May Digi Challenge

 

Today's cards are ones made for the "Digi-swap" challenge on the message board I frequent.  For it, I needed to use papers I printed from a digital file.  I re-sized the images for these first two cards before printing, then printed the others at half letter size.

Card #1 (above): As you can probably tell, I used a metallic gold card stock to mat some paper from my stash, then die cut a fancy mat from the gold to mat the printed digi paper - which I cut to shape.  The sentiment was from a Hunkydory Little Book of Essential Sentiments.

Card #2:

Here I used the printed digi paper for this beautiful background.  I added a die cut matted sentiment (Card Making Magic - A5 Box Kit) and a dollar store dimensional butterfly sticker.

Inside:

Another of the butterfly stickers adorns the inside of the card where I stamped a sentiment from the Crafter's Companion Compendium (CCC) - page named Birthday - Female.

Card #3:

Both the green and the patterned papers are printed from digi papers.  Once again the sentiment is die cut from Card Making Magic (Thinking of You word dies) - the background from the printed green digi, and the main sentiment from white card stock from my stash.  I also used a narrow strip of the green for border - adding a white ribbon from my stash, and a butterfly sticker.

Inside:

More of the green and patterned papers create border & mat on the inside.  Then a simple rectangle of white with a stamped sentiment from CCC Thinking of You page fits inside the mat - decorated with a butterfly sticker.

Card #4:

This one not only has digi papers, but also is a step card - which meets a second challenge on the board. The focal is a Hunkydory image a friend gave me from a Picture Perfect paper pad (as is the one inside the card).  The sentiment tags are from my stash.

Inside:

More paper forms borders inside.  The sentiment is another CCC - this one from the sheet called Celebrate.
