I love love love the My Digi Studio.. my good friend asked me to help her with some shower favors for her daughter in laws baby shower and I came up with this... I wanted to send her the grouping of pics and then a lightbulb went off!!! Aha!!! MDS... Whoa!! I made this layout and added the paper behind the photos and watermark!!! Love love love how easy it is to use... I'm a total novice to Digital any craft... I am sooo pleased that I will be showing this at my open house in a couple of weeks... Yippeeeeee!!!
Thanks for looking!!

Halloween Lanterns

Need a light? Well... I got this idea in my head to make some lanterns when by accident I cut out some Top Note dies from a folded piece of cardstock... well, this isn't the only idea I had ... wait til you see the cards!!! Pretty cool stuff... the other three sides are decorated with Stamped images as well as dies... this was a lot of fun. Thanks for looking...

Oh, and by the way... I LOVE MY DIGI STUDIO!!!! Look what I did to my jpeg file!!!! Yay!! Ask me how>>>

Halloween LOL swaps are here!!!

For your viewing pleasure... be sure to give credit if you are copying the cards...

This wonderful sampler is from Joszette....



Here is a closeup of the technique she used on her card... the circle in the middle has an x cut out in the middle and each point is turned out to reveal the back paper design... coupled with the photo corners in two colors... very clever indeed.



This Elegant spooky spider on it's web is by Bekka... lovely indeed, yet spooky!!! Love all the layers of punches ..



These two were made by Bonnie... I'm glad you used the Haunted house... how soon we forget when we're focused on the new and how well is goes with the DSP!!! To the left the Sweet Centers stamp set that you can use to send a card with candy...


These classy cards are by Debbie ... I love your layers Debbie and the Card on the right... WOWzer's!!! Love the spookiness...

Closeup... you would think she stamped the wording, but in fact it is one of the designer papers from the Night & Day packet!!! Love it.




These cuties are by Jamie and I love the creative punch work!!! Great job Jamie.. very clever!!!


These two are mine...


These two are by Susan.. Love the Haunting hill wheel on the Orange and the creative use of the oval windows for both cards... nice design.


This fun fella is by Yvette... love your layers Yvette.. and the use of the black with the Green DSP... great job.


Last, but not least is Shelleys cards... I love love love the skeleton dancing among the tombstones Shelley!!! Hello???? Great job.. it took me a minute to really look at it and it hit me... great job!!!


See what I mean??? Nice!! I'm gonna case this a bit Shelley..
Thank you ladies for joining my swap!!!

Pumpkin Pickin

I had this idea with the swirls big shot negatives... hope you like it... and I mean the swirls on the bottom... the background cardstock is textured, but you can't see it... it's much richer in person. I had fun making this.
