Isn't this tin adorable? I decorated it up late last night and filled it with candy for my husband for Valentine's Day. Because I also gave him this Sweet Valentine card I decided to carry the design over to the tin!

Ink: Basic Black
Paper: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, First Edition designer series paper

I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day!

Stampin' Up! has compiled a great new resource - a My Digital Studio Catalogue PDF. It includes all of the MDS software artwork (contained in the original product) AND visuals of all the downloads from the October 2009 launch through January 2011. Because MDS is regularly coming out with new artwork, the catalog will be updated every month and available to you on MyDigitalStudio.net in the Resources Section.  You can use the catalog as a resource to manage the downloads you have and which ones you still want to purchase.

I whipped up this card in less than 10 minutes this morning before work. Started with a template card, change the background paper, added a strip of Soft Suede down the left side with the Early Espresso scalloped border and added in the scalloped oval punch. Voila! Note to self: I need to use My Digital Studio more often because it is quick and easy to use!

Stamps: For All You Do
Ink: Baja Breeze, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso
Paper: Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Elegant Soiree Designer Series Paper

I love my Big Shot! The only stamping on this card is the word sweet on the Riding Hood Red heart. I used the Sweet Treats stamp from Teeny Tiny Wishes - only highlighting the word sweet with my black ink pad. The big heart is from the Hearts and Bracket dies. The little hearts are the Heart to Heart punch. And of course Valentine's Day card wouldn't be complete without a diamond!

Paper: Riding Hood Red, Basic Black, First Edition Designer Series Paper
Accessories: Rhinestones, Basic Black satin ribbon, stampin' dimensionals, Heart to Heart Punch, Big Shot, sticky strip, Hearts and Brackets Bigz die, Vintage Wallpaper Impressions Folder

Can you see the shimmer on the rose? I stamped the rose in Real Red onto watercolour paper then went over the whole image with a foam brush and some Frost White Shimmer Paint. The shimmer paint picked up some of the red and coloured the rose in for me! So cool! The centre of the rose was partially coloured in with a Real Red stampin' write marker then brushed over again to let it sparkle too.

Here is a close up of the Wallpaper Impressions folder on the First Edition Designer Series Paper and the shimmer of the rose.

It's snowy outside! Wow the schools are closed and the place I work for is actually closed! I work with my family and we're never closed. But today my grandparent's thought it was too dangerous to go to work so home we all stay!

Now I have not made it to my studio yet today but I wanted to share a card I made a few weeks ago for a friend's birthday. For this card I started with a piece of Woodland Walk designer series paper and decided to go for a monochromatic look. The strip of Garden Green was first stamped with the Woodgrain background stamp, then the pine tree from Lovely As A Tree was embossed with gold.

Supplies
Stamps: Lovely As a Tree, Short and Sweet, Woodgrain background
Ink: Garden Green, Versamark
Paper: Garden Green, Wild Wasabi, Crumb Cake, Woodland Walk designer series paper
Accessories: Very Vanilla seam binding, decorative label punch, gold embossing powder, sticky strip
