Birthday Present from Chloe

Happy Monday everyone!

Boy, do I have the cutest birthday girl to show you today! It is a digital stamp from ISS and not my DD even though we did have a birthday celebration this weekend. LOL

We celebrated with my daughter's friends from preschool in princess fashion with Castle cake, Royal Play Dough, make your own RKT castles, and a Royal Court Coin Hunt...sadly though the castle bouncer house lay in our backyard deflated and covered the whole entire day because it was constantly raining. Such a bummer for the party attendants, but my children were able to squeeze in some time jumping in it before the rain came ....Okay that's enough of my weekend story.


My card is using LAST Monday's InStyle Stamps Method Monday tutorial. I had it all ready to go and then my princess party became my focus for most of the week. Now, you need to go see Lana do these coordinated buttons like a real professional.


Ready for another technique? I used a new-to-me technique with digital papers on this card. I'm not sure where I got this idea, surely one of my late night blog surfing, but you can digital paper piece! Click on the whole card image and look at the dress, present and bow you'll see the papers in miniature size of the regular size papers I used on the card. 

Quick How To: For Paint Shop Pro, have both the digi-paper and image open in their own file window. Select All on the digi-paper and copy it. Go to the image and select the area you want to paste the digi-paper (some apps call it Wand Selection) and in the Edit menu use Paste into Selection. Do this for any of the areas you want to digi-paper piece then you're done! Now I think that is a paper (and ink) saver, don't you think?

Have a blessed week!

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
