Gone Digital!

When I checked Mandy Sarver's blog (CTD's guest stamper this month) I found FREE digital stamps!  I have never tried these, although I have seen them on Tammy's and others' blogs, so I decided to try it--she has a challenge, too, and you could win some free digi images!  So be sure to go check it out!  So here is my first attempt at using digital stamps:

Here is her sketch, too:

TDSSC1 The cool thing about these images is that you can make them any size you want!  I played around using the few Copics that I have, and although I would have liked to have used different greens, all in all, I think it turned out okay.  I used some retired SU Groovy Guava and DP,  but the sentiment, oval scallop and the luscious satin ribbon are all from the new Occasions mini!  I also accented it with some Kaiser pearls.

I also got some other free images (again, on Mandy's site) and made a fun birthday card:

DSCF3797 This card uses some DCWV Glitter Stack Mat Pack, some retired SU DP, and other assorted SU papers.  Polka dots are from PTI; sentiment is a dollar stamp.  The image was colored with Copics and glitterized with some Dazzling Diamonds!  I was really just playing around and was not planning on using this for anything, but it turned out fairly well, and I can always use a birthday card!  This paper is all glittery IRL, too bad it doesn't show up here!  TFL!
