My Digital Studio downloads and project

Hello Stampers!  Welcome to My Digital Studio Tuesday!  This is going to be an exciting post, so be sure to read all the way to the bottom!!!  It contains FREE stuff!!

Do you know what I really love about My Digital Studio?  The fact that I can take pictures and even though I may be out of town, or just super busy,  I can still get them scrapbooked!  And I don't have to worry about forgetting information I want to journal about either! 

Today I want to show you two of my pages I made for the Thanksgiving pictures I took this year!

These pages were super easy to do.  I simply used one of the photo templates and just added my own designer series paper for the backgrounds, added my journaling, dropped in my photos, and I was done!  LOVE it!

Polka Dot Parade thank you card

Hello Stampers!  Well, I promised a picture of my family wearing our headbands that the kids made for Thanksgiving.  Here is it:

We had a great time wearing them and laughing at each other during our meal!  Can you see the little turkeys on our plates?  Here's a close-up picture of them:

Aren't they cute?  Well, now for a card, the real reason you are visiting my blog!

This is another card that we made during our November group meeting.  Remember, our theme was thank you cards.

Julie W. designed this card for us to make.  I love the Polka-dot Parade designer series paper (126902).  My favorite part about this card though is all of the little tags we added to the card with a safety pin!  We made several tags mainly using the Tiny Tags stamp set (w-118091 c - 118592) and punched them out with the Jewelry Tag punch (117190).

Don't forget about the Online Extravaganza going on until Wednesday, November 28th! 

And on November 28th only, three additional items will be 20% off!

Merry Minis Christmas card

Hello Stampers!  I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with your families!

I wanted to share with you another card that we made at my group meeting this month. 

Alice Marie brought this card for us all to make.  I love the Merry Minis stamp set (w-127916 c-127919) especially since it has the coordinating Merry Mini punch pack (126882). 

The background has been embossed with the Big Shot Die-Cut Machine (113439) and the new Lacy Brocade embossing folder (127819) which is in the Holiday catalog.  Very pretty!

Don't forget about the Online Extravaganza that is going on right now!  Stampin' Up! products from 20% - 50% off!

 

Happy Thanksgiving

Hello Stampers!  I hope that you are all enjoying a fabulous Thanksgiving with your families! 

Of course we had to add a craft into the holiday mix today!  I downloaded the Unknown Blessings Ensemble (131311) for My Digital Studio 2.  It has templates to make Indian headbands and name tents among other things. 

I printed off several pages of templates and set the kids to work. 

Here is some of the items they have come up with so far:

Later I will show you a picture of the family with our headbands on!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Sizzix Texture Boutique Embossing Machine

Hello Stampers! Stampin' Up! is carrying a new machine!

Due to our partnership with Sizzix, we are pleased to be able to offer a test run of the Texture Boutique Embossing Machine. We have 4,000 available to be sold only while supplies last. If this product test goes well, we may offer the Texture Boutique again in the future.

The Texture Boutique works with Textured Impressions Embossing Folders to transform ordinary cardstock, paper, metallic foil, or vellum into an embossed, textured masterpiece. This machine embosses only; it does not die cut. Because this is a product test, the Texture Boutique is not branded with the Stampin' Up! logo. It comes in Sizzix packaging and is the same color and design that is sold in stores. We recommend you read the included instructions before using the Texture Boutique.

 

'Tis the season of giving, and the Texture Boutique makes a wonderful gift for anyone who wants to create their own elegant embossed art. To help you with your gift-giving needs, we're offering a special value bundle that saves you $5.90. If you prefer, you can also purchase the Texture Boutique alone. Looking for stocking stuffers? Pick up some additional embossing folders.

Ornament Keepsake Bundle card

Hello Stampers!  Don't forget about our spectacular Online Extravaganza that starts today!

And remember that there are three items that are on sale for 20% off just for today!

Page      Item              Description               Retail Price      24-Hour Sale Price
 
181     125586      Simply Scored Diagonal Plate       $11.95                 $9.56
 
186     113439      Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine       $99.95                 $79.96

186     113474      Big Shot Doctor's Bag              $69.95                 $55.96

Isn't this a pretty card?  This is a card that we made at my group meeting this month.  There were five individuals who volunteered to bring a shoebox swap for all in attendance.  This is the card that Karen brought for us to make.  I love the Ornament Keepsakes Bundle (w-129949 c- 129950) in the Holiday catalog! 

One fun thing about this card is how it saves paper and highlights the ornament both!  You need to stamp the ornament on the Whisper White cardstock shown.  You cut it out using the Framelit die and adhere it over the top of the cut out space using dimensionals.  This not only pops up the ornament, but highlights the object since you can see the red cardstock peeking out around the edges!  Great idea Karen!

Now, hop over to my Inkin With Dink online store and take advantage of the Holiday Extravaganza specials and the TODAY ONLY specials!

Fancy Fan thank you card

Hello Stampers!  I received a beautiful card in the mail a couple of weeks ago. 

My friend Lisa made this card for me!  She is so sweet!  Don't you think that the Fancy Fan embossing folder (127751) makes cards look so elegant!!!  Thanks Lisa!

More Christmas card swaps

Hello Stampers!  Today I will show you the rest of the Christmas card swaps from my group.

This pretty card was made by Teresa.  She used the Jolly Bingo Bits stamp set (w-120857 c-121187).

This fun card was made by Karen!  I love the fun fold of this card!  The gingerbread is from the Scentsational Season stamp set (w-121026 c-121190) and the coordinating Holiday Collection Framelits (127814).  This is another one of those specials that if you purchase both items at the same time (w-129945 c-129946) you can save 15%! 

This is the card that I made for the swap.  I got this idea to fill in the punched objects with strips of ribbon at Convention this year!  I love the way it turned out! 

Don't forget about the Ink-credible special going on this month!  Contact me to get your private class scheduled today!

Christmas card swap

Hello Stampers!  Recently my group held a Christmas card swap.  Want to see some of the cards we received?

This pretty card was made by Carol.  Can you see all of the rhinestone bling on the Christmas tree?  The tree is from the Lovely As a Tree stamp set (w-115026 c-127793).  Gotta love that bling!

This fun card was made by Anne.  I LOVE the way she used the ornament punch from the Merry Minis punch pack (126882) to thread the ribbon through!  Very clever!

This beautiful card was made by Lynn.  We have all been having so much fun making these triple layer cards!  She used the Ornament Keepsakes stamp set (w-126048 c-128051) and the coordinating Holiday Ornaments Framelits die (127816).  Love these!  And if you purchase them both at the same time (w-129949 c-129950) you can save 15%!

This beautiful card was made by Julie W.  She used a retired stamp set, which I'm sorry but I can't remember the name of it right now!

Come back tomorrow to see the rest of the cards from our swap!
