Coming soon: My Digital Studio

There are a lot of exciting new products coming in the 2009 Holiday Mini Catalogue, not the least of which is our new My Digital Studio scrapbooking and card making software! My Digital Studio has been in the works for a long time, and we are thrilled to offer it to you very soon! This feature-filled, easy-to-use software includes a rich digital collection of exclusive Stampin' Up! art, papers, colours and accessories that will give you nearly limitless creative possibilities. You'll also have access to an ever-increasing library of downloadable digital images that are perfect for seasonal projects, important events, or just everyday projects. And when you've finished your project, My Digital Studio gives you the option to have your work professionally printed and delivered straight to your door!

As a crafter, My Digital Studio gives you a whole new range of possibilities by enabling you to create unique, multidimensional "hybrid" projects that combine traditional Stampin' Up! products layered on top of digital creations. Even as we've worked to develop this software, we've seen the appeal it has for men, youth, and others who have shied away from more traditional crafting. With My Digital Studio, these new possibilities are yours for the taking!

As we get closer to releasing My Digital Studio, we'll provide more information about this exciting new product and all its possibilities. My Digital Studio will be released this fall. Please watch for a Current Update announcing an order date in the near future.
