Fun Digital Collage

I made this collage layout after seeing one in a magazine. There are lots of fun programs out there where you can do it in minutes. I just decided to do it myself with My Digital Studio. It took a bit of time picking all the photos from the year, but other than that, the layout was pretty simple. One thing I did was make a photo box the size I wanted for most of my pictures and then copy and pasted a number of times. I also matted them all so it sort of looked like pictures laid out on a table.

You can totally try out this fabulous program free for 30 days.  Click here to see details and try it. You can also go to MyDigitalStudio.net for LOTS of help and ideas.

Happy Stampin’!

Digital Scrapbook Layout: Toothy

Hey there!  My daugher lost her teeth last week and I decided to scrap it.  Since we have gone digital, I rarely print pictures, but my mother-in-law still wants pictures.  I do some batch printing, but this time, I'm just going to send my page to her digitally and see what she thinks.  

What do you think?

Supplies:  Cheerful Treat MDS hostess package, various punches included in the MDS basic software, Embellishments included in basic software

You can only get this fun package by being a hostess.  I have ONE date left in February and one date in March for a physical show, but I'm open all the time for catalog shows.  Contact me today to set yours up and get this great deal!

Science Fair TriFold Worries?

Scrapbooking AND rubber stamping supplies to the rescue!  

My 7th grade daughter is participating in The Classical Academy Science fair this year.  ALL 7th graders MUST participate.  They are pretty much doing high school work in seventh grade.  My husband, who is an Electrical Engineer and former winner of many science fairs, helped a ton.  

I, who have never been in a science faira, helped where I could.  However, when it came to putting the trifold together, I was ready.  Sara picked out a color combination (Pink Pirrohuette, Certain Celery and Basic Black), choose a title and used the Simple Alphabet for the Big Shot to make it.  It is going to look so GREAT!  I'll show you some pictures soon.  We're still putting it together.  She's going to do some rubber stamping with her FINGERS because her project is about fingerprinting.

Am I a feeling a little bit selfish about sharing my hoard?  Yep.  Would I do it again?  You betcha!  Sara worked hard on her project and deserves the very best.  Stampin' Up! has the highest quality scrapbooking and rubber stamping supplies.  This company stands behind its product 100%.  I know Sara will be proud of her work.  

Stay tuned tomorrow for some pictures!

Happy Stampin'!

TIPS AND TRICKS FOR THE NEW PAPER DOILY SIZZLITS DIE

FROM THE HOME OFFICE

With the Paper Doily Sizzlits Die (item 125592) you can now create the intricate designs you've grown to love with our Sizzlits Dies, in a new, larger size. Some of you have asked questions about the die and we're here to help answer those questions.

A few tips and tricks: 

• Because of variations in materials, you will most likely need to use a shim (such as piece of card stock) when you send it through the Big Shot. 
• The detailed intricacy comes with a little added work. The negative pieces will not come out automatically when you cut the die. 
  • It may take a little time to remove all the cut pieces from the die-cut paper. Remove the pieces by poking or punching them out. Carefully, push the pieces through the cut design and remove them from the back. Make sure you work from the front side of the doily (the side that was face-down when it was cut) and push the pieces through; if you try to pull them out from the front or if you push them through from the back side, the doily might tear. To make it easier, gently roll the die-cut paper to pop out some of the larger pieces.
  • Push the pieces out using the Paper-Piercing Tool or the small end of the Simply Scored Stylus. 
  • The front side will look completely cut through, however, the back side may not. This is normal with this die, and if you follow the directions of removing the small pieces you will find that the die has cut through the paper. 
• Because of the intricate design of this die, small pieces might stick in the foam on the actual die. Clear all small pieces from the die before using it again. This will ensure you get a clean cut every time. Remove the remaining pieces by using your Paper-Piercing Tool, being careful not to tear the foam on the die.

Happy Stampin'!
