Wikipedia says that Hybrid means this:
Hybrid (biology), an offspring resulting from cross-breeding
So that is what this card is without the breeding…ha! This is not that kind of blog.
I have a private class on Wednesday and I wanted them to do a hybrid card using My Digital Studio (MDS). Do you know you can go to www.mydigitalstudio.net and get tons and tons of ideas and see videos on how to do some fun things with the program? So awesome. So while I was over there, I saw this card by my friend Heather Summers (Hey Heather, can't wait to see you & Marcy in a few weeks!) and she was inspired by my other friend Mandy Grant (Hey Mandy, sure gonna miss you at Founder's) and I loved it. Thanks so much girls.
It's basically designed online using the My Digital Studio program, I have SU! printers do the printing and when it gets here I trim it, mount it and stamp, add ribbon and embellishments and voila' an amazing quick card. The ornate background and the bird are printed through MDS, and the oval punch and modern label are stamped images. I did a video on how this is done, using one of the cards from my MDS card class. You get two cards for the price of one. That's kinda like BOGO isn't it?
It is hard to see but it uses the fun Glimmer Brads. I wish I knew how to photoshop like a sparkle star thing on it, like they do in the orbitz gum commercial when the teeth twinkle and sparkle.
Stamp Set: Notably Ornate
Paper: Crumb Cake, Basic Black, MDS card
Ink: Basic Black
Misc: Oval punch, Modern label punch, black glimmer brad, Cherry Cobbler Striped ribbon
Well I better get my butt back to work, I have one more card to design and cut for Wednesday.
Have an awesome Tuesday and thanks for stopping in.
I love the card. My favorite has to be that ribbon. That ribbon is one of my favorites in the whole catty. I bought just about every color last year and didn't use it much. I am a hoarder. Now I will use it for presents if I don't continue hoarding it. It is fantastic for that. I hope you are getting back up to speed in how you feel. Hugs and licks
Carey (I am the hugging one) and Roscoe (he is the licking one in case you didn't figure that one out)
Hey Sweet Friend! I'm honored that you liked my card and cased it!!! I'm going to miss you too but I KNOW you'll have a fab time at founders. You deserve it girl!
