I'm not sure if you know this about me…but, I LOVE DIGITAL PAPERCRAFTING!!!! I really do!!! When Stampin' Up! came out with the My Digital Studio program…it was the answer to my dreams!!!

I started out as a scrapbooker 10 yrs ago after my first child was born and managed quite well to "keep up". After my second child was born…I found it a much bigger challenge to keep up and after my 3rd child, I pretty much gave up. Terrible, isn't it?! I just found that I ran out of time. Are you with me?!

I still really love the "traditional scrapbooking" and many of my customers create such beautiful pages and would never convert to Digital…but, I'm a changed woman!

I love the ease and simplicity that MY DIGITAL STUDIO gives me. I can create pages in minutes and I love the way they look. I've also been able to use my program for so much more: digital files for my blog, postcard print-outs, wedding invitations, calendars, journals, baby announcements, and printable hard cover scrapbooks! You'd be amazed out how easy it is to use!

So, because of NATIONAL SCRAPBOOKING MONTH and our great sale on Digital products…I thought I'd focus this month on some of the projects I've made with MY DIGITAL STUDIO!

Today, I thought I'd share with you a cute "Swatch Book" I'm working on that features my daughter's 4th Birthday. Hailey actually helped me pick which paper to use and which embellishments. We are having fun creating this together!

Rivet Swatchbook

5-1/2" x 3-1/4" (Landscape) $15.95 — 26/26 —

A plastic cover is included on the front and back of your swatchbook with a rivet located 3/8” from the upper left-hand corner. Create 26 My Digital Studio project pages for a total of 13 printed double-sided pages.

Don't forget that some of our PRINTABLE PRODUCTS are on sale this month. Check out the flyer!

An update and my next CARD CLASS!

Posted on April 28, 2011 by Josee

Hi there,

It seems like forever since I've blogged…I guess that's because it really has been forever. I used to be so good at being consistent, but, lately have such a hard time staying on top of it.

I just can't believe that May is nearly here. The weather is finally starting to cooperate and the kids are playing outside and I've actually seen some of my neighbours on the street again. I really love the sunshine and the warmth! For Spring Break, we went away to Grand Forks and Fargo which is about 3-4 hours away from where I live.

We had a really nice time…we stayed 2 nights at the Canad Inns in Grand Forks and my kids loved the Indoor Water Park.

I got to do some serious shopping at Target and at Gordmann's (my favourite new store). It's actually probably a good thing that the stores are 3+ hrs away or I'd be in real trouble. After 2 days we drove to Fargo and stayed at a couple of different hotels. We played at the pool, had some great food and shopped again! Gotta love it! 🙂

Just as we were getting ready to come home, my husband ended up slipping on some ice and falling side-way's onto a curb. He ended up twisting his ankle and breaking 2 ribs. Poor guy had to endure the ride back to Canada so we could get him to a hospital. I can't believe on how little they can do for ribs. Here's some pills….and you're on your way! It took him a good week before he could get in and out of bed by himself…crazy stuff! Thankfully, he can move around again but he's still really sore when he moves certain ways.

The nicer weather is really energizing me and I"m excited to have my next CARD CLASS. It's going to be on Friday May 13th at 7pm. You can REGISTER HERE.

Here's a sneak peek of 2 of the card we'll be making:

Hope you'll join me! REGISTER HERE!
