MDS Monday

Over at Utah Divas, we've started a new Monday Challenge!!!  It's creating projects with My Digital Studio (MDS).  MDS is much more than a card or scrapbooking software and we are going to show you different projects that can be done using this software.  First up are Valentine Cards!  Here's mine for the week and you can see the rest of them over at the UDI Blog.  Our fearless leader for these challenges is Brandy Cox.  Thanks Brandy for heading this up!  Here's my card!!!!

Have a great week, I'll see you again on Friday!

Saturday Sketch Challenge 2/12

We have finally thawed out here in Fort Worth!  I'm so glad!    This week's sketch has endless possibilities and I can't wait to see what the rest of the team has done!!!!  You can see the sketch and links to all of the Design Team here or you can just follow the link at the bottom of this post to "skip" to the next designer.


Here's my card!  I learned the technique with the "bow tie" ribbon from the amazing Rebecca Feeken.  Everyone has asked how to tie this bow so here's a link to her YouTube Video demonstrating it.  As a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, I can't post links to people's blogs who demonstrate competing product but since this video just uses generic ribbon, I think I'm okay.

Supplies:

Stamps:  Tiny Tags
Ink:  Blushing Bride
Cardstock:  Blushing Bride, Designer Series Paper Pack - In Color (Hostess), Whisper White
Accessories:  Jewelry Tag punch, Old Olive 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon, Victoria 5/8" Crochet Trim, Bitty Buttons, Rhinestones

Now on to Tammy's Blog to see what she's created for us this weekend.  Have a great one!
