Posted on March 8th, 2010, 7 responses.

mds-project-boxes-all

Today’s lesson is how to create these gorgeous boxes using the new Mini Project box downloads from Stampin Up. You don’t even need the My Digital Studio program to make these stinkin’ cool boxes, just the download from my store. Simply print off my instruction sheet, download the templates and you’re on your way!mds-box4-sweet-pea2

The instruction sheet gives step by step instructions on how to use and print your template on the computer (both My Digital Studio and MS Word instructions). Then the video demonstrates how easy it is to put your box together, once you’ve printed. We’ll also be using the Fabulous Beautiful Butterflies Embosslit in the Big Shot to make the amazing, shimmery butterflies.

    VIDEO: Calendar using Templates plus Printing


    Posted on December 26th, 2009, 2 responses.

    200912-calendarI made calendars for our family, and all of the grandparents in Stampin’ Up’s My Digital Studio software. The video below shows some of the customizing I did, and how cool the professional printing is. Click the SHARE PROJECT tab in the program for both professional printing and home printing options right from the MDS program.

    CALENDAR DETAILS: I used the digital Hoppy Days scrapbook kit template & 2010 Calendar template for the basic layouts (I’ll post the steps to do this below), these templates come with the MDS software program. I customized some of the layouts by changing photo layouts and adding backgrounds to the calendar. I added a Birthday Candle stamp, and name for each family member’s birthday (this might be hard to see in images). I changed the background paper of the calendar date sections to match each page above it (for example when the background page was real red, the date section below is real red).

    Finished size is 8 1/2″ x 11″ landscape. MDS Calendars also come in 8 1/2″ x 11″ portrait X 12″x12″.

    INSTRUCTIONS:

     Steps to use a scrapbook template with your calendar template:

    • Open MDS (My Digital Studio) software
    • Choose “Multiple Output Options” (not Calendar)
    • Choose Calendar Size (your choice 12″x12″, 11″x8 1/2″ Landscape or portrait)
    • Choose “Designer” Template
    • Pick which scrapbook layout template you’d like to use and then choose “Next” {program will create project}
    • Click “Insert” > “Add Other Templates” {Template list will open}
    • Click on the Calendar Template of your choice, then click “Next
    • {Under Page Arrangement Section} REMOVE the photo pages, so all you have showing is the 12 monthly calendars
    • Click “Next” and import monthly calendars (they will import at the end of the project)
    • Drag the thumbnail images of each page at the bottom of MDS, monthly calendar date page will be after the page you want above it. You may need to copy (or insert) a few more scrapbook pages to fill the calendar.
    • Don’t forget to leave a cover page.

    VIDEO TUTORIAL: My Digital Studio Basics


    Posted on November 15th, 2009, 2 responses.

    2009-11-15-mdsJoin me today for My Digital Studio 101 Basics - the video tutorial. Whether you just purchased the BRAND NEW Stampin’ Up My Digital Studio software, or want to but have been waiting to see how it works…this video will help you get started. The video is much easier to see then my first MDS tutorial, and you’ll find this more helpful.

    In this video, I’ll be creating this digital scrapbook page. You’ll learn how to import photos, stamp, punches, text and paper to your MDS (My Digtal Studio) project. AS well as changing colors and adding drop shadows.

    I’ll be demonstrating how the program is so easy to use, you don’t need to know your left from right to make beautiful creations in it! It’s entertainment, as well as education.

    I love the picture, it’s from a recent Stampin’ Up Founder’s Circle trip of my buds Patty Bennett, Dawn Griffith, Tiffany Bauer, Ann Clemmer and myself. We had so much fun (thanx for the pic Dawn!!).
