Check out my Baby Quilt

I just had to share.  I made this cute quilt for my friend that’s having a baby (I’m going to have  hard time giving it away though.)  I made it with our scallop square die cut for the big shot.  It was so easy I couldn’t believe it.  This is coming from someone who hadn’t sewn in 14 years and I often claimed that I couldn’t sew a straight line if my life depended on it.  I’m amazed at how easy it was and how much I love it now because of a little bit of instruction.

Remember if you want to learn more you can come to my Open House on Saturday from 10:00 – 2:00.  You can find more details in an early post or give me a call.  Please feel free to bring a friend.

Check out my Rag Bag

I talked a little bit about using the Big Shot for quilting and sewing when I got back from Leadership in January, however since I’m not that great at sewing I haven’t been able to peruse it much further.  In April I was able to attend a meeting held by my up-line Amy Johnson and was finally able to learn how to make one of these awesome Rag Bags.  Can I just say it was way easier that I thought it was going to be.

So here’s me sewing my bag.  It was so easy to cut out.  I just cut the fabric in strips and then I was able to cut out 8 scallop squares at once.  I loved it.  We also made this awesome flower to go on the back.  I was surprised at how easy it was and that I was able to do it thanks to the help of my awesome Stampin’ friends.

Then here’s the finished project.  It’s awesome because you can make the bag any size that you want.  You can totally customize it for your needs.

They have also been making quilts, hair bows, clothing and more.  You really need to check out all the things you can do with our fabulous Big Shot.

So now I’m excited to share this with you.  I’m going to be having a

My Digital Studio Software Update

February 25, 2010We have released an update to your My Digital Studio software; this update is version 1.0.2. If you have already updated to version 1.0.1, you will be informed of the new update the next time you launch your My Digital Studio software, or you can choose to Check for Updates under the Help menu to search for the 1.0.2 update.

However, if you have not yet updated to version 1.0.1 (announced December 3) then you should update to that version (follow the instructions here), after which your software will prompt you to restart. After restarting you can download the latest version (1.0.2) by choosing Check for Updates under the Help menu, as mentioned above. You must shut down your My Digital Studio software between downloading versions 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 and again after downloading version 1.0.2. Restarting the program enables the software to complete the update and allows for it to run as it should.

The version 1.0.2 update provides the addition of a Calendar Guide option under the View/Guides menu to show the bleed area for calendar creation. The bleed area shows the portion of the page that may be cut off or trimmed when your project is printed. The calendar guides show 1/2″ on the top and bottom of the page and 1/4″ on each side, no matter the calendar size or orientation.

The calendar bleed area will turn on by default when you open/use a calendar within My Digital Studio. You can also turn on your calendar guides by selecting Calendar Bleed Area under the View/Guides menu.

On the 10th day of Christmas . . .

 

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a more Hybrid Cards from “My Digital Studio.”

So I still just love this product.  Here’s some fun easy Hybrid Cards that I made.  First I designed what I wanted on MDS then I printed it and added it to my project.

This is one of my favorites.  I love this quick and easy tag I made.  We even did this one as a make and take.  The “Don’t Open until Dec. 25 is from MDS then I punched it out.  The tag is one of the tags from the two tags die for the Big Shot.

.

.

This fun card also used the Big Shot.  I just layered 1″ squares on a white piece of cardstock.  Then I ran it through the Big Shot and cut it with the Top Note Die.  The “Merry and Bright was done with MDS then punched with the 1 3/4” circle punch.

.

.

I really like this card.  The base of the card is Embossed using the Big Shot.  Then I stamped the cute snowman from the Hostess set in the Holiday Min.  The Ornament was created on MDS and then punched out with the ornament punch.

.

.

.

Here’s another quick and easy card.  It’s a fun 3 x 3 card once again embossed with the Big Shot.  The ornament on the front was created in MDS then punched out.  We also put a white paper inside to make it easy to write on and stamped a cute little tree on it.  So easy and simple.

Remember if you order MDS before December 26th you can get it for $15.00 off.  So if Santa didn’t get it for you treat yourself and get it from me.

To order call me at 435-245-5321 (Home) or 435-232-2655 (Cell & Messages.)  E-mail me at andersoncandice@hotmail.com.  Order on-line at www.candiceanderson.stampinup.net. Click on the shop now in the upper right hand corner.
