DT Make it Monday - Paper piecing with digital stamps

 

Hello everyone, Francine here! 

Today it's my turn for another MIM. I really enjoy paper piecing so I want to show you how to paper piece an All That Scraps digital stamp to add dimension and texture on your projects.

 

Supplies you’ll need:

• All That Scraps digital stamp
• Design paper
• Smooth cardstock compatible with alcohol based inks like Copic markers (but you can also do it with watercolor paper)
• Regular copy paper
• Removable double sticky tape or masking tape/transparent adhesive tape
• Glue pen
• Sharp scissors
• Other usual cardmaking supplies to create your card

 

First, choose a digital stamp in the shop or on your computer. For this project, I used Garden Girl Gertie DIGI (Sweet November Stamps). Be sure the areas you want to paper piece are not too small because it could be difficult to cut and assemble. Adjust the size of your digi image to fit your needs.  

Now print your digi stamp two times (and take notes of how your printed paper comes out because later, you’ll need to be able to lay your paper down in the same position):

1. on one sheet of smooth cardstock or watercolor paper (this is the base image you’ll need to assemble your paper piecing),

2. on one sheet of regular print paper.

 

 

Cut a big enough piece of design paper to cover the part you want to paper piece. Then tape your  patterned paper over your digi on the regular print paper sheet. To do that, you can use removable double sticky tape (that’s what I usually do) OR masking tape/transparent adhesive tape. It’s very important to adhere for sure the top of the design paper that goes into the printer first! Personally, I’ve never had problems with jam. Put this paper again on your printer and print the same image out. 

 

Your paper piece is ready to be cut ! Use sharp scissors. 

To give a beautiful finished appearance and to keep the outlines, run a black marker around the edges.

 

Final step: color your base image with your alcohol markers (I did it with Copic markers) or Distress Inks if you use watercolor paper. And only then glue the cut-out piece on the base image. Make sure to add enough glue but not too close to the edges! Finish your layout. You can match your paper pieced image to your background paper as I did. Here is my card:

 

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. Thank you for stopping by.

Wish you a creative day!

DT Make It Monday: Christine

Hello, it is Christine here with the Make It Monday on Saturday. We have a release on Monday which has pushed the MIM to today. 

I am going to show you how to use digi's with word, and overlay images. 

Open a word document.

You want to insert a picture from file.

Findyour picture, mine was on my desktop.

Once inserted you need to change a few elements on the picture. Click format --> picture.

 

At this point you can resize the image, rotate, and flip. One important element is to change the layout. You need to change it to behind text, or in front of text.

Changing the layout lets you move the image to anywhere on the page. 

Here is the calendar on my page.

 

I am going to insert another image into my calendar.

 

Word will put the image at the top left hand of the screen until I change the layout to in front of text.

 

I changed the layout and resized the image to fit in the right hand lower corner. At this point I can print and color the image. 

A new product we will be introducing this month is precolored images. The images are colored with Copic Markers and saved as pngs. They can be used just like the uncolored versions.

You can even add multiple images to one calendar.

Happy Saturday!

Happy Sunday!

Good morning everyone and Happy Father’s Day to all the incredible men out there.

 

Whatever you have planned for today and I hope it includes smiles, loves and memorable memories for you and your family today.

Since it’s a special day, I decided to keep this post short and sweet!

I wanted to share two cards for you today and they are both very different.

 

My first card, I called it my bohemian birthday!!

Isn’t cute…I love the muted colors of the patterned paper, which are from MME and you can find the link to all the products below.

 

My second card is a bit brighter than the first and oh so CUTE!!

So what did you think? Cute huh???

Well I hope that you have enjoyed my cards today and remember to visit ALL THAT SCRAPS for all the latest products.
