Good Morning Stampers and Crafters out there.  Today's post is about MDS2.

 I am a traditionalist when it comes to stamping,  but I find that sometimes TIME constraints requires me to use MDS2.   If you like the projects that I am creating and  you would like to try MDS2  you can for free right now!  No obligation.  If you decide you like it the cost to you  is only $19.95.  If it seems like you don't know where to start when it comes to the digital world we can all get together and have a class or I am Srapbooking at the King George Citizen's center on the second Friday of the month.  Just bring your laptop and I am happy to digitally design away with you.  My upline recently created a journal using MDS and can't wait to share that with you in the near future as well. 

Every Tuesday the newest downloads come out and if you would like to purchase them follow the link at the bottom of my blog or go to troberson.stampinup.net.

Here are this week's newest downloads


Remember all templates can be customized with other colors, and embelishments.  If you like the pattern but not the color you can recolorize with a touch of button and it will monochromatically change it for you.

So excited to discover the possibilities of MDS2 with you!!!

Up Up and Away

Good Morning Crafters.  Just a quick one this morning.  Last night I worked on a prototype project that will end up being modified.  The main point was to use the new technique that I learned CLEAR BLOCK STAMPING.   I did the background with this technique and sponged on clouds using the scallop punch and a dauber to make clouds.  Come out to our May Craft Club and make your own.   The designer series paper is This and that, the button is the faceted button, calypso coral bakers twine, and rhinestone.  I created the images using MDS.  The punches used were Large Oval, Scallop Oval, and Scallop to make the clouds.  We are doing many new and exciting things come and check out our craft club the first Friday of every month with the exception of July we are going to create a Christmas in July Extravaganza so I see a Saturday for that one!  Let me know what you think.

Just "Chicken" In

Ta da... Well here Goes.... My first post. I am so excited to be on here tonight sharing with you what I love. Stamping and creating. Tonight for my first post I am going to show you a "cased" project from a speaker at Regionals. Michelle Suit Stampin Up Manager from Manasas, VA. She did a wonderful presentation on Workshop Wow's. She does THE MOST AMAZING punch art.

Tonight I went up into my craft room ready to create only to discover that I had loaned out the punch that I wanted to use. But never fear MDS to the rescue!!!!! In a matter of minutes I went and created Chicken pieces parts and a saying. It was so easy to do.
