   This card was created using an amazing image called "Black Hellebore" by Rebecca Sinz. It's available both as a rubber stamp and also as a digi. Her face was shaded with colored pencils. The following items were used to created the card:
Cardstock
Design paper by Bobunny
Pearls by Prima
Flowers- Wild Orchid Crafts
Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays
Doily
Frame cut from Cricut
Vintage lace
Tickets by Recollections
Vintage Photo- Tim Holtz
  The background paper was dry embossed and inked it with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. The frame was sprayed with a coral shimmer spray, as were some of the flowers. The doily was sprayed in a Moonshadow mist called Ethereal Emerald.
 In this tutorial, Lori demonstrates how to shade the flowers using ink from a stamp pad and a blender pen and then adding mica over the top for that special POP of sparkle.

This week I'm showing you another use for your new Digi images from Sweet Pea Stamps - don't you just love these, I got so enthusiastic I bought rather a few.  The Sweet Pea Stamps Digis are wonderful quality and the range is growing every week - so check back to see if your favourite stamps are available yet.  Don't think of them as 'just' digital stamps though, but as the beginning of something really exciting.  Watch as I show you how to transfer your laser printed digi image into a book, the same technique can be used to transfer your image onto canvas, or even fabric (as long as you don't wash it afterwards)!  For my journal I chose to transfer the beautiful Black Hellebore image from Rebecca Sinz - what image will you use for this technique?


Back with more next month,  but in the meantime you can check out the projects from our brand new DIGI Team (Ali, Gry and Nataliya) for more fabulous ideas.
