Well, here in Alaska it is still Tuesday…LOL! The new My Digital Studio downloads released for purchase today feature a Fall theme. There are a couple of Halloween stamp brush sets and a couple of different Halloween themed designer series papers. There also are a couple of Thanksgiving and general Fall kits as well as an alphabet stamp brush set. Click here to see the new downloads and order them. They are located on the right-hand side of my online storefront.

Now I like to usually purchase one of the new downloads so I can create possibilities for the download for you. I am not really big on Halloween but felt I shouldn't completely ignore the holiday so I ordered the Pick Your Poison Designer Series Paper – digital download since several of the designs would work well for other times. Since the designs of these papers are quite intricate, the download takes quite a while. I just wanted you to know so you wouldn't try to download it just before leaving the house for an appointment. I had to cancel my download at least twice because I didn't have enough time to get it completed. Yes, you can stop a download and then download the file at another time. To order any of the components I used to make this card, just click on the name of the item to take you to my oline store.

Pick Your Poison Designer Series Paper digital download (125609)

First, Happy Labor Day! I hope you are having a safe and good time with family and friends. Our theme for today is Labor Day but I drew a complete blank on what to create for that theme. I know many are taking this last weekend of summer to go camping so I thought I would do a camping theme scrapbook page.

When we were young and first married, we enjoyed camping out with a tent and campfire. As we have aged, we have come to enjoy our creature comforts so much that we don't want to give them up even for a weekend. So we have graduated over the years to a 5th wheel trailer so we can 'camp' in comfort. This is a picture of our current truck and trailer the day we became proud owners of it. Eight years later the trailer is still serving us well.

I used stamps from Under the Stars Stamp Brush Set and Happy Camper Stamp Brush Set for this 8" x 8" scrapbook page. The background is from Green Tea Designer Series Paper. To order the supplies to create a scrapbook page using your own photos, just click on the items to be taken to my online store.

Now it is your turn to share how and where you like to go camping by leaving a comment!

Supplies:

Until the next time you visit….

Today, I started back to work at school so posting for Terrific Tuesdays will have to be later in the day than I would like. I am doing well just to get the time before school to see what the new My Digital Studio downloads are and don't have time to do any creating with them. Now that I have more time…here is what I created with the new Kindness Matters Stamp Brush Set. 

I love the font of the sayings and the crocheted doilies are right in style. The download calls them rope but they sure look like crochet to me. I added the Vintage Overlays Stamp Brush Set  texture 6 to give this card a shabby chic look. Click here to see the new downloads and order the ones you know you need! As always you can also click on the product name in the supplies list to place them on your order.

Our design team assignment this week was to create a card or scrapbook page using ribbon or a bow. I chose to use a technique we learned at convention to make a pleated ribbon. I also used the new My Digital Studio download from last Tuesday called Smitten Alphabet Punch. I really like the font and being able to not only size it as desired but also fill it with designer series paper if I want, makes this alphabet punch really useful. The girl in the photo is my youngest granddaughter. I knitted the scarf she is modeling. I just love the softness of this picture!

If you would like to make a similar page to feature one of your treasured photos but need some of the supplies I used, just click on the links to be taken to my online store. The beauty of digital scrapbooking is that you can purchase a download and have it on your computer and ready to use in a matter of minutes.

I have filmed a video showing how to make this pleated ribbon which I plan to share later this week. So do come back to visit again soon.

Supplies: My Digital Studio (118108)

Paper: Brocade Blue Small Polka Dot Designer Series Paper (118891)

Accessories: Oval Punch from Punch Shapes (118853)
            Square Punch from Punch Shapes
            Modern Label Punch  from Punch Shapes
            Smitten Alphabet Punch (127425)
            Antique Brads (122164)
            Very Vanilla Satin Ribbon Bow (121063)

I am sharing two 8" x 8" scrapbook pages using the new Smitten Alphabet Punch digital download for My Digital Studio that was released today. You can see the new downloads here, then go to my online store to purchase them. You will also see the new downloads featured on the right side of my store's front page.

The first scrapbook page features the designer template that comes with the alphabet. All you have to do is drop a photo into the photo box and you can be done. However, I always seem to want to change things a bit. I felt the word 'always' did not show up well when it was white so I canged the color to Melon Mambo.

This second page is my own creation. I started with a background of Island Indigo. I filled the letters with Regal Rose small dotted designer series paper. The Perfect Label punch is also filled with the Regal Rose small dotted designer series paper. Since the width of the letters is so narrow, not many dots showed up.

Now here is a tip: After you fill a punch with designer series paper, double click on the punch. In the window that comes up, there are a couple of small magnifying glasses on the left-hand side. Click on the negative one and you can shrink the scale of the designer series paper print.

I clicked the negative six times until I was satisfied with the number of dots that showed up. If you double click on the picture of the sb page, you will get the full-size picture. Then you will be able to see the dotted pattern better in the letters.

Supplies: My Digital Studio (118108)
Other: Smitten Alphabet Punch (127425)
            Perfect Label Punch (127340)
            FreeStyle Script Font size 30 ( on my computer)

Thanks for coming by to visit today. Don't forget to look up the new downloads and order them so you can begin creating with them.

Until next time….blessings,

The challenge for Utah Divas International's My Digital Studio Monday this week is to see how many layers you can use on your digital project. I count about 12 layers on this one. This card also used the weekend sketch from Stamping 411. One of the layers is a really subtle one, Vintage Overlays. I used texture 6 and stamped it in soft suede so it gave my card a rumpled and aged look. I love the new Beau Chateau designer series paper and am so happy that Stampin' Up! came out with a digital version of it. Thanks, Stampin' Up!
