Hey there :)
I'm going to be away visiting family for a couple of weeks so there won't be any posts going up during that time but I will be back soon with more digis, cut files and more. See you soon!

Good Afternoon :)
I have 2 tag cut files for you today, they have the same design but you have the choice of single ended or double ended and can be attached to your projects with brads or ribbons. I hope you like them :)
I popped an eyelet into the single ended tag I used on my card then threaded some ribbon through it, I also added 2 layers of spellbinders square die cuts with my sentiment and some pearls to finish. I printed the blue birds small checks paper onto some cream cardstock for my background layer to match the basic grey paper I chose. The girl in the bonnet in this Sarah Kay image reminded me of litle red riding hood and I coloured her with prismacolor pencils with that in mind.
Here are todays 2 cut files

I have a much requested tutorial for you today :)
I have had many emails and questions regarding how I alter my digis, I often use photoshop to change the colour of my digis but I realise that not many people have it so I have made a pdf tutorial on how you can use Word to change the colour and size of your digi stamps and also how you can add text to your digis too. I am not the worlds expert at computer related things so I hope I have explained the steps clearly enough and it is easy for you to follow, I have used large screen shots and highlighted all of the steps I took along with instructions. I am hoping that you will be able to follow it even if you are a complete computer novice so you all can get the most out of your digi stamps :)

Hi There,
I've made some more circle frames for your sentiments for you today, these have a channel through the middle where you can either stamp, write or print your sentiment. As these are circles you can either die cut them with your Spellbinder Nestabilities, use your circle punches, circle scissor, colluzle etc or simply trim around them with your scissors. I hope you like them and will find them useful :)
I used frame number 4 for my card, I inserted it into Word and sized it to match the circle die I wanted to use then changed the colour to a teal shade of blue to match my paper. I added my sentiment which I turned red and placed in the middle of the frame before printing it out and die cutting. I shaded the image with some pencils and added some sticky gems for dimension, all in all, a quick and easy focal point for my card. I used my patterned paper to dictate the colour scheme of my card but realised once I had finished it that it looks very Christmassy, oops it wasn't meant to ;)
Here are your digis:

Good Morning!
This is a very quick and fun card I put together using one of my favourite stamp sets, its a Hero Arts one called Playful Animals, it's got cute little elephants, monkeys, owls etc and is perfect for when you need to make a kids card in a hurry. I used the little crocodile on my card and knew that the reptile skin font I had would be a great match for my sentiment. To add to the 'snappy' effect, I die cut 2 pieces of card with the spellbinders ric rac border to give a hint of crocodile teeth to the card.
Here is your sentiment
