Adorable Christmas Elves! {Just ME Digital Stamps}

Oh.My.Goodness.  I am SO excited.  One of my favorites, Elena Roussakis, of Just ME Prints, just opened up her etsy shop filled with a bunch of her ADORABLE hand drawn images!  Her Christmas/Winter collection consists of 8 sets of images, which you can buy individually (but I'm pretty sure you will agree that they are too cute to pass up... and you'll buy them ALL!)

Ok, so you might be asking "what are digital stamps?"  Digital stamps are image files that you purchase and then open up in a photo editing software program.  You don't need any fancy programs.  In fact, I use a free program called Pixlr.  You open up the file in the photo editing program and you can resize the image, move it around, combine it with other digital images to create scenes, etc.  SO fun!  Then you print them out, color them, and use them in your papercrafting projects!

For this card, I used the Christmas Elves digi image.  Eeeeek!  So cute I can't stand it!




For this card, I combined several images.  I used the Christmas Boy Elf, and then I added the single girl elf from the Christmas Elves file and have them sitting on the banner image from the Sweet Christmas Deer Tag file.  Once I know who this card will be sent to, I will fill in the "to" spot on the front, and add a fun message and probably a gift card inside.

I am having SO much fun playing with these adorable images.  Be sure to check out Elena's etsy shop and grab a few for yourself!

Thanks for stopping by!! :)

Sorry I was Crabby {Jane's Doodles}

Hello there!  Just popping in with a quick card!  I was perusing the Jane's Doodles store after seeing lots of cute pins on Pinterest, and saw on their blog that they were offering a free digi and sponsoring a challenge.  I think the little crab is adorable!  I paired the digi with a sentiment from Lawn Fawn's Life is Good stamp set. :)

That's it for me today... hope you're having a good one!  Thanks for stopping by! :)

Supplies:

Stamps: Jane's Doodles Digi, Lawn Fawn Life is Good

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Ranger Tumbled Glass, Vintage Photo

Other: Copic Markers, Copic Multiliner, Google Eyes, Popdots

Just ME Prints Beach Girl Digi Blog Hop!

Hi there!  I'm super excited to be participating in my good friend Elena's blog hop!  Elena has been sharing her super cute doodles on her blog for awhile now, and has decided to offer up a free digi for everyone to use!  You can find her little Beach Girl available to download from her blog.

I resized the image in photo editing software, and sized it so that it was a similar scale to Lawn Fawn's Life is Good Stamp set.  I wanted to build a little scene with the Beach Girl, and make it appear that the flag she is holding is meant to top her newly built sandcastle. :)

There are a bunch of other girls joining in on the hop too!  I can't wait to see what they have created using this adorable image!  Here is the full list:

Two Pups in the Tub {Deasy Designs}

Hi there! I have been following Deasy Designs for awhile now, and am super excited that they are taking their adorable digital stamps to the next level with their new clear stamp line. For now, the set I love most, Canine Friends, is only available in digital format. (Fingers crossed that a clear set is coming soon!) I have never really gotten into digital stamps, but I watched a few youtube videos and decided to give it a go... SO fun! :) Here is my first card using digital stamps... (Click the picture for a higher quality photo)



I added buttons for some dimension, a strip as pattern paper for flooring, and a tiny tag with some Twinery twine. It was a fun change from my normal clear stamps and ink :)

Ink: PTI Tea Dye Duo, Spring Rain
