Adobe Digi Kit

I played around with the new Adobe digital kit from Club Scrap.  Last year we made a ride up to the Bandelier National Monument - up nw of Santa Fe, and I thought the pictures from that trip would look good on this awesome papers.  This is the first of a few that I hope to get done this week.

The Friday card of the week

This is the card I posted for my final day of doing the "Card of the Day" on the Michael Strong Group forum.  I used papers from Club scrap, embossing folder from Tim Holtz and made the reeds with a technique that Michael Strong did on one of his TVWeekly webisodes.  I hope you enjoy.

Club Scrap Arts and Crafts Kit

I just had to cut into this paper and make a couple of cards.

Thanks for looking.  We're getting ready to leave Colorado in the next few days so I won't be doing much creating for a few days. 

More cards from this week

I have been participating in the Michael Strong Yahoo group for about a year now and volunteered to do the "card of the day" for this week........I'm attaching more of the cards I did.  I post one on the Try that Technique Thursday post and here are the ones I did for Mon - Wed.

Hope you enjoy. - all of the papers are from Club Scrap.  This first card uses a background that Michael Strong shared called "Tie Dye"......you use baby wipes and pigment inks.  The flowers are from his Cloisone collection, the fiber and beads are from our stash.

This card uses a "frame in frame" technique using the framed stamp from Michael Strong.

and this last card uses the Cloisone Accent stamps from Michael Strong and the greeting stamp from Club Scrap.

I hope you enjoy.
