The Sweetest Soul Scrapbook Layout using Joy Clair Designs Digital Stamp

 Hello everyone, Leah here with a scrapbook layout I've called The Sweetest Soul using the On Your Special Day digital stamp set from Joy Clair Designs.

I colored the digital floral image 7 times with my Copic markers.  Now I know, you're thinking...7 times!  Don't you get bored with it?  I do not lol.

You know me well enough now to know I love coloring florals.  This is one of the only things I can do while I work, and I love it so much,
it's almost as if I get in a trance and don't even realize hw many I've colored lol.

One of the things I love about digital images is that you can resize to any size you want.
These happened to be sized for card fronts, but they were also the perfect size for scrapbook embellishments.

Where was I?...OH yes, once I colored the images, I  cut some of them apart and fit them in as layering pieces in the embellishment clusters.  With these images, who needs stickers and die cuts?!

Ok, so you know I like to share work from my fellow design team members using the same stamp images that I've used in my project.  This month is no exception...this  stunning card by Priscilla is just begging to viewed and shared everywhere!

I have also created a process video for this project and I'm including it here for you :)

Planner Cover Embellishment with Joy Clair Stamps

 Hello crafty peeps!  I have embellished the front of my new 2022 work planner with a digital stamp from Joy Clair Designs called Christmas Joy.


This digital stamp set is called Christmas Joy and includes several different Christmas images, including a wreath with Poinsettias.  I love digital images, and one of the main reasons is that I can resize the image however large I want.  Sometimes I even only use part of it :)

For this project, I enlarged the digital image and only colored the Poinsettias in blue with my Copic markers. 
I layered them onto some scrap patterned paper, and also added a vinyl sticker from a local artist.



Lastly, I die cut some letters for the year and gave them a shadow effect with my white gel pen.

I'm not sure how long this will last, as the planner cover is vinyl, but I think I might try some clear sticky vinyl on top (like Mac-Tac!)  If they decide to peel off, I will turn them into a bookmark for my planner :)  No worries!

I will be back again soon, but if you are looking for some fun inspiration, come and check out the Joy Clair Facebook group:)

See you again soon!
