I've Got Curves!

I found a digital scrapbooking challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers this week.  The challenge was to use a new (to me punch), lots of curves - in the punches and text, and round or curved photos.  I realized as I was creating my page.... how much I naturally like straight lines on my pages!!  But, I did it -- and here is the result:


I love the new Freeform feature in My Digital Studio 2.  It is so cool!!  I used it to create the curved line on my banner, the stitching inside of the blue circle, and for the curved text!  I love how it all came together!  I'm happy to get these photos scrapped!  This was a trip to Six Flags with my mom and boys.  We got soaked on the Thunder River water ride!  It was too funny!

Sometimes you just gotta scraplift....

I was looking through my July/August issue of Creating Keepsakes magazine the other day and found a scrapbook layout on page 27 by Jen Papadimitriou that I knew I wanted to "scraplift."  This page came together so quickly -- I just love when that happens! Here it is:


I had several photos of my son and his baseball teammates on the beach.  I knew a neutral background with some pops of color would be perfect for these photos!  Have I said this enough yet -- I LOVE MDS!  Digital scrapbooking has really helped me to get lots of pages done--quickly!  And, with the MDS Sale being extended until September 14th, I'm trying to get as much done as I can!  Then, I can have them all printed at once at 31% off!  Yahoooooo!!

Have you checked out the new downloads from yesterday?  Lots of goodies that I can't wait to play with!  Click here to see the pdf of this week's downloads.

Travel Log Scrapbook Layout

Ugh - I've pulled a muscle in my back and have been in bed trying to let it heal.  Not fun - but, at least I have My Digital Studio and my laptop!  I was able to get a few scrapbook layouts finished!  Yay!  This two-page layout was inspired by the sketch over at Let's Scrap.  It's a great sketch to get lots of photos on your pages!  Here's my layout:

(Click the images for a larger view)

Most of the elements and paper on this layout are from the Travel Log Kit.  I did sneak in a few papers from Twitterpated and Tickets & Tags that I thought coordinated well.  The title (Timeless Type Alphabet Punch) the banner (Flag Punch), the trim along the bottom (Tasteful Trim), and the brads are all included with the MDS2+ Software.  It is really worth it to buy this "pumped up" version with so much digital content included!  LOVE it! But, if you'd like to give it a try first, remember that you can download the 30-day free trial version here.
