Scrapbook page

HI everyone, thank you to my new followers who have decided I am good enough to follow, I really appreciate seeing you here. I hope you enjoy your stay.

Now to entertain you this beautiful Spring day, I am offering you a scrap page with a starring role of my baby brother. I shan't explain anything about it as his words are the ones which were used in an email to me with a picture of Chloe. My SIL took the both of them having an afternoon nap, (yes Chloe is sleeping) and sent it to me

Trying to be Arty?

The Stamping Boutique has a flower digi for it's challenge on Facebook, I have just received my winning magazine  so had to have a go at "trying" to be arty as there were wonderful examples in the magazine.

This is my attempt, using 21 layers and blending options in PS. I know the professionals use a lot more, but I thought this was enough for me to start with, although sometimes I use a great deal more layers for my cards.  It's a start anyway, hope to carry on doing a bit more "arty", although I haven't a clue what it means LOL. Hubby thinks I should have used different colour for the flowers what do you think? Let me know.

Here is my card for the challenge. Quite a bit different!

Anything Goes with a Sketch

I've decided to go with a scrapbook page today, with elements and paper from the Make Me Smile kit from Scrappiness Designs  it's such a feminine kit, the sketch is by our own DT member  Denise Pustelniak  I added the elements from the kit as per the sketch, added shadows to each and did a little "erasing" to the ribbon so it looked like the twine was around it. The picture in the middle was taken in the garden during a particularly hard frost. The butterfly element on the tag was "played" with until I thought it looked like it was woven into the tag. All done in PS.

Hi Everyone, for my DT project today, I decided to do something a little different as I thought this little chap rubbing head was just right for a card front. I suppose it could have been a forgotten birthday, but he did remind me of my baby brother when we were younger, not that he is that old of course LOL.  I added lots of embellishments and even added a curl to the page, all in Photoshop.

 Embellies are Sheila Reid's kits at Pixelscrapper.  I added the fairy, so that hopefully, she will help him remember that he left the bike at the lamp post down the street :)  AND she lives under the mushroom.
