I am hoping you all get some creative time in today 😀

I’ve been quite busy here.

As promised I have a video tutorial for you today, so I can show you how easy it really is to utilize the Simply Sensational Shoppe Digital Paper. This collection was created specifically to be used with our NEW! Shop Around & Accessories Mega Template. The paper package features 10 different complete Shoppe designs in both a PNG and JPEG format.

You will want to grab a cup of your favorite beverage, and really take the time to view the video I have to share today, and read the post.

Kristin Bueter has a card to share today!

Also your newest design team member: Lisa Kind has her first solo Release project to share today too!

Here is what she says about her peek today

A teacher I work with just got married in August and our team wanted to get her a gift card, and we needed something to present the gift in. I decided to make a wedding/bakery shoppe using the Shop Around Mega Template in her wedding colors. She wore an ivory gown with a pretty blue sash, so I went with those colors.”

Onto the videos!
This crazy 2 part series took almost 4 days between creating, attempting to download, then having to retake the videos, so I could create 2 separate NEW videos. Anyway, if it helps or inspires you I’d love to know that it was worth the effort. I feel like I never want to do another video again at this point! LOL!

Video Part 1

Video Part 2
 

In this video I will have showed you how to use this amazing Simply Sensational Shoppe Digital Paper, and I will answer some popular questions about the paper pack in my video.

This video will explain:

* the difference between a PNG and JPEG format, and how each is used.

* Why there are dual colors in the paper images, and how to change them.

* How to use your digital image in coordination with your digital stamp images and/or other patterned papers!

* How to cover/remove unwanted pieces

* How to use your favorite patterned papers to add those same colors to your design Simply Sensational Shoppe Digital Paper

There *may* be an additional tip or two I am forgetting to mention, but you will know everything after watching the video.

Now how about sharing my samples?!

There are so many amazing possibilities when you purchase this pack! I will show you just some ideas for how it can be used, so if you

You can mix and match Shoppe elements, digitally color them in, and save for future use, OR use them in black and white, so you can hand color! (a great project for the kids) You can even use our Digital version of our Pretty Impressions images to further add some designs to this paper collection. OR use the Digital versions to make you own.

This template & digital paper combination is sure to allow you to QUICKLY and EASILY make these stunning themed Gift Shoppe for any occasion, all year long!

We are happy to say we are going to offer even more Shoppe themes in the way of stamps and digital papers, as the holidays come around, and may even add a few must have “accessories” to the  NEW! Shop Around & Accessories Mega Template! So stay tuned.

So that lead me to the projects featured in my video!

Aren’t these the CUTEST Pet Shoppe boxes ever?

Amber’s friend got a BAD case of poison ivy, and she bought her this little dog to cheer her up! Of course we had to create a home for it, so we made these. (I had to make two because Amber then got mad her friend was getting one, and she wasn’t :C)

SO this is the lil’ pup that her friend will receive. If I were a child getting this I would have been over the moon!!

As you can see each Shoppe theme comes with 4 decorative panels for all 4 sides of your Shoppe to be designed.

As seen in the video, I customized mine even further! Added a dog house with the dog, on this side.

Paw print on the door here. Flowers in my flower-box!

All around this is simply cute!

Now I took this same design, and layered it over the Custom Construction Materials instead.

On this one I made the top of my awning 3D

ALL the same design, just layered onto a different background! It makes it look like a whole NEW! house!

Now I should share the card that inspired my Pet Shoppe themed gift!

Paws-itively the best!

The dog image is from the On Display 1 set, and was stamped in a shimmery beige ink. I then stamped the grass from Home Improvement.  The addition of the heart on the dog bottom is from Bringing Home Baby.

I made my own patterned paper using the paw prints are from the Sign It Set, and the heart/argyle pattern I created using the Argyle Amazement set! SUPER SIMPLE, and SUPER CUTE huh?

I love the little dog in this set. It was actually designed after the lil dog shaped colorful purse my daughter Amber carried around!

I loved the silhouette so much that I drew this one for me to have in stamp format 😀

As you can see I stamped colored and cut the ear, and put it on a dimensional. I added a googlie eye too. The dog nose was stamped using the dot image from the Argyle Amazement set!

I love the little paw prints I stamped at the bottom adding the little heart that is also on the dog 😀 This ribbon actually inspired this entire creation.
