I’ve been sort of shadowing the Etsy Inspired Challenge blog for a while and finally found the time to participate – at last! I think it’s so neat to take a look at an Etsy shop and sort of transform the inspiration into a card…very cool. This week we looked at the Indigotwin shop and I [...]
When I saw the latest Clean & Simple sketch, I had to participate and try it out. I’m really trying to learn how to create really clean layouts, but that still look full and interesting. Here’s the card I came up with… I had just got my doily lace stamp by Hero Arts, so used [...]
Here’s my lovely circle cut-out card, where I put in my peacock digital stamp image. It came out so nicely colored in Copics and I just loved it with this cardstock color and ribbon. I put in white faux stitching with a gel pen, totally influenced by Kristina Werner. I had a bit of trouble [...]
I recently went on a bit of a coloring rampage…so had lots of material for creating cards. Here’s a simple, but cute thank you card I created with my handdrawn balloon girl that you can download for free. I colored her with my Copics and added rubons of faux stitching to complete this card…really simple! [...]

I was just listening to the latest Paperclipping Digi Show podcast and loving the new collection by Vinnie Pearce, The Apple of My Eye. I checked out the collection in the shop, then the inspiration page with layouts displayed, not to mention videos on how the album was made…wow!!! Sorry, but I have to gush. [...]
It seems that every time I design something, I learn something new. There never seems to be enough tips, tricks and shortcuts you can learn in programs like Photoshop and Illustrator. As I go deeper into the adventure of being a digital scrapbooking designer, I figure that perhaps I should also start from the basics. [...]
Hi folks! So I’m continuing to add more handdrawn digital stamp designs to my digistamp store – have you seen all the girls from a previous post? Although I’m not a big fan of scanning and cleaning designs, I’m certainly in more control when sketching and drawing by hand, than with using the Wacom tablet [...]
I’ve been trying to simplify these days and decided to create a simple and clean handmade card. I used my Cute Lady digital stamp image, colored with Copics and tried to not add much else. Sometimes it’s actually difficult to not throw everything on a card…practice…practice… Related Posts:Cardmakers! CDAC Progressive Freebie ChallengeNational Handwriting DayBeautiful Cardmaking [...]
Continuing with my hybrid card design adventures, today I designed a “thinking of you” classic styled card. It’s super fun to create designs, but I realized how difficult it is sometimes to cut out the shapes…I’m not a very good cutter myself. Now that I finally got a Big Shot, I think I will try [...]
