Good morning! So glad to see you!
I have some special news to share. For the next few months (4 to be exact) I will be working with and sharing some new items. I have joined the Clear Dollar Stamps Digital Crew!
What is a digital? I'm trying my hand at working with digital stamps, or those you print right off of your PC and create with. You can manipulate sizes and colors... They are so versatile! And that makes your creative possibilities endless! So to celebrate the occasion, I have a few projects to share using a couple of new September releases. Be sure to check out the CDS Blog and Clear Dollar Stamps website to find details on how to purchase plus a fabulous tutorial on working with Digis... I look forward to sharing more wonderful digi stamps of faith from Clear Dollar... So let's dive in...

For my first card I selected Lori McCroskey's Leaves set...
Isn't it darling! I printed the digital background with the lovely inspirational message and cut/embossed it with a Spellbinders die. I added a bit of dark brown card stock cut with the coordinating Petite Scalloped die. The maple leaf (also a digi from this set) was altered to give it a warm orange color and hand cut before placing it on top with dimensional foam. The DP layer was lightly distressed on all edges and inked for depth. I just love this image! So simple and so very elegant!
Now for another peek... This one uses Austin Owen's Garden set.
This one is so yummy! I can't get enough of inspirational quotes and C.S. Lewis is one of my favorite authors. So this set immediately grabbed my eye and my heart! The base is 6 x 6 inches and is double matted. The houndstooth pattern actually came from a Halloween paper pad. I really like the menwear feel of it... I printed the sentiment and flower border on white card stock and trimmed. I added a bit of bling with a dash of Stickles glitter glue on the three blossoms and a silver flat backed adhesive pearl on each. So easy!
Be sure to check out the other fabulous projects my DT sisters have to share! There is so much to share! Thanks for stopping by!
Blessings....

Hi Lori! I just know that you will do a wonderful job for Clear Dollar Stamps. They are blessed to have you...for sure! Your card is wonderful.
I remember when the first C.S. Lewis movie, The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe, was first released. The "world"/media tried saying that C.S. Lewis was NOT a Christian, and that the movie did NOT have a Christian meaning behind it. They were so sadly mistaken! The parallels to the Gospel are SO clear in his books. This is a wonderful quote from a great man of God.
Enjoy your time designing for Clear Dollar, and thank you SO MUCH for sharing your lovely art with us at Word Art Wednesday. We are also SO BLESSED to have you join us.
