Happy New Year

Well Im back at 'work' now getting my Stampin' Up business in order for what I hope to be a fantastic year.

Do you like the card above??

I created it on My Digital Studio which i intend on using alot more this year - Its one of my Stampin' up New Years Resolutions :)

I am also giving you all a sneak peak as I have used some gorgeous Designer Series Papers from Sale-A-Bration
which is the start of some fantastic promotions running this year :)
I will give you more information on Sale-A-Bration closer to the start date however in the mean time keep your eyes peeled for more sneak peaks :)

A quick reminder that the current Seasonal Catalogue (the smaller one) closes its pages for good at the end of January so if you still haven't ordered everything you 'need' then contact me to place your order soon as I cannot guarantee that the products will reappear in future catalogues :(

I cant wait to see what the new year brings Stampin' Up and cant wait to share it with you all

I want to thank you all for your custom and support over the last 2 years I wouldn't be where I am today without you so

(another sneak peak from one of the FREE digital downloads available on MDS during SAB)

MDS Monday

Good morning and welcome to another week

What are we all up to this Bank Holiday??

i would like to appoligise for the missing MDS Monday from last week I was so busy preparing for the workshop I did on tuesday before I knew it, it was wednesday and i'd lost a whole day :)

I have been playing with MDS again and this week I made a Tri-fold card

I don't have anyone to send the card to I just decided a little boys card would be nice.

For this card I used

DSP: On the go-2

STAMP SET: On the go-car 

SENTIMENT: Bring on the cake

MDS has some gorgeous products that aren't available in the catalogues and its great to be able to play around with something new.

We are still waiting for a release date for this wonderful product but I know when you get your hands on it you are just going to LOVE it

outside it cant decide if it wants to rain or be sunny and the wind is quite strong for this time of year :(

What better excuse then but to share some more MDS magic with you all

I am really enjoying the easiness of MDS I thought I may struggle with the technical side of MDS however it is quite the opposite.

I am loving the amount of products that are there for you to choose from and the easiness of adapting it to suit your needs exactly

For this card I used:

First Edition DSP

Meant to Be Stamp Set

Autumn Elements - Flourish 1 Stamp Set

Antique Brads - Brad 2

Ok so now I hear you saying you want to play to and dont want to wait for the release date

MDS Monday

Happy monday everyone

I hope you had a productive week and a restful weekend.

I have had a husbandless weekend as he has been away since friday on a Stag Weekend 

so it gave me 2 nights of uninterrupted crafting (once the kids were in bed)

I decided to make a card using MDS this week

I created this card from scratch and it was really simple and easy to do

(I must be getting the hang of this digital crafting now)

I used the following MDS Products:

Crumb Cake Cardstock

Chocolate chip Cardstock

Downtown Grunge Patterned Paper

Bring On the Cake Sentiment Stamp

Adventure Awaits Stamp

The card size is 5x7

Now all I need is to invest in a decent printer so I can Print off and use my creations :)

Don't forget to pop back next monday to see another creation from

My Digital Studio

MDS Monday

OK

so its monday again (a little late on monday but its still monday)

My days are a little turned around this week as Im not at work so I will get some much needed craft time hence me posting later

So its time for some MDS Magic

Once you have purchased this magnificent tool you will notice that not only can you create your own projects from scratch but for novices like me they give you some pre designed projects that you can add to

I have taken one of these pre designed templates today and simply added a photo

(thats how easy it can be)

This is the first time I've been able to scrap this picture of me and my brother who very suddenly and sadly was taken from us late last year so its still very raw and emotional to look at pictures of him.  This is one of the only 'adult' pictures of us together so it means so much to me

I haven't added anything to the template apart from the photo

so you can see how gorgeous your projects can be without much work

We are still waiting for a release date on MDS so I will keep teasing you with MDS Mondays as it will help me develop from a novice to an amateur (fingers crossed)

Pop back next week for some more MDS samples
