I'm learning to go digital

Hi everyone,

Firstly thanks for the well wishes, everything is fine (& not too sore).

If you know me, you will know that I am not too bright on all things computer related.  So you can imagine me trying to learn to make a digi card.  I spent literally hours & hours trying to get Gimp to work for me.  After a few cuss words, tears & a long time looking for tutorials on how to use Gimp.  I have finally gotten there....................................sort of.  Here is my second attempt at a digi card.  Every thing on this card is from free digi stuff I've gotten or been given. 

 I don't normally do simple cards.  But I really do like this one.  I must admit I decided to add the stitching after I had put the card together.  Normally I do everything then add it to a base card.  I was inspired a lot by the incredibly talented Lucy & also the equally incredibly talented Alice.  Lucy for her simple style (something I can't do) & Alice for the way she colours. 

This "page" I whipped up in about half an hour.  I really am pleased with the way this came together.  All the elements on this page except for the butterflies are from this free kit.  The Butterflies are from Hero Arts & can be found here. 

I am always going to love my rubber stamps, because I love to colour them in with Copics. 

Happy crafting everyone xoxoxoxoxo
