GUEST DESIGNER POST - DIGISTAMP BOUTIQUE

Hi Everyone

Happy Thursday!

Time once more for me to post to the Digistamp Boutique Blog .. .. gosh these weeks are flying by.

This week I chose to work with a digi image set called A4 - Simply Moving Home.  The download consists of three A4 sheets of images.  Some with sentiments and some without.

Here is my creation:




This used:

Image and Sentiment:  DigiStamp Boutique "A4 - Simply Moving Home"
Backing Papers:  Docrafts Forever Friends "Kraft Notes"
Memory Box Die Set:  Marshmallow Clouds
ProMarkers
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Glamour Dust
Ribbon and Charm from my crafty stash box

You can simply cut the images straight from the A4 sheets but instead of doing that I did a bit of cropping and enlarging.

To begin with I worked with the sheet with no sentiments, copied the images to a blank sheet in "Word" and cropped them to just leave the house image I wanted to work with.  I then re-sized the cropped image and printed it.  I did the same with the car image and the sentiment I wanted to use and then enjoyed having a little colouring session.   

The car image was added using dimension pads to raise it up and give a 3D look .. .. but I was secretly wishing I had one of those springy backed things to make the car wobble when it was touched.  But there was no point in me searching my little craft pod to try and find one because I know I have never owned one LOL!!

So that is me for another week.

Don't forget to enter Sally-Ann's free clear stamp giveaway on Facebook.  You can find all the details here.

Enjoy your day.  I am pleased to report we haven't seen much of the snow they were threatening us with .. .. let's hope it stays that way.

  3. A super new home card - had to smile at your comment about searching for items in your craft pod. I often don't bother searching for things I KNOW I have because they never seem to come to light when I search but then maybe that's saying too much about my tidiness (or lack of).

  11. Truly a great card and image used Jules, well done!
    BTW not sure you know.... your link to digi set doesn’t open in a new window but takes me away from your blog. Not know what I mean?
    See here... https://calligraphycards-shazinoz.blogspot.com.au/2016/03/woyww-open-link-in-new-window-on.html
    you’re probably aware of it, already... but I’ve noticed lately that blogger reverted to default which is without that wee box to open in new window checked.
    Very annoying of blogger ... hugs Shaz.x
