Digital Scrappers - Post pages here!!!

I'd also suggest more staples/clips/fasteners. Mix it up! You have some things fastened but not others (the pics), so maybe try fastening them all in different ways.

HHHMMMM this has given me some ideas. Thanks! Sadly, actual work calls so I've got to leave it for now. But hopefully by the time I get back to it I'll be inspired again.

Thanks everyone for your comments. They really go along way towards helping me focus on what to do.

Hi guys,

Haven't had much to post lately because I can't seem to find time to scrap anymore. I've got this camp coming up next week that I run (we have over 100 9-10 year old Cub Scouts coming). Someone tell me why I volunteered to do this again this year? I'm sure I'll remember next week when I see their little faces, but right now... argghhhh!!!!!

At least the skills I've learned digiscrapping are coming in handy because the commemorative video I make this year should be better than ever!

But I just wanted to pop in and let you know about a new blog that's up as of this morning. A lot of the designers on this list I hang out on have been appalled at some of the nastiness that goes on at some of the grab bag revelation sites. Seems that most of it comes in the form of anonymous comments (why is it there are so many people in the world who's mommas didn't teach them to stand up and be a "man" and take credit for what they say? Am I the only momma that still teaches my sons to be man enough to take credit for whatever comes out of their mouth?)

Anyway... this new site doesn't allow anonymous comments. It does allow comments but they'll all be moderated and no anonymous comments allowed. The site is http://strictlyreveal.wordpress.com. It might be offering mostly designer resources but I think it's also going to showcase some "finished" products as well (scrapping resources? Not sure what the opposite of a designer resource is ;-) ).

I don't know about you but I've never been much for buying grab bags becuase I like to see what I'm getting. So this site is going to be somewhere I'll head often. And I know the lady that's running it and I can promise you that there won't be the same kind of nastiness that you see on other reveal sites.

Just thought you might want to know about it.

I never did post these, although people asked to see them. These are the shirts I made using Britt's Shiver Me Timbers and some PotC images I found online. Made adult ones too, and we all wore them to the Pirate & Princess party!

Front

Then we asked them to see the backs of the shirt, my son the goofball

And both backs

And here is the shirt image closeup

Hi Guys.... Happy Scrap Girl over at ScrapMatters has a super cute kit out called "Wild." It would be perfect for AK LOs. http://scrapmatters.com/shop2/index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=6&sort=20a&page=2

Here are a couple pages I did from the San Diego Zoo....

Christy,

Love your layouts - and once again - you twist my arm and force me to go shopping!

These are really cool - I wish I had a Boy - My Girls have no interest in Pirates. Did you use light or dark transfer?

Umm no clue. DH did the printing and the iron on part.

Hi Guys!

Everyone keeping busy? Y'all pray for me... that camp is getting closer and closer and closer. LOL

Fran, the shirts are adorable and your sons are even cuter -- especially the little goofball.

Yzer... love the legacy flight LO... very interesting to know and very sharp LO. And usually I can't stand Courier font but this is perfect for this sentiment

DisneyCruiser -- love the way DH (?) is protecting your baby from the tiger. Great picture!

Here are a couple that I did over the weekend. verything is from Misty Cato & Robin Carlton's All American Girl kit except the frames which are from Penny Springmann's Bent Bunch.

Oh Sheila, how cute!
Christy, I've been looking at that kit this morning! love it! Great LOs!

Need some help!
In Jessica's challenge, we talked about using the "stroke outline" function to make the word art look like a sticker. So, I was working on a LO and used the "stroke outline" to create a border around some photos. Then I finished the LO. Now I don't like the stroke outline and want to remove it around the photos. Any ideas how to do that?? I don't want to just hit the "undo" button because I "did" so many things to the LO. Am I stuck just starting over?? Thanks for any help!

What version of Photoshop are you using? In PS7 its pretty easy to remove. On the layer there is a small triangle that points to the right, if you click on that triangle it drops down a submenu that lists the FX that you have applied. If you click on stroke FX, you can drag it do the trash can to remove it. Or you can hide that FX. Not sure if that will work for the version you're using.

Thanks Melissa! I should have mentioned my program. I have PSE 6. I'll have to try your method and see if it works on PSE.

While I am talking about PSE6: Apparantly Atomic Cupcake does not work on PSE 6. Does anyone know of something similar to Atomic Cupcake that will work on PSE 6? I probably should contact Atomic Cupcake -- I"ll do that as well.

 

[stenogoddess]

I've never had any luck getting Atomic Cupcake to work in PSE 5 either, but that could just be me. If you figure something out, please share it!

What do you mean by "Atomic Cupcake doesn't work"? Do you mean Atomic Cupcake's actions? I use them in PSE 6. That's how I made those titles for the challenge last week, using their gel action. The actions come with directions for lots of versions of PSE. Just make sure you follow the ones for PSE 6.
