a digital image

Now this is a fairly new thing for me. It is my great grandson's birthday and somehow I didn't have exactly what I wanted to make him a card. So I got online and checked out the digis. We bought a new printer and it works wonderfully well with my copics on Staples cardstock! The image is from Mo's Digital Pencil - she has such cute things! But then so do a lot of sites. The really nice thing about digitals is the storage - they stay on the computer or a jump drive!! I am just beginning to get the hang of moving them around and really not into - yet- making scenes. But I found a whole lot of images that I purchased for cards looming in my future!! I put a whole lot of them on one sheet of cardstock and printed them with the file names above the images. That will go into my book so that when I am looking for just the right thing, I will have them to chose from as well as the other stamps I own. Well, I just love the way this card came out!! The stamp is called superduper boy. Soo cute and reminded me of our guy who is 3. Hope you enjoy it! I really appreciate you letting me know how you like the cards I post. Extra hugs for looking!!
 
Here are the copics I used: R37, R35, R32, Y31, Y35, E33, Y21, Y11, B12, B14, B91, E00, E11, C5, C2. I put red gems in the corners and glued them extra so they won't pull off. Cut the papers out with spellbinders dies. That blue paper is white cardstock colored with Tim Holtz' broken china distress ink. The next nice thing about this being a digi was that I typed in the Happy birthday Kai (short form of his name) and got to chose the font, color and size!! I had such fun making this one. I just love it!! Hope he will too. Hugs to you all, Barb F

Your card is wonderful. I, too, am enjoying digital stamps. I find they often have more detail than the rubber ones. Have fun with them.
Hugs,
