March 17, 2012: My First Blog Hop!
Pin It Now!
And I'm running late! Can you believe that? I've had slow Internet for a couple days here, and now it keeps crashing, so I'm having a hard time getting this up and posted. Sit tight. :)
I'm so very pleased to have joined SU Stars and been invited to join their March Blog Hop, and even more excited that the theme for this hop is My Digital Studio. Now, y'all know I'm NOT a digital scrapbooker or cardmaker, which is why I love that MDS is so much more than that. First, you have all seen my gorgeous flyers, newsletters and advertisements - yup, all MDS! And just look at the project above - that is a MDS hybrid project. :) Hybrid means I made a portion of the project with MDS - printed right from my home computer - then I jazzed it up with all my usual fun stash of Stampin' Up! goodies to make a quick, beautiful project. Fab!
In addition to my gorgeous printed image (which I die cut using the Framelits Labels Dies and the Big Shot) I used some retired Designer Series Paper in Concord Crush, a strip of Pear Pizzazz Cardstock, Whisper White Organza Ribbon and an Antique Brad. This will be great on the wall of my craft room!
Check out all of Stampin' Up!'s amazing digital offerings HERE. :)
NOTE: If you want to recreate the above project, it's super important to find one that is known as a double mat or a float frame. They used to be hard to find, but now are readily available at your local big craft store. Float frames have enough space behind the glass for an Antique Brad without crowding. Love that!
There are a lot of great stops on this tour - if you get lost, here is the list:
1. Robin's Craft Room
2. Stampin' Stace
3. If I Can Stamp, You Can, Too!
4. Loni's Life
5. Elin's Elegant Designs
6. Stamping with Janice
7. CJ Stamps
8. Shari's Stamp Pad

Pin It Now!
Sounds like you all are super excited about the My Digital Studio Express Free Trial! I've gotten so many questions, I've copied the Q&A from myDigitalStudio.net here so y'all can see. :)

Q: What’s the difference between My Digital Studio and My Digital Studio Express?
A: My Digital Studio Express is My Digital Studio software that you can download directly to your computer without having to wait for discs to be shipped to you. The program functionality is exactly the same as the disc version of the software with less digital content. (To see what content is included in My Digital Studio Express, click here.) You can watch a quick video explaining the difference between My Digital Studio and My Digital Studio Express here.
Q: Do I have to have access to the Internet to use the trial?
A: Yes. You need access to the Internet both to place your order and to download the program.
Q: Can I get the My Digital Studio Express Trial on a disc?
A: No. The My Digital Studio Express Trial is only available as a download over the Internet. However, the file is not large, so even if you have a dial-up internet connection, you will still be able to download the program.
Q: What are the system requirements to use My Digital Studio?
A: You can see the system requirements for My Digital Studio here.
Q: How do I order the My Digital Studio Express Trial?
A: You can order My Digital Studio Express through your demonstrator’s online store or stampinup.com. You can order the free trial by itself, or you can add it to an order with stamping supplies or digital downloads. If the My Digital Studio Express Trial is the only item you order, you will not be asked for any credit card or payment information. If you are a new customer, you will need to create an account.
Q: How do I install the My Digital Studio Express Trial software after I have ordered it?
A: You can access your My Digital Studio Express Trial download through the Downloads section of your account. Make sure you select Mac or Windows, and the download and install wizards will walk you through the rest of the process.
Q: Is the trial version of the software different from the paid version of My Digital Studio Express?
A: No. When you order the My Digital Studio Express Trial, you will receive the full version of My Digital Studio Express. The software will function exactly the same as if you had purchased the software--you can design, purchase downloads, and print. The only difference is that you can only use the trial version for 30 days.
Q: Can I place a print order with the trial version?
A: Yes. You have full access to everything you can do in My Digital Studio for a full 30 days. This includes full designing functionality, printing, and the ability to purchase downloads.
Q: Do my 30 days start as soon as I download My Digital Studio?
A: Your 30 day trial period starts as soon as you launch the program. It does not matter when you download the program, your 30 days will start as soon as you actually launch (open) the program.
Q: Will the trial still last 30 days even if I order it in the middle or end of the month?
A: You can order the My Digital Studio Trial at any time. The trial period is not tied to the calendar. The trial period will begin as soon as you launch the program, and you will be able to use it for the next 30 days.
Q: What happens after the 30 day trial period is over?

A: Simply add My Digital Studio (item 118108) or My Digital Studio Express (item 124483) to your next order. If you order My Digital Studio Express, you will not need to reinstall the software. A product key will be e-mailed to you; after you complete your purchase, just enter that product key when the program prompts you to. If you purchase the disc version of My Digital Studio, you will need to use the installation discs in order to access the included digital content. The installation wizard will walk you through the process, including entering the product key (which you’ll receive with your shipped discs). You will not lose any downloads or projects from your 30-day trial period.
Q: What happens to digital downloads I purchase during the 30 day trial period?
A: You will have continued access to any downloads you purchase during the trial period. If you choose to purchase the software, you will simply need to enter a product key, and you will be able to use all your downloads like normal. If you do not purchase the software, you will still have access to your downloads through your download manager, and you will be able to load them to the digital design software of your choice.
Q: Can I use My Digital Studio digital downloads in other design programs?
A: Yes. The My Digital Studio digital downloads will work with any digital design program.
Q: Will my saved projects be lost when the free trial ends?

If you do chose to purchase the software, you will be able to access all your projects. If you don’t choose to purchase the software, we recommend you save your projects as jpg files. You will then be able to use them like you use any of your jpg (picture) files.
Q: Can I have two free trials?
A: No. The My Digital Studio Express Trial will only work once. After your 30 days are over, you need to purchase the software to continue using the program.

A: You can uninstall the software at any time.
Q: Are there other free My Digital Studio downloads available?

December 23, 2011: MDS Christmas Card
Pin It Now!
It's a tad bit embarrassing, but I...the undisputed Card Lady...did not get Christmas cards out in the mail this year. Oh, the horror!! The shame! The...
Well, anyway, sad but true. It always seems odd to me that Christmas, one the same day each year, can always come sneaking up with such shock and and surprise. Oh, hello...you were here exactly one year ago? Really? Where did you come from again?
All silliness aside, I decided to whip up this cute little number and e-mail it out. Isn't it cute? I made it with Stampin' Up!'s My Digital Studio.
I'm making all my Christmas deliveries and running all my errands today, so I'm off "like a herd of turtles" as one of my friends always says.
Have a very Merry Christmas!

July 5, 2011: My Digital Studio
Pin It Now!
I'm having so much fun with My Digital Studio! So far I've only used it to create advertisements, but don't they look great?
I love how flexible it is - I was using Microsoft Word previously, and it always bothered my that I couldn't place an image exactly where I wanted it. Somehow or other, formatting was always in my way. With MDS, I can place elements anywhere on the page with no limits.
Also, elements can be resized! Look at the Modern Label Punch, for example. I wanted it big enough to fit my contact information...and I wanted that information big enough to read! By enlarging the Modern Label Punch, I was able to accomplish both of these goals. And the punch can be filled with any color, as I have done here with Perfect Plum, or DSP, or a photo, or...
Another very cool thing about MDS is all the fonts on your computer are automatically loaded and available for you to use. I'm a font girl - my computer has well over 1,000 fonts that I have downloaded over the years. With MDS, I can use them all! And, of course, all the colors are always perfectly coordinated. Layering is a snap, too!
If you haven't tried out MDS yet, you really should! If you are local, contact me and I can set up a private demonstration on my laptop. :)
Oh - and don't forget my Open House on July 16th!
