Create Printable

Hi All!  I saw this awesome quote on Pinterest (you know, my best friend) and instantly thought that it would go great in a craft room.  I love fun stuff like this. It fits in an 8x10 frame.


I used the Banner Punch in MDS and filled them in with Sycamore Street DSP from the Sale-a-bration digital content disk.  You can get that free with a qualifying order from now until March 22nd.  The fonts were free downloads that once installed, automatically are put into MDS just like they would in your favorite office software.  :)

Would you like a copy of this fabulous printable for your own home or office?  I can do that for you.  I will custom make you this same printable in the DSP colors of your choice for $3.  Contact me via email at stampinmartha @ hotmail.com.  Its the email in the top header as well if you are wondering. Yours, of course, won't be watermarked either. ;)

It doesn't matter what you create and it doesn't have to perfect, just do it.  I think a lot of people are afraid of crafting in general because they feel like it won't end up perfectly.  Believe me when I tell you that EVERY project has it's flaws.  You just learn to disguise them well the more you craft.  So, take this lesson to heart and just get out there and create!

You can shop at my online store 24/7 by clicking HERE.

Happy Stamping!

Word Bubbles

I saw this awesome idea on Pinterest.  Let's face it, lots of awesome ideas are born from inspiration from Pinterest.  Its a fabulous thing.  My son is 6 and we all know that kids his age say pretty funny things on a daily basis.  I was missing them by not writing them down and my husband was missing them because he is at work all day long.

 
So from this idea was born MDS Word Bubbles.  I set out to make my own digitally, since I don't think I have the time or the right hole punch to do it that way.  I used the circle punch from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack in MDS.  I started by making a basic shape (oval or rectangle) and then added the stem on the bottom. 


Hints and Tips:
  • Place each dot by hand first.  It doesn't have to be perfect because you want the hand done look.
  • Select each dot and group them together to make one item.
  • Change the color to whatever you want.
 
So there you go.  I didn't know exactly where I was going to put them, so I only made two.  But then a friend decided she wanted some for her kids and I needed more as well.  So, it was easy to make mulitples in different colors.  I only used the two patterns shown, but each one is in a different color.  I decided to hang them in the kitchen so we would see them each day.  Then I take a picture of each one before I erase it and I will make a photo book out of them once we have enough. :)

You can order MDS2+ from my online store at any time.  You can also try a 30 day trial for free from the store.  Just click in the Digital section on the left side towards the bottom and there is an option to try it free.  You won't regret it.  Plus, it would earn you some free stuff because of Sale-a-bration.

Order online 24/7 via my website.
 
Happy Stamping!

Butterfly Thanks

My favorite set of the moment (who can have just one all the time?) is Oh, Hello.  Its in the Spring Catalog and I instantly fell in love.  The chevron pattern is so in right now and I love the stamp that it has.  Plus, the sentiments are pretty versatile since you can color them with a marker and only have certain words show up if you don't want the whole thing. 


Spring has sprung here in Cache Valley and we couldn't be happier.  My son is playing outside all afternoon now and that gives me some peace and quiet.  It makes for a happier momma.  I just needed some bright colors and fun stuff to go with our warmth right now.

I used Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight colors.  Pair the chevron stamp and sentiment up with the butterfly punches that we have and you have this lovely creation. Simple and fast....just the way most of us need it.

Current Promotion right now:
  • For every $50 you spend right now you get to choose one Sale-a-bration item free.
  • Use the Oh, Hello to get you to you on your way to $50.
  • Order before March 22nd with me.
  • Sale-a-bration items are limited time only and will not show up again.  Order it now if you like it.
 
Happy Stamping!
