a smaller frame!
