My Digital Studio sample 1


Remember I said I was going to be posting samples made with my digital studio all week. Well today is a card I made while planning for my Christmas Card stamp-a-stack (which is Monday the 16th at 6:30 there's still room if you want to come just let me know). This is the layout and paper of a card that we will be making however at the stamp a stack we are using the Dasher stamp because I don't have the Winter post stamp set. I wanted to see what this card would look like with a different stamp set so I started playing in My Digital Studio. How awesome is this that I can play with stamps I don't own because they are in My Digital Studio!!
The software comes loaded with stamp sets, punches, designer series paper, ribbon, brads and many more. You will also be able to add to this great selection with optional downloads of new stamp sets and accessories.
I will be having a My Digital Studio workshop at my house on Wednesday November 18th at 6:30. There is no charge and you'll get to see how easy this software is.
Let me know if you have any questions about the My Digital Software this week and I'll try to get them answered during my ALL Digital week!

Super Simple Christmas Card


Who says you can't make your own Christmas cards? On this card I let the beautiful paper be the focal point. There's no additional ribbon or brads, simply beautiful. You could easily make these while watching some of your favorite Christmas movies!

Halloween Weekend









We had a fun filled Halloween weekend at my house. If you live on the eastside of Indianapolis and have never been to the Irvington Halloween Festival you are missing a lot of fun. This has been a tradition in my family for many many years. The Festival was Saturday but there are activities going on all week. The kid's favorite is of course the costume contest, and then walking in parade. This year Caleb and Emma went has Herbie, the Love Bug. I'm very happy that they think outside the box for their Halloween costumes. Well I guess this year they thought inside the box (ha ha!). The best part was that they could split in half and walk around someone the way Herbie does in the movie!




We had over 100 trick-or-treaters in our neighborhood, we ended up taking candy the Caleb and Emma had collected and giving some of it away when we ran out of candy. I think our big pumpkin drew a few extra kids.




On Sunday we had a surprise birthday party for my Mom and to our surprise, she was really surprised. I figured she knew and was just playing along but we did surprise her. It was a great but busy weekend!

November Already!


Wow I can't believe it's November already. (We had a fun filled Halloween weekend, I'll show you pictures tomorrow). Now, it's time to start planning for Christmas. I'm not someone who skips Thanksgiving, but if I wait until after Thanksgiving to make plans then I don't enjoy the Christmas season because I'm too busy. I encourage you to start making a list of gifts you are going to make and buy. To help with that Stampin' Up! has come out with a gift giving guide. This guide gives ideas for kids, teens, neighbors and friends. And the best part is that if you spend $50 on products in the guide then you can pick a $16.95 Decor Element for FREE. You can keep it or give that has a gift as well.
