This image & patterned papers for this card were all digital! To see a quick tutorial on how I put it together using Microsoft Word, please see my tutorial over at The Pink Elephant.
I am starting to REALLY love digital stamps/papers... especially since I can hoard them & my husband is none the wiser! (Since they don't take up any physical space!) Another reason I like digital is you never run out of the paper! I've always had a phobia about using my pretty papers, because I'm afraid I'll use it up & then need it. NOTHING beats the real thing, but doing some digital is a super handy option!
I used a digi stamp from Lori Boyd, called Maisie, for this card. The paper is from a digital kit by Connie Prince called Sunbeams and Daydreams. I used this week's sketch challenge from A Crafty Little Place.
Happy Thursday!
THUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Bet Lori loved those polka-dots! LOL! Can't wait to peek at your tutorial too. Thanks for the mention, I'm still coloring my digis but I'd love to to take that a step further and digitize my images. Really, a very wonderful card.
