Cleaning and removing

It's a Quarterly Clean up of all things digital around here...getting ready to start a new period of creativity. All links will be deactivated so you only have one more day to grab any of the QP's, kits and sharing items with links to 4 share. Aug 1, I start a weekly posting of BUILD-IT pages. Make your own page using my FREEBIE package.
Here is the preview and examples of what you will get.
template for the 4 photos, overlays, papers and clip art.

I give you everything to make those QP's..You arrange them according to the instructions or just arrange them however YOU want..

The package will Include instructions of how I got there using PSE6 program..but files should work in whatever program U have since files are in jpeg and png format.

So Ladies and Gents!! if ya want any of the older Freebies--start grabbing them today!! After Tomorrow--all links will be deactivated!!

One More QP & announcement

It has been a fun filled couple of days for me.. I've been learning so many new techniques and tool uses in PSE6 that I just gotta start sharing some of this stuff with ya before I explode with excitement. Next Monday.. for the month of Aug I will be sharing a series of "build-it" pages with you.

Once a week I will post a freebie for you to download. All the elements in the .png format and instructions on how to make the page will be in this file for you. Some tips and tricks will be included in the instructions. Also, I am taking another class with JessicaSprague in Aug. Therefore I will only be posting a freebie once a week.



Now 4share imaging is messing up on me..so don't think that what you are downloading is looking that HORRIBLE... It's the opening in the QP that looks terrible, but I tested it and the actual file is clear and actually very PRETTY.. Just like the image I put here. (see below) It's just 4-share messing things up again and no matter how many times I reload it..It still has a God-Awful-Look!!

remember, next week you will get all the elements and have to make your own page!!

Link disabled... sorry.

I tell ya life wouldn't be any fun if there were nothing new to learn and try.. GRANNY

Sat: QP GummyBearColor2

Just a quick run by today..got grub run to do and then off to see the latest Harry Potter Movie this evening while the guys are taking over the ManCave-Party Garage and play a game or 2 of bags.. It's not a pretty sight when they gather and start throwing things. Chugging a few and throwing things seem to go together with the MEN around here. LOL

One more QP for you using that same color palette-Gummy Bears. Now don't freak out when you go to 4-share. The image there looks like hell. the cut out of the frame looks unfinished to say the least- but I tested it and It looks just like my image here. so Your photo should show nicely once fitted behind the page.

link disabled, sorry.

Am working on an element package of Frames..so you get a nice preview of what one of the frames look like.. Hugs, Granny

Anyone like GummyBear Colors?

Have ya ever concidered the colors of everyday stuff to inspire a page or 2. Well a little challenge to use GummyBear colors (just 2) got me to thinking about hues of Red and Yellow.
You can go darkest to lightest and still be in those colors... Lighting is everything when you want an interesting look on any project. Paper or digital, wall or floor-- it's all about lighting.

In PSE6 there is the tool bar at the top with "filters". Drop down menu with hundreds of choices to add texture, lighting and filters to any image you are working on. Click on "render" then on
Lighting. Play with the features til you find one you like . There is always the undo and do it all again til ya get something like the bugs tails, the stone wall or the background spotlight.

Play around with those features in the tool bar FILTERs!!



There is so much to learn and I'm exploring everything, watching tutorials and learning more all the time... GRANNY

It's a QP !

Well, I've been back to school and not creating very much-Time versus brain cell productivity. The cells are firing on all synapsis, but time to get them visual is limited. I had to boot a few cells out and grow new ones so I could absorb more data with the class I am just finishing up over at http://www.jessicasprague.com/ = inspirational stuff!! Try out her free photo lessons and you'll see what I mean. Learned a whole lot of tips N tricks. easier way to produce the effects I wanted. And found ways to use those extra buttons on my PSE program. (didn't know they were there!)


So my creation is a mini kit and is inspired by Drea @ http://www.scrapadilly.com/ who tempted me with her baked & decorated Cookies. I did get permission to use Name & Colors. That Striped paper is my own secret recipe.





Now it is time to run off to class & put those brain cells to use. Hope your week end is full of fun, relaxin and Cookies. Granny

Tuesday-Freebie extra

I dropped by the DigitalDivas and got caught up in their color challenge this month. head on over for more Freebies in the daily download (which stays up all month) and the color challenge area. You will have to register to get the Daily Download.

Link disabled.. sorry.

I just can't do a layout anymore..or even a quick page.. There is something about having clipart on my beast to play with.. and I had a blast working in PSE6 with these cute little bears..CU and paid for. Marianne'sCreations.blogspot.com and other actions from Commercial-Use.com.

I find myself drawn to CU items only these days..which leaves my "beast" sighing with relief and thanking me profusely by continuing to let me play in the cyber world and creating. So in a short 2 hours I got that mini-kit put together. When I get a new action or clip art item, I unzip and play with it right away. Making and keeping items on hand and ready to plop in a kit. It gets a bit confusing at times since the colors don't always match the kit I want it to go in- but that is an easy fix if ya save the pse/psd file. And I save those since they are generally a smaller Keep-file wise. Then I do have my EHD and keep back ups on it.

BUT

If you have a better filing system, let me know!! Hugs and enjoy the extra freebie!

A NEW (digi scrapbook) KIT

It's Cuddle Time: Hug your babies no matter what their age!!





Here they are!! After 40+ years I can finally scrap those baby pictures collecting dust and fading from being scattered about the place. Funny, but I still can recall those moments cuddling my little ones and their special Smell!! To grab the kits head over to: http://www.scrapdebris.com/ Price is too good to miss.

I understand about the economy hitting most of us right where it hurts and we all cut corners where/when we can, so I wanted everyone to have a little goodie to scrap their own Cuddles.


Sorry Links are disabled..
