Easter Blessings

March 31, 2013

line

I made this card for my oldest niece Bailey for her teacher,

this year she started at a new school that has a strong focus on faith

 her teacher has just been so wonderful with helping Bailey adjust

to a new school with much different rules and culture to her past school.

…………….

…………….

In my last post I advised on how in Australia we now offer My Digital Studio {MDS}

I have been using the My Digital Studio for a few months now

and

heart

Yes… it’s LOVE

………………

I see a whole different range of uses creating hybird cards,

off the page item, home decor and even start scrapbooking again

……………

As you know I am a layers kind of girl,

when others heard that I was so crazy in love with MDS

they were surprised that I felt that way.

…….

I always think I have a different way of looking at things…

Creative or even innovative you may say!

………………….

…………………

I will not be changing my lots of layers style at all.

I hope I can inspire you

to join me for this new creative journey.

……………

Stampin’ Up! Being the fabulous people that they are

have a 30 day trail to let you play and get a feel

before buying the package.

……………..

Free Trial

If you click on the box above it will take you to more information

and the download of My Digital Studio {MDS}

I started off with the trial as I was not sure if it was for me!

However I was SOLD straight away

I have used Photoshop and Illustrator for over 13 years for professional design work

I was taken with the fuction yet ease of use the My Digital Studios offered

I was hooked…

……………

…………….

…………..

Heather Summers my SWEET Canadian friend is a MDS Master,

she played a big part to inspiring me to even touch the software.

If you have been living under a rock and not been to her blog

Then pop over to Heather’s blog and see what she can do with MDS

……………

……………….

………

Side note:

If you go to Google Heather Summers

you will find that you should do

“Heather Summers Stampin’ Up!”

Because

There is a Heather Summers of the “Adult entertainment kind”

and

I clicked on that other Heather Summers by mistake once

and boy oh boy did I blush!!!

…………………

……………….

Teneale

…………………….

You can see I have printed the flowers and the background papers,

using my home printer.

…………..

I have used on Very Vanilla Cardstock, Crumb Cake Ink for sponging

and I stamped the ink splodge for “French Foliage” real stamps

over my printing in Crumb Cake Classic Ink.

………..

…………

You can see below, I have taken a few screen shots

Providing a visual aid

This is the front of the card

……………

MDS Screen front

…….

……..

Well I do love my layers, so  I started by opening

“Bunch Of Background Stamp Brush Set – Digital Download”   $6.50

Backgrounds MDS image from shop

I have added “Well Worn Words” from the above background bundle

the changed the colour to Crumb Cake

MDS Screen layers

……………………….

…………………………………………………………………………………………

The next screen shot shows

I have added reduced the opacity to 25%

on the Crumb Cake layer from above

Arrow on the right shows the opacity section

…………………

My Project 6_2-001

Please note: on the above screen shot I have not coloured

the images yet, once I did they would have been to

hard to see on the screen.

………………………

Over the top of the 25% Crumb Cake Layer

I have placed Sanded,

which I will change to Whisper White at 45% opacity

……….

Then Wonderly Worn Whisper White to 45% opacity

…

All the backgrounds I have used at in the one bundle

I have placed a cross next to the used backgrounds.

…………….

….

WHY add the layers, you may be thinking?

I wanted a softer background  and to add greater distressing

………..

.

So at this point

I hope you are not feeling like this…

that 70's show shake my head

………

…………

Moving on….

…………

I could not decide the colour I wanted to use

I have found that my home printed is a little

lighter then what the SU! Colours really are,

so I printed Bashful Blue, Old Olive and Island Indigo strips

 of the Well Worn Words background.

……….

MDS Screen strip

…………

………..

Once I printed and cut the layers down I sponged with Crumb Cake ink

add 5/8 INCH CROCHET TRIM VICTORIA across the front.

…………….

……….

…………….

Inside the card was pretty simple,

I have left room for my sister to write a message to the teacher

at the bottom I placed an Easter verse

I found via Google {no it is not a digital stamp}

………………..

Two thumbs up!

Noooo…… Stop it!

    Wow Teneale – this is an amazing use of MDS on a hybrid card. I think I will have to take the plunge and download MDS. What printer do you use?

  7. Lynn Powell says: April 1, 2013 at 12:21 am

    Teneale this is absolutely awesome! I have downloaded MDS but haven’t had a chance to play as yet. You have totally inspired me!! Wish I didn’t have to go to work! **sigh**

  8. Nikki Spencer says: April 1, 2013 at 1:20 am
