May Stamp Camp- Lattice Bigz Die

I have seen many cards online using the lattice Bigz Die and the Window Frames Collection so I had to make my own.  Not only is the Lattice Bigz Die retiring but also the stamp sets used here called Creative Elements and the much used Hostess set called Simply Sketched.

May Stamp Camp- Paper Pumpkin

This card will be using one of the Paper Pumpkin cards I received.  Some will be making a congrats card and some a thank you card.  This has been my favorite Paper Pumpkin kit so far.  I was able to order refills and I am sharing with you so you can try it also to see how easy, quick and nice they really are.

I showed you recently both my card & scrapbook layout.  Well, my scrapbook layout won this prestigious award from Cindy Schuster a fellow Stampin Up demonstrator & friend.

My Digital Studio Challenge #2

 

Yesterday I showed you a card I made for a Challenge put on by 2 of my fellow demonstrator friends from Georgia.  Today I am showing you the 2 page scrapbook layout I made. 

This Challenge had to use a Circle, some Squares, ribbons which I used just part of one & recolored them.  You were to add a quote using several different fonts.  I love the effect I got using the Watercolor Wonder DSP in the Circle punch.

My Digital Studio Challenge #1

Today 2 of my fellow demonstrator friends from Georgia lead 2 Challenges.  I did both Challenges but will only share the 1st with you here.

This was a card I created on My Digital Studion using the Align Feature which perfectly aligned the 4 Thank You stamps in a row down the side of the paper. 

Thought I would share for all my birthday wishes I received yesterday.
