My Digital Studio Christmas Scrapbook Pages

I decided today to re-post two of my favorite My Digital Studio Christmas Scrapbook Pages that I previously created with the Stampin’ Up! My Digital Studio.  I had so much fun designing these 12″ x 12″ pages that I couldn’t stop adding elements to the pages, especially the Christmas tree on the first page.

Can you see all the punches, stamp sets, and embellishments that I added to the tree as well as to the second page? That’s what is so great about Stampin’ Up!’s My Digital Studio; you can use its contents for unintended purposes. Wow, does it ever make creating scrapbook pages faster!

The primary element for these pages is the background paper.  It is from the My Digital Studio’s digital download,  Letters to Santa Designer Series Paper, which is only $4.95!  You cannot beat that price for 12 different Designer Series Paper patterns!

Did you notice the black cat sitting under the Christmas Tree? The cat represents my daughter’s sweet black cat, Bottecelli. I love this cat! He is so lovely and wants to be held and loved on all the time. I’ve never seen a cat like him.

I hope you enjoy these pages as much as I enjoyed designing them.  And if you’ve not tried Stampin’ Up!’s My Digital Studio, you are missing out on a great trend of digital scrapbooking.

  • Cut two 8″ x 1″ pieces of the design that you just printed, ensuring the cut has the leaves flowing from top to bottom. (Obviously, if you have the original card stock you won’t need MDS to print a copy.)
  • Lay one piece of the design onto the scallop side of the Tasteful Trim die and run through the Big Shot. (Insure the card stock is oriented correctly so the scallops will be on the right side.)
  • Lay the second piece of the design onto the scallop side of the Tasteful Trim die and run through the Big Shot. (Insure the card stock is oriented correctly so the scallops will be on the left side.)
  • Attach one of the scallop pieces onto the right side of the 8″ square piece of More Mustard Card Stock, and the other on the left. (Insure correct orientation.)
  • Punch a small hole in the two corners at the top of the card stock.
  • Insert a piece of Early Espresso Baker’s Twine through the holes, allowing the twine to hand down slightly. Tie knots in the ends of the twine.
  • Using the Petite Pennants Builder Punch, punch out one set of pennants each from the printed Autumn Spice Card Stock, Cajun Craze Card Stock, Old Olive Card Stock, and Early Espresso Card Stock.
