Creativity Goes Digital with My Digital Studio

As of the first of October, Stampin' Up! customers will be able to purchase Stampin' Up!'s latest innovation: My Digital Studio. My Digital Studio will make creating cards, photo albums, scrapbooks, and other projects even simpler. It uses the same artwork, colors, and accessory images that are found in our current product line. It will open doors to your creativity. We even offer professional print services or you can print at home.

Your projects can now be 100% digital or a mix of digital and traditional. Print out your pages individually then embellish at home with ribbons, brads, etc. or have your complete project printed and bound in a beautiful book format. You can even use this product as a designer ... by designing on the computer first you will be able to see your project before using your paper and embellishments. Isn't this great!!! No more wondering if something will work or wondering how it will look. You will know immediately by creating it on the computer first.

As a demonstrator for Stampin' Up!, I was able to pre-order my copy of My Digital Studio this month. I have been busy taking classes, learning as much as I can to use the program. Last night I finished my first album and sent it off to the printer thru Stampin' Up! I chose a leather cover, book bound style for my album. It was so easy to add in photos, change papers, and add in embellishments and text. There are even templates to use or you can create your project 100% from scratch. Up to you.

The program allows the user to save individual pages/projects as jpg images. My album is filled with photos from our cruise to the Mexican Riviera in April of this year. Here are just a couple of my album pages:


Cabo San Lucas is such a beautiful area. We docked out in the harbor, and if you want to go ashore you have to take a tender (small boat) in. Sitting on our balcony we could see the beautiful rock formation that it is known for, a pirate ship, seagulls, and beautiful views.


We had our first ever AFT balcony cabin which meant we were on the very back of the ship. We could watch the wake of the ship. What wonderful views too. We cruised on the Mariner of the Seas, and the ship is immense !!!! The week of cruising went by so quickly. It was wonderful to spend time with friends and just relax.

By the end of the cruise, we were already planning our next cruise with our friends. The next one will be to Alaska on the Carnival Spirit.

Wouldn't this make a wonderful Christmas or Hanukkah present !! The release is perfect timing for holiday gift giving. It will work both on PCs and MACs. There are over 2,000 images (papers, punches, embellishments, and stamp sets) that come with the software program.

If you have any questions about Stampin' Up! or My Digital Studio, please contact me.

Mary great pages. Im curious, can you use other software in conjunction with this new software? Say like digi papers from another company or is it strictly SU? I'd be interested in getting this product it I could use it with all the other digi stuff I have downloaded onto my computer.

Bridget, my understanding is that you shouldn't have a problem as long as the format of what you have is jpg or png.

~BridgetL~ said...

Oh Thank you for answering my ?. That is good to know.

Mary Director said...

Bridget, you are welcome. I'm doing a bit more research too ...wrote Stampin' Up! to confirm. If you would like to order any Stampin' Up! products, please let me know. My Digital Studio will be available as of 1 October to our customers.

Hal and I took the photos with the exception of the Hubbard Glacier one which was taken by our neighbor this summer. We've been to Alaska twice before .. just never to Hubbard Glacier or to Glacier Bay.

Bridget, I heard back from Stampin' Up! and they confirmed what I told you. As long as your files are jpg or png, My Digital Studio will be able to use them.
