During our Digital Garden class at convention, we learned how to crop out just a piece of a bow to make a pleated ribbon. I took it one step further and made this ribbon rosette.The designer series paper is First Edition. Click on the link to place your order for it.

You may ask why Tuesday is so terrific. The reason is that Stampin' Up! releases exciting new digital downloads for My Digital Studio each Tuesday and today's downloads are truly exciting. I am featuring several new downloads from the last three Tuesdays on this card. From today's download comes the Fancy Fan background stamp brush. This stamp brush is the digital version of the Fancy Fan Letterpress Plate which is a new addition in the 2011-2012 Idea Book and Catalog. I used the new Perfect Label punch which was released last week and the Ruffled Ribbon that was released July 5. I stamped the Fancy Fan in Very Vanilla but the strong color contrast with the background made the background too bold. Changing the opacity of the Very Vanilla to 50% created the effect I desired. The addition of rhinestone embellishments adds just a little bling to the card.
Here are the links to the past few new downloads in case you missed them.

The theme for this week's My Digital Studio Monday post is Punch Animals. Maybe I am being a little lazy for using an animal punch for my card but hey…we want to keep you that are new to My Digital Studio in mind and what could be easier than using an existing punch. Therefore, I focused this card on the Bitty Bat Punch. One of the wonderful things about My Digital Studio is that while the Bitty Bat punch itself is retired, elements in My Digital Studio don't retire. Another great thing about digital punches is that they can be resized however much you desire. I used the retired designer series paper Cast-a-Spell for the top 2/3rds of the card. The greeting is from All Holidays and the jack-o-lantern faces are from the stamp brush set Pumpkin Patch. I used Poppy Parade brads for the bat eyes and put Vintage Overlays over the top with an opacity of 50% to suggest spider webs.
Now is the time for you to jump into digital design! Order the full program (118108) if you are just beginning digital designing. If you already have a favorite image manipulating program that uses layers and .jpeg or .png files, you can order the My Digital Express (124483) which has less digital content. And as always, you can click on an item number to order it.
Supplies:
My Digital Studio (118108) or My Digital Studio Express (124483)
Stamp Brush Sets: Vintage Overlays Texture 6 (121061)
All Holidays (118825)
Pumpkin Patch (118122)
Paper: Basic Black digital card stock
Cast-A-Spell designer series paper Pattern 5 – digital download (118114)
Other: Bitty Bat Punch – digital download (122152)
Grosgrain ribbon – Pumpkin Pie (118851)
Decorative Punch (123951)
Poppy Parade brads (118847)
Thanks for coming by to visit today. Now that I am home from our two months in "the lower 48", I will be more faithful in sharing with you on my blogs.

Wow! With stamping cards for swapping at comvention and visiting friends on our travel to convention, I completely spaced out last Monday's post. Convention was a blast and I got so many great ideas to share with you all. We are now traveling home from convention but hopefully I will have time to post frequently.
Here is my card for this Monday. The theme is circles. I have a hard time doing circles but a doily is a circle…right? This digital download, Delicate Doilies, was the perfect solution for my card. I added some of the wonderful new In Colors, Pool Party and Island Indigo by placing small circle punches filled with color behind the doilies. The Island Indigo was too strong a color for the rest of the composition, so I reduced the opacity of the color in the punches. The addition of Island Indigo 3/8" Ruffled Ribbonadds the perfect final touch. As always, click on the item number of each element to place an order for it through my online store.
Supplies:
My Digital Studio (118108) or My Digital Studio Express (124483)
Stamp Brush Sets: Delicate Doilies (124226)
Hugs and Wishes (119095)
Other: 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon (127349)
Basic Pearls and Rhinestones (124330)
Decorative Label Punch (123951)
Circle Punch – part of Punch Shapes (118853)
Check back in the next few days for tidbits of convention.
Happy Creating,

Happy 4th of July! I hope the weather in your locale is as beautiful as it is supposed to be here. We are spending the day with our older daughter and son-in-law. My husband requested fried chicken, potato salad, and watermelon…a traditional July 4th meal from his childhood. Our SIL grew up with barbecued chicken so we are going with that along with macaroni salad, potato salad, and watermelon.
One 4th of July, we were visiting friends in Idaho and went with them to the town's fireworks display. These pictures of the fireworks were taken with my I-phone. I am really surprised how well they turned out. I used the My Digital Studio download Land of the Free Stamp Brush Set (126040). I put a square punch filled with Night of Navy behind the field of stars and stretched square punches filled with Cherry Cobbler for the red stripes. Click on the item numbers to order them and create this scrapbook page for yourself.
Supplies:
My Digital Studio (118108)
Land of the Free Stamp Brush Set (126040)
Cherry Cobbler Grosgrain Ribbon (118851) and Knot (118852)
Square Punch (118853)
Marker Felt Font size 40

Email me your phone number and address and I will give you a call to discuss with you how you can get it for FREE.

Don't these pictures just scream summer? They were actually taken a couple years ago on our Hawaiian vacation. I wish I were some of those bathing beauties on Waikiki Beach…LOL! I really enjoy creating with My Digital Studio. It has been a lifesaver for me on our 2 month trip in our 5th wheel trailer. I did bring along hand-stamping supplies but find the computer and the wealth of supplies at my fingertips with My Digital Studio so much easier to use. There is nothing to have to pull out of storage and then put back. On this scrapbook page, I needed/wanted surf boards but didn't already have some in the program. I just zipped over to the Stampin' Up! website, ordered the Summer Splash Stamp Brush Set, downloaded it and was able to play with it in a matter of minutes. It is soooooo convenient!!! If you don't have your own copy of My Digital Studio, what are you waiting for? Click here to order the full program through my online store. If you already have a photoimaging program that uses layers and supports .jpeg and .png files, you can just order the individual downloads you desire. Click here to download a catalog of all the offerings. After you look through the catalog, click here to order your choices. Downloading files is so easy and quick. This is the ultimate in instant gratification so place your order today!!!
Stamp Brush Set: Summer Splash (126039)
