Introducing My Digital Studio…on my blog!!!

Posted on

My Digital Studio is digital software for you to create fabulous projects using the same Stampin’ Up colors, stamps, and embellishments you already love. You can create cards, scrapbooks, calendars (perfect for Christmas gifts), and much more! Every Tuesday, Stampin’ Up comes out with new fresh downloads which can vary from a template for your Family Tree Photo Album to your next Birthday Party accessories (invites, banners, tags, cupcake flags, napkin rolls, and more.) You can also create your project by picking cardstock and placing a stamped image on there and hitting print! Here are a few of my latest projects:

My Digital Studio, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This card was created using many products you are use to seeing but I was able to change the sizes and make them work for my card. For example, I used the Decorative Label Punch for my names and I increased the size of the black one so it would border the entire white label. Another great feature is the items never retire even when the real one does in the catalog. Baroque Motifs stamp set is (was) one of my favorite stamp sets but it has retired.

This project was created with one of the templates – For the Bride Ensemble. The sample template for this shows up in yellow and gray but I love PINK so I changed the color! You can create so many different projects it is so much fun! You can even use this for a Birthday Party or even just a regular card, just change the wording!

I have been working on so many fabulous Wedding Invitations and Anniversary Invitations lately that I just have to share some more with you!!! Check out my past posts here and here! These could always be changed to be a Birthday Card, Anniversary Card, or Wedding Card too!!!

50th Anniversary

This fabulous card with LOTS of bling (and I hear Gold is so “in” right now) was created as a 50th Wedding Anniversary Invitation. So perfect with the gold….simple and elegant! I love it (and I’m more of a silver girl but bling is bling and I love bling)!!!

Branch Wedding Invitation, www.LaurasStampPad.comThese invitations above are very similar but I changed up the colors a little bit. I love the Elegant Eggplant and Black one best! What do you think? The branches (Thoughts & Prayers Stamp Set) are heat embossed so they are textured and had a little bit of a glossy look!

Branch Invitation, www.LaurasStampPad.comThe insides are my favorite! The little pocket at the bottom is great for your RSVP, Instructions, Accommodations, etc. I then stamped the same branches on the inside along the wording of the invitation and added a few punched flowers!!

I hope you enjoyed these fabulous Wedding Samples! If you would like me to create invitations for your next party or help you with some ideas for you to create the invitations, just email me! I would love to help out!!!!

Okay so I LOVE weddings! If I could get married every weekend, I totally would because I love my man and I LOVE weddings! So because of this I have started creating lots of wedding pieces so I can help others have the wedding on their dreams (and I can feel a part of it too)!!!!! 🙂 Peacock InvitationPin It!

This fabulous Peacock Invitation is one of my creations which I am currently creating as a Rehearsal Dinner Invite! She requested that I change the purple out for Cherry Cobbler which really makes the card POP! The colors in a peacock are so amazing and right now I love purple so that’s why my sample was created with purple!IMG_1601

Here is another invitation that I recently created for a friend for her wedding back in May! Rustic, Vintage, Lace, and Pearls are HOT HOT HOT right now! I have done lots of different pieces with this theme! This invitation is embossed on the front and on in the inside pocket! Adding texture is so fun because it really adds a lot to the card without adding more product and weight! And we all know how expensive mailing an invitation can be! The Natural Trim Ribbon is perfect because it is very soft and still gives that burlap look!

PlacecardsI have also been doing a lot of different Place Cards, Mason Jars, Programs, Tags for Bells or Bubbles and so much more! It is so much fun! Also you can check out some of the party favors and gift packaging pieces that I have created by clicking here! You can also check out a lot more samples of mine on my Facebook Page – StampinAndScrapbookin with Laura Schmidt-Borchert! 

If you would like help for your Wedding, Anniversary Party, Birthday Party or event, send me an email! I would love to assist you by creating a fabulous piece or helping you with the idea and assisting you with your crafty side!!!

Who likes Party Favors??

Posted on

Party favors are given out at all types of ocassions like Birthdays, Weddings, Showers, and all other kinds of get-togethers! Why not make your next party be the talk of the town with an adorable gift box, bags, or packaging? Here are a few fabulous items that I had out at a recent Bridal Fair that I participated in!

Gift Boxes

The Gift Boxes and Tags on the left were created with the Tag A Bag Gift Boxes and Tag A Bag Accessory Kit! You can get both kits as a bundle and save. Check it out here! And you can earn this kit for FREE plus the bags from now till the end of August! Check out my post about that!  I added in the Glimmer Paper for some bling. You all know how I love my bling! 🙂

Baroque Treat Boxes 2

The little boxes on the right side were created in the Eastern Elegance Designer Series Paper! Oh how love that design and Coastal Cabana is my NEW favorite color!!!! You can put treats in the boxes and set them on all of the tables, you can put your party favor in there, or you can put your goodies in a cellophane bag and tie the Ruffled Ribbon around the top and drop it in the adorable box!!!! So many fabulous ways!!!

Pink Box 2

So have you guessed yet that I am loving the new Ruffled Ribbon and did I mention it is stretchy! Eeee I know how fabulous!!! Anyway….the box on the left is decorated with the fabulous flower on the top, Taffeta Ribbon wrapped around with the greeting punched out on the front. Okay so back to the fabulous flower on the top! I used a Jumbo Sticky Round and then pressed the Ruffled Ribbon onto the sticky from the outside to the inside! I finished it off by putting a Vintage Faceted Designer Button with a Large Rhinestone in the middle!

Mason JarMason Jars are so HOT right now! I recently helped a friend create tags for her Mason Jar desserts at a Bridal Shower. They looked very similar to this jar on the right but instead of the wedding bells, we had cute little saying that combined the dessert type with the Bride and Groom (Oreo Dessert said Greg’s Fishing Bait because he is a fisher). How fabulous! You can also put little take home gift in there like a dry cookie recipe, candy, or other cute little items like nail polish, sunscreen, and so much more!!!

If you need help with any party favors or gift packaging for an upcoming event, feel free to reach out to me! I would love to help you!! Just send me an email!
