My Digital Studio!

It's HERE!!!!!

I am just sooooooo excited for you all! This has been a long time waiting since Stampin' Up! announced that they would be producing a digital program. Well, the wait is finally over!

I've had my copy for a little while now,and I haven't had as much time to play as I would like to, but let me tell you that the little time I have had on it has been amazing! I was able to produce some pages for a friend form the photos that she sent through of her daughter's first day in pre-school in about 5 minutes! Really!

It comes complete with all of these fantastic pre-finished layouts, all ready to just drop your photos into. Then there are the hundreds of SU stamp images that it comes with. AND they have teamed up with professional printing companies to make sure that your colors are true to SU! so that you can easily make hybrid pages!

Yes - I am very excited!!!(You can tell because the !!! are getting more frenzied!!!) But wait - there's even more!!!! Host a workshop with a $400 total, and you can get if half price. That's only $40!!!! Amazing value!!!

Call me quick to book in so you can start creating your fabulous pages with MDS right away!!!

Hugs

12 weeks of Christmas - week 1

Can you believe that it's only 12 weeks until Christmas?

Stop freaking out now and get ready with me! For the next 12 weeks, I'll be posting a special Christmas project so that we can get ready together!

This is our first project - a sparkly card using our fantastic glitter. It uses the Medallion background stamp again, stamped on with Versamark and then had Stamp and Stick Powder sprinkled over it (the same way that you would use embossing powder)

When you use the Heat and Stick powder it becomes VERY sticky and then you can sprinkle the glitter over it. Heat the image again and the glitter settles into the glue and it stays put! No glitter trail wherever the card goes!!!

It's hard to see in this photo - but the glitter matches the Old Olive card stock perfectly!

Let me know if there is anything that I can help you with as we get ready for Christmas this year!

Hugs
Megan
