My Digital Studio and Digital Downloads

I have been having such a blast working with My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up!  While I do not prefer to generate my entire project digitally, I use the digital images and sentiments available through the program to augment my already expansive stamp and paper inventory. 

There are advantages and disadvantages to using digital images but they are nice to have when I need and easy to store.  One of the advantag is that you can resize the image to suit your project.  You can't do that with a stamp.  Within the program you can change the color of the images to match your Stampin Up card stock and paper and print out the elements to use on your cards such as I did here on this cupcake card. 

The cup cake was generated within the program and printed out. I then trimmed and used it like it was any other stamped image by layering it with card stock and an embossed background, and adding embellishments

You can order the My Digital Studio software from Stampin' Up which comes with many stamp sets, background papers, and embellishments to start with.  Then when you are ready, you can purchase other downloads separately to add to your digital collection. 

And I'll share a secret with you, you can also purchase the individual downloadble sets/papers, etc separately and use them in your own desk top publishing or similar program that you already have.  So if you are an experienced with creating with digital images already, you will enjoy purchasing the very affordable digital downloads from Stampin' Up.  If you have any questions about the My Digital Studio and/or digital downloads don't hesitate to contact me.

Wow, you'd never know it was a print out Cindy! Did you print onto card stock? What a great idea. :)
