Smile - it's MDS

Hello Everyone

Today I am sharing a card made with My Digital Studio, (MDS). This digital crafting program is available to download for a FREE months' trial. If you like it, it costs just £13.95 to own the full program.

I am a complete novice with this software, but I thought I would share a card I made.

It was easy to do. I like the way you can scale the elements to any size; look how I made mini versions of the Mixed Bunch stamps!

Also those pearls aren't real - they are just printed - but they really seem to pop off the page. I re-coloured them silver too!

I hope you enjoyed today's project - back soon with more.

Team Gifts - in a Muslin Bag.

Hello Everyone

I was just about to post and noticed this photo. I realised I meant to share these goodies with you when I returned from Stampin' Up! Convention in November - but somehow they got missed. So just ahead of Sale A Bration 2014 - which starts next Tuesday, I thought I would sneak them in.

These are the team gifts I made for my team who came with me to convention. We are called the Dazzling Dreamers - so everyone has to have something dazzling, and this year it was a sparkly flower pin. It went in the tissue paper and washi tape bag, which is stamped with the Lovely Romance stamp set.

I made bag tags from wood mount blocks. I had de-mounted a couple of stamp sets this year so just had enough to go around. My FIL drilled holes for the metal rings and I made name labels on MDS.

All those goodies went inside the Muslin bag which was stamped using the Travel Journal wheel and Creative elements flourish. I used Natural Trim ribbon around the bag and the label comes from Chalk Talk. The glow sticks were one of my swaps.

I hope you like them :)

Seasonal in September & My Digital Studio

Hello Everyone

This month I will be running some special classes called 'Seasonal in September'. You can see below what we will be making - some large luxury cards, a large gift box, an organiser, and a candle project. The cost of the class is £25, which includes about £15 worth of goodies. If you are in the Hampshire area, contact me if you would like to come and join us!

The class uses some of the stunning goodies from the new Autumn/Winter seasonal catalogue from Stampin' Up! 

I am sharing two boxes I decorated with the two festive DSP packs. They are called Winter Frost and Seasons of Style - so whether you like a modern or traditional Christmas look, we can make you smile! 

Today I am also sharing a project made using My Digital Studio (MDS) - the fabby digital design system just launching in the UK and Europe.

I am a novice with MDS - so be kind to me! This is an 8X8" scrapbook page I made yesterday.

Back on soon with another cute project.
