September 21 - My Digital Studio

It is completely embarrassing how long it has been since I've posted on the blog and I feel so badly about that! Since my last post kids have started school, I got a new job as the librarian/art teacher there among many other crazy things going on here!

However...today I came home to a UPS package with my new copy of Stampin' Up!'s new "My Digital Studio" and I installed it faster than you could say Digital Scrapbooking. I played around for a little bit with it and was surprised at how easy it was to use. Not to mention all of the fun elements, paper, stamps and everything else that it is.

Now I love digital scrapbooking, I just don't do it very often because I really love physically working with paper, ink. stamps, etc. But this was SO fun and I am glad I have a few different ways to scrapbook/make cards now (yes, it has cards you can make too!)

Well, here is my first attempt at using My Digital Studio and I am now in love. :) This page took me about 15-20 minutes to make. The program comes with a ton of stuff to use with it and I think it is a fantastic deal for the $79 price. I will be having a class/overview of the program in October and will post the date and details as soon as I have them worked out, or if you just can't wait let me know and I can give you a personal lesson. I will also be offering digital workshops as well so if that is something you think you'd be interested in trying just let me know and I'll get you on the schedule. The program is available for purchase October 1st, if you'd like to be one of the first to get it be sure to place your order with me before that date so I can get it entered first thing October 1st.

I have also added many new card images to my new Stampin' Up! project gallery on my personal website here: http://www.hollystamps.com/ - just click on Gallery. I'm going to try to add more cards soon as soon as I can get them scanned and I plan to try and post some hybrid projects using this program and some real products combined soon. Hope you have a FANTASTIC week! :)
