Can you guess what’s staying and what it going?

This is a card made by a friend of mine at a recent Stampin’ Up! event that I went to.  I just love it.  The products she used are in the current spring catalog.  Can you guess which ones will be going into the new catalog.  Leave your guess in the comments section and I will pick one random winner and send them a gift.  Guesses must be made by May 30th.

Reverse Masking Technique

Masked Butterfly Card

I found this awesome technique on YouTube.  Of course it caught my eye since it was my up-line doing the demonstration, but I absolutely loved the technique.  It’s really pretty easy to do.  I created a bunch of these to send out.  Maybe you’ll be one of the lucky ones to get one.

Hybrid MDS Project

I’ve enjoyed sharing MDS with so many of you during my free classes.  While I was talking to them about this wonderful program I mentioned how easy it to create Hybrid projects.  A Hybrid Project is where part of your project is created Digitaly and the other is created traditionally.  I was telling them about one of the projects the I created last year for the Stampin’ Up! Artisan design contest.  This was one of my favorite projects.  It’s a 12 x 12 scrapbook page.  One of the pictures that I used was the Birth announcement that I created in “My Digital Studio.”  I just printed it out larger to put it on the page.

Love Page

 

I love all the detail I was able to add to the page and how the MDS is the only color that I added to the page.  It’s hard to tell in the picture, but the whole thing sparkles and shimmers.  It’s was actually created as more of a show piece then one that would go in a scrapbook since it has so many layers.  I just re-created it (finally) so that I could hang it up in my daughters room that we just finished painting.  I put it in one of those 12 x 12 frames and it looks so cute.  Just so you know a few of the items are retired now as it was created last year.

MDS is such a great tool you can use to enhance your traditional scrapbook as well as creating all Digital projects.  I hope that you will join me from one of my future classes.  You can down-load the free MDS trial from my website or better yet just buy the program for the new low cost of just $19.95.

If you have any questions let me know.
