Somebody stop me!

Well, I gone and done it. I dove head first into the digi world and I'm LOVIN IT! I've been downloading kits all day and playing with them! Wanna see something I did today? Okay, this first one is a hybrid project I did!
EVERYTHING except for the stamps and ribbon is digital! I created the basic layout in PSE 5 first, using digital papers from The Digi Chick (I'll come back and edit with the name of the paper pack when I find it!) , and then printed it out on a piece of 4.25x4.25 Whisper White cardstock. Then all I had to do was stamp the mushrooms from the Unity May KOM, color them and cut them out, stamp the flower and turtle from You + Me = Happy, and then add the ribbon! Even that stitching is digital! Is it not the coolest thing evah??? Man I'm having fun:)
One more project I created is for this weeks VLV May Sketch Challenge!
Again, I used digital papers (except for the Kraft background) from The Digi Chick! I printed 4 different papers out and then sewed them down on my card. The stamp in the middle panel is from Because of You and the sentiment is a newly released Plain Jane! I added some butterflies and ribbon and that's that!
I'm afraid I can't turn back now that I've discovered how fun it is to print these papers off and have them whenever I need them, w/out exhuasting my supply! w0000h000!
I created a layout today as well, I'll share it even though I was going to wait, don't want to post too much or I'll bore you:) BUT I had fun doing this today...
These papers are from The Shabby Shoppe, the kit is called Damask and Dots and the title alphas are from Promise. I kinda wish I would have made my journaling a little smaller, but I'll remember that for next time! I'm no professional, but I am happy with one of my first attempts:)
Thanks for letting me share, hope you have a fantastic Sunday!
