As many of you know I use a fair few digital images - but I've been a bit scared by the thought of digital papers. I LOVE the idea that I wouldn't run out of my favourite pattern - but the thought of spending MORE time going through computer files put me off - though I have used the odd one I keep forgetting they are there!!! Recently I started chatting with the lovely Donna Smith from Bearly Mine Designs. She designs some gorgeous papers and convinced me to try some out. She also has some FABULOUS freebies on offer on her blog if you want to give them a go yourself.
These beautiful soft toned papers are digital papers - and I LOVE that the lace edged set can be re-sized so I'm not chopping off the lace edges to fit my card! I am going to source a cheaper version of my printer ink and make a sample book with any left-over scraps to remind me what I have.
The image I've used is from Just INKlined and can be found HERE. It's meant to be a wedding purse but I think it would be perfect for Mother's Day too, or even a birthday card. You can't see it here but I've used my silver Spica pen over the swirls in the bag to add a little glamour! And look - I found some new flowers at the recent paper show - LOVE the lilies and carnations and none of my roses matched the ones on the bag - LOL!

I've never toyed with digital papers myself, either....you've sorely tempted me with this beautiful creation!
ReplyDeletemmmmm I too have thought the same thing Debbie but Im loving the idea of creating a sample book to source from, I just knew you would come up with a great idea if I waited long enough,bahahaha. Seriously love the card. The image is coloured perfectly and such pretty colours, hats off to you once again,xxxxx

So very beautiful! I love the soft colours!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, lovely papers, so soft and feminine. Thanks too for the comments on digital papers, have been thinking your same thoughts. Printer ink is so expensive and seems like I am always buying more.
