Braggin' a little today with this My Digital Studio layout! This page of our youngest daughter has a different feel than my other pages in this project...(remember, I said "no rules"!)...but I wanted a bit more of an elegant theme to frame the memory of this event where my daughter was a runway model. Just a little proud! ;)

One of my stamp club members and dear friend created beautiful cards for all her sister club members and presented them at this month's club meeting. Each was unique and she selected this one for me...isn't it gorgeous?!!
Oh, the power of Heat & Stick Powder from Stampin' Up! Look how she used color on this beautiful floral stamp! With the help of a VersaMarker, she was able to "color" each section in VersaMark ink then proceed through the Heat & Stick process for each color.
Debbie, it is just absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much!

Happy Mardi Gras! I used the Stampin' Up! Designer Rosette Die in this banner that I created to display on our door at home. We attend a local parades here at the Southeast Texas Mardi Gras...a fun family event of ours for years! The elements on the banner were trinkets that I've collected through the years from my Mardi Gras stash.
With the Designer Rosette, I can say that I prefer using designer paper over card stock since it's a bit more pliable and not has heavy. The medallions (rosettes) here are made with card stock and I have some tips for cutting and assembling that I'll share in a video soon.

I realize this doesn't have a birthday sentiment on it but when I send cards to my Stampin' Up! stamp club members, I usually leave off the sentiment and write on a post it note inside. This way, it's a card and a gift!
I was in a "tag" frame of mind when I created this card using the beautiful Attic Boutique Designer paper. The idea was for a shabby chic look and this paper provided the perfect base. Stamped elements from Established Elegance(wood, clear) are perfect for this look and the lace and Antique Brad add to the feel.
What's your favorite element to use on cards?
ribbon? buttons? lace? designer paper? brads?
