Christmas card

I am so loving My Digital Studio!
I whipped this card up in about 2 minutes! I started with a designer template card, and changed it up a bit! I added and removed a few things to my taste. My favorite thing to do is change the opacity of the colors. I love how it looks!

What do you think???

My first real Hybrid project!

I started off with this 8 x 8 scrap book page made on My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up! I used the designer pre-made page from the Rock-a-bye boy kit. I removed the bow that was on the page. I then printed it at home. That took a little bit of trial and error. You need to adjust the print settings. Make sure you put it on custom and move the borders so it will print the true size ( unless you want it to print smaller). Of course if you send it to the printing service through Stampin' Up! it will print true to size! Also I found that the color was more true ( with my printer any way, Stampin' Up! only guaranties true color on your projects when you use their printing services) when I printed on semi glossy photo paper. It looked pretty good on Whisper white, but I preferred the look on the photo paper.

After I printed the page I trimmed it. Then I layered it onto a piece of Chocolate chip cs ( 8 1/2 x 8 1/2) then I tied a piece of Choc. Chip ribbon around the page right on top of the printed piece of ribbon! I then layered again onto a piece of textured Very vanilla 12 x 12 cs.

I really love how this turned out! The whole process (even the printing errors) only took me 15 minutes! That's from start to finish! When was the last time you made a page that fast?

Please tell me what you think about this layout!

MDS cards

I have been busy all day playing with My Digital Studio from Stampin' up! Boy you are going to love this thing!! I made another album, and I just whipped up this card! The first photo is the card printed and then I added the REAL Old Olive grosgrain ribbon.

This next picture is the card in MDS, not printed with the "fake" ribbon.

I have been wanting to make this simple card sense I received my copy of MDS, but have been way to busy... and what do you know it only took me a few minutes to make! I could have had this done days ago! OH well...

So here are a few tips for you for printing your card at home, now mind you this is the first one I printed.

1. make sure you have your card stock of choice in the printer
2. select print
3. select advanced
4. select custom layout
5. move your margins to arrange the card in the preview window to how you want it to print
6. select Okay

You know can cut your card stock in half! add any additional embellishments to your card and you are done!!

If you are in Florence, Oregon on the 26th of Sept, please stop by between 1-5 pm for more great tips!

happy stamping,

Jennifer Jones
