Last Chance Lists are out!!

It is that time of year again, when we say goodbye to some of our favorite stamp sets and accessories in order to make room for all the great new additions to the next Idea Book & Catalog! Click on the links in the sidebar to see the 3 lists (stamps, accessories, and definitely deccorative) of products that are retiring.

One of my favorite Christmas sets shown here, Home for Christmas, will be going with the bunch. Also, the jumbo brads that you see used in this ornament!

This ornament is made on chipboard cut with the Scallop Square bigz clear die and the big shot. The layers were decopaged together and the accents were created by paper layering and crystal effects. The background paper and the greeting were printed on whisper white card stock with My Digital Studio!

I've been having fun with "My Digital Studio (MDS)." This ornament was created using MDS. Everything--the background paper, the stamped image, the greeting--was printed on my inkjet printer from MDS. I decoupaged the paper and greeting medallion to a painted paper mache' ornament. I printed out 3 copies of the stamped image (it can be sized to fit the ornament in MDS) and colored them using watercolor pencils and sans odor oil and a blending stump. The image is

cut out, layered and finished with Crystal Effects.

The cute little snowman ornament was created the same way!

The adorable butterfly box somewhere on this page (Sorry, I have no idea where the photos are going to land on this blog!) was created using MDS also (the butterflies are cut with my Sissix Big Shot). I printed the Designer Series paper onto our Whisper

White card stock with my inkjet printer to form the box. I think the colors came out pretty close (colors

will vary depending on your printer).

I then printed Designer Series paper onto plain copy paper to make the flower.

MDS can be used for way more than scrapbooking...and it's 50% off right now!

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
