Love the card, so simple and sweet. I use digital for calendars and gifts, but not for pages. I love to be creative and take my stuff to a crop. I work on the computer all day so I am having a hard time getting into digital for my pages. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI haven't done any digital scrapping yet. I don't know that I would get the same satisfaction as using my cricut.
ReplyDeleteI digiscrap and print them in photo books.
ReplyDeleteI do make photo books. I haven't gotten into digital yet!

Cute card! I don't do any digital scrapbooks or photo books, I like the idea of the photo books for something quick but I just love to manipulate paper and create layouts! I would love to win those stamps and Love the banner one with the dies! After seeing all the banners on the Cricut site today I'm in a banner kind of mood, lol! I didn't get to enter so I'm hoping this may help! Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDelete((Hugs)) Theresa
So happy I have Winter Frolic cause now I have an idea of what to do with that little mouse! Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteVery cute card! The only digital scrapping I do is to print stuff out and use it for a paper page! And photo books - I made about eight of them last year for different girls in my daughter's Girl Scout troop last spring. It was the simple kind, with preset designs you just drop your pictures into...it was easier than paper-scrapbooking eight albums, sure, but I got tired of looking at the same designs.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win - these stamps look awesome!
that is the cutest card! And what a great stamp release!
ReplyDeleteI like to do both- sometimes it depends on how quickly I need to do an album. Generally I do digital for gifts and traditional albums for my family.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these! They are definitely going on my "wish list"!
ReplyDeleteI still like the feel of regular scrapbooking, although a combo might be ok.. I have so much paper... gotta use it... Love Emma's lastest release.. thank you for a chance to win...
ReplyDeleteKelly O
I did digital scrapbooking before I got my cricut and started stamping also. Would love to get Emma's products!!

Super cute card! I do photo books...or at least when I have time I "TRY" to do them :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for yet another cute card and idea and another great chance to win.
ReplyDeleteCute card. Do a little digital and make photo books.
ReplyDeleteJoy, your card is too too cute! I have done photo books for gifts, and I have done a tiny amount of digital scrapbooking, I am addicted to traditional scrapbooking, and I have an entire room built just for it!
ReplyDeletePlease enter me into the give-away!
Thanks so much,

ReplyDeleteLove your mouse. I love working with paper,stamps and my cricut.
ReplyDeleteWould love to win the banner dies and stamps.
I have done three digital photobooks through Shutterfly and Snap Fish. The digital books allowed me to create a quick book and get some thoughts down. But I will still do a traditional "paper" book.
ReplyDeleteWhile I do use technology (a Cricut Imagine) for my crafting, I don't use digital scrapbooking. Occasionally, I do make basic digital photo books.
ReplyDeleteI haven't made myself try digital scrapping. I really like the hands on approach. It would be wonderful to win Emma's stamps. I liked everything about this realease.
ReplyDeleteI don't do digital scrapbooking. I do love to use digi images on my CARDS! I typically am a card maker. Love love love the fun giveaway! Your card is so adorable!
ReplyDeletethanks for a chance to win!

ReplyDeleteStrictly paper scrapper. I have WAY too many papers and embellishments that need to be used before switching to digital. Besides, I tried a digital page and it just didn't make sense to me. So I'll continue to hoard supplies :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW - LOVE the detailed steps.

ReplyDeleteAs much as I admire digital scrapbooking, I think there is nothing nicer than using real paper, real embellishments. I don't do either as yet as I am just starting out but I just love being inspired by all the lovely creations you share with us.
