Alexis and Bryan MDS collage page

We are down to 40 days until the wedding, so I decided to try my hand at a 12x12 collage page with My Digital Studio. I really like how this turned out.

Card from a friend

I rceieved this card in the mail from Diane Doro to let me know she was thinking of me after my fall. Get this, she herself has a broken wrist, had surgey, and is in a cast!!! Thank you Diane:)
The card uses the new Sweet Pea DSP, the Extra large 2-step bird punch, Tiny tags stamp set, and the Medium jewelry tag punch all from the Occasons Mini Catalog. How cute is that and other than the think work a quick card. Now the work is already done for you, so try this for yourself!

MDS page that I made in October

Click on photo to enlarge. This is a 12x12 page that I made in October when I first got My Digital Studio. It is of our grandson Dylan when we were at Adventureland. I am just figuring out how to save and be able to show you what I made. I love the central photo when I caught him looking through the fence at the railroad while we were waiting for the train.

I DID IT! I made my own blog header.

I have seen many people making their own blog headers with My Digital Studio and I wanted to as well, but wasn't quite sure how to do so. I need to thank Tara Kieninger and her blog http://www.firefliesandflutterbyes.com/ for the directions to make my own. This one took me about 30 min to do, so you may be seeing different ones on occasion.

Haitian Disaster Relief

On January 12, 2010 a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti, leaving in its wake devastation so overwhelming that the Haitian people and their leaders can only look for help from the outside to cope.

From now until February 28, 2010, $2 from every I {Heart} Hearts stamp set sold will be donated to the American Red Cross’ Haiti Relief and Development Fund. The Red Cross is already well-established in Haiti, and this money will be used to provide immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need.

Best excuse I could come up with for no new projects!!


I was so excited to play with my new toys on Sat and have some new projects to share, then I broke a bone in my right hand on Fri night. So I now have a splint on my right hand and a cast on my left hand-from my thumb joint replacement surgery. Alas, I can't even think about papercrafting of any sort for about 2 weeks. I need to work on the table favors for my daughter's wedding that is in 46 days. I'll be in overdrive the last 4 weeks before the wedding.
