Sale-A-Bration MDS History Page




Between work and school, I haven't had much time for paper crafting.  Which is one of the reasons that I love My Digital Studio so much.  I can take a few minutes to be creative without having to take the time pull out all my supplies and then have to clean up after myself!

This scrapbook page is part of my on-going project to document my family history.  MDS has been great for this because it makes it easy to insert images of census pages, marriage licenses, etc.

Most of the items used to create this page are found on the One Big Sale-A-Bration CD, which is just one of the free options you can choose when you purchase $50 of Stampin' Up! products before March 31st.

Happy Stampin',

Elements of Style En Francais



I'm falling in love with Calypso Coral.  And I especially love it paired with Early Espresso!  For the main image of this card I first stamped En Francais in Crumb Cake on scrap paper and then on my Very Vanilla card stock.  I ended up with a light, uneven image - which is exactly what I wanted!  I then stamped the large floral image from Elements of Style in Calypso Coral.  The sentiment is framed with layers of various punches and a few pearls.

Stampin' Up! supplies:

  • Stamps: En Francais and Elements of Style
  • Paper: Calypso Coral, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla card stock
  • Ink: Crumb Cake and Calypso Coral Classic Stampin' pads
  • Accessories: Pearl basic jewels, Crumb Cake 3/8" taffeta ribbon
