My Digital Garden ...

A huge thank you to my awesome crew today for taking a nice long nap which allowed me a little bit of time to get scrapping my garden photos from this summer!

I am loving learning more and more about what the My Digital Studio can do - and was excited to download some new stamps and ribbon accents this past weekend - happy birthday to me!

I created all the flower embellishments in the layouts using DIGITAL PUNCHES and layering them up .... was even able to recreate a digital version of the 'butterfly pansies' using the butterfly punch template ... I was pretty proud of that one!

One of a Kind

I have been playing with the MDS again - love how you can plan the layout of a card and then either save for later or use for creating a hybrid card or just use as is for an e-card.

Front of card ... stamped with One of a Kind stamp set and than the Garden Whimsy stamp sets' butterfly layered to help it seem to be lifting off the page. I love how stamping on the page with the same colour as the background, so for this card Tempting Turquoise and Melon Mambo and adding a digital drop shadow seems to give the impression of 'faux embossing' ... too cool!

Inside of card ... hopefully it shows up in the photo but I 'faux embossed' the inside of the card as well by choosing Whisper White from the palette and than giving it a drop shadow which makes the image appear to pop out of the page!Happy stamping and stay cool - it is another scorcher starting out there!
