Here's my DT card for the digital release, this is Naptime.  This card show's just how diverse digital stamps can be as the original is just the bunny and 1 carrot. So I used my graphics program (CraftArtist) and come up with this composition. As you can see I loved that I could have so many different size carrots going in all direction too.  Once coloured I used my Scan'n'Cut to cut every thing out. The sentiment is from a Easter bundle purchased from Design Bundles. I used a small piece of acetate to create a hinge for this card stick between the mats. See the link for details of the stamps, By the way these were coloured with my Tri-Blend Pens as I like to show even if you don't have copic's you can still get some fantastic results.  https://www.sweetsentiment.us/ #sweetsentimentstamps #sweetsentiment #copiccoloring #triblendpens 

Here's my DT card for the digital release. This is the wadding ducks. I used my die cutting machine to cut out these flowers to go with the ducks. The die I used also comes with mats so I used them to make the actual card. It's from Carnation Crafts called Into Spring  See the link for details of the stamps. By the way these were coloured with my Tri-Blend Pens as I like to show even if you don't have copic's you can still get some fantastic results.  https://www.sweetsentiment.us/ I've included a photo of just the ducks so you can see the shading. Which was enhanced with a simple lead pencil. #sweetsentimentstamps #sweetsentiment #copiccoloring #triblendpens 

Well I will be so glad when February is over with.  What with trying to slice my thumb off with a mandolin I have for the last 2 weeks been suffering with a bad cold, luckily it wasn't Covid but it was bad enough.  I'm still not really over it but getting better everyday.

We were asked to make each other a little Cupid gift to send to a fellow DT member. I was matched with Allison who's in Canada. I so want to post what I've made as I'm super happy with it my first Scan'n'Cut shadow box (and it lights up). So I'm only posting a sneaky bit. Full photo's will be posted once received. Luckily I had finished both before I hurt my thumb.

I've just read this great post from Mindy at My Creative Scoop. She has a free lesson on colouring a rose. Sign up for her digital library and you can download the same stamp for free (plus a loads of other digital stamps too). Mindy also has a video on how to use digital stamps.

Not had the best day as I was sorting out dinner and managed to cut my thumb in 3 places on a mandoline! Luckily I didn't need stitches (they've glued it), as it was bleeding a lot but I'm not going to be colouring for a bit. Steve maintains this is why you should stay away from the evil veg lol.

I just can't stop colouring this digital stamp from last weekend release.  I've used the Happy Bandit Digital Stamp, he was such fun to colour.  I've used my Tri-Blend Pens again.  https://www.facebook.com/sharonscraftyplace Happy Bandit: https://www.sweetsentiment.us/.../happy-bandit-digital... #sweetsentiment #sweetsentimentstamps #happybandit #digitalstamps #cardmaking
