TLC Designs Inspiration: Winking Wanda

Wink for a minute with Wanda Digi Stamp!

Hi Friends, It's Sunday and I'm sharing a project from one of the You Tube Live shows I do on Thursday Nights at 8:00 pm EST!

Do you use Digi's? Have you ever tried them? Today I'm going to explain some of the things I personally like about digi's with you. I don't speak for anyone else, these are just my opinions.

So today I want to share some of the digi PRO'S I've come across, with all of my crafty friends.

Digi's don't take up storage space

Digi's go everywhere your computer goes

Digital image sizes can be adjusted according to your needs

Digi's can be combined with other digi's before printing with no masking

Digital images can be flipped adjusting the orientation or direction

The price point of digital images are lower in general

The digital images are immediately delivered and there is no shipping cost

There are things about digital stamps that are a bit limiting. However, all in all, they work wonderfully for me and the designer papers are the same as illustrations.

I hope if you have NOT given them a chance, that this information will be considered and perhaps prompt you to give it a go!

INGREDIENTS:

"Winking Wanda digi"

Krafty and Sweet digi papers

Happy Dragonfly Circle Die

I love rubber/polymer stamps and digital images alike!

I illustrated "Winking Wanda" with her cute little chubby face, wispy feathers and that little signature heart when I opened my e-commerce store TLCDesigns.shop in January 2020. She was one of my first and quickly became a favorite!

This card is not the average A2 size card.

I created this card with flaps that close over the front and the Acetate that wraps around the card and keeps the project closed. On top of the acetate, I attached the little scalloped circle die with the cute digi image colored for a topper! I stamped the Whimsy Stamps sentiment inside the card and secured the topper to a card base. That's it! Simple and Special!

Stay Crafty,

New Digital Stamp Release full of Greetings!

Look Who's Brand NEW!

(in more ways than 1! LOL)

I mean the latest digital stamp set with this cute little newborn dragon! The name of the digital stamp set is Dragon Baby "Greetings". I named the image Greetings because of the 9 sentiments that come along with this adorable illustration!

With the Paci or without! Cover his egg with flowers or not! Do you need a little boy baby card or invite or are you looking for an image that will guarantee a smile on the face of the recipient? Spreading some Kindness or sending "Only Happy Thoughts" this digital set says it all for any occasion!

On Thursday nights FB Live broadcast, I make an adorable little project with some design paper from the "Sweet A Cake" digital papers collection with the brand new custom die called "Happy Dragonfly Circle".

I printed the paper with the digital sentiment included and adhered it to stock paper. Then I repeated the process with the previously colored little dragon image from Procreate and fussy cut the image. The designer paper was cut with the largest doily like die in the Happy Dragonfly circle set and I popped each layer up with some dots.

I wound a bit of twine around the die cut until I was happy with the way it looked and grabbed a flower die from the set and cut from stock. Distress Ink color Blueprint Sketch was added to the edges of the flower petals. With black Copic ink, I colored some white pearls and placed them in the center of the flower. Then I repeated that process with a few tiny crystals and created a crystal banner across the top of the card in black to balance off the card.

This was such a fun evening and the input from the viewers were so enjoyable! I hope you love this little guy as much as I do? Keep your eyes out for his three little Dragon friends in Poly too! They're coming very soon!

Stay Crafty,

Paper Piecing with Digital Images

Hiya Friends! Today's post is all about last Thursday's FB Live project! I have a digital image in the TLCDesigns.shop https://tlcdesigns.shop/ store called "Winking Wanda".

Winking Wanda is the feathery glamour girl of the Digi Stamp Shop. Full of character, pizzazz and style (not to mention her flirtatious winking eye). She's ready for watercolor, paper piercing or ink of any sort! She's bold and beautiful and perfect for that CAS one image sort of card that, with a bit of background texture, makes her stand out beautifully!
