Alert the media ~ it's TRUE! I made a card using digital product! A darling chick image and this delicious argyle print from WPLUS9design! My dear design guru, Darling Dawn, has some delightful Easter images available on her website so be sure to visit if you are thinking EASTER!
No, REALLY! If you know me at alllllll, the road to technology has been long, bumpy and, frankly, quite painful! I'm all about stamps, ink and paper.... but DIGITAL? Hmmmmmm.... Well, don't be too frightened, I still used the images like they were stamps - but isn't that the fun part of the option!?! I printed the argyle background, played with the size for a while, added the "BIG easter wishes" sentiment and played with it's size, until I finally put it on TOP of the argyle and much to my delight, I was able to layer it, in WORD and the "BIG" letters stayed solid... So that was cool! I was happy that Dawn's instructions included a lot about doing the digital work in word, so YEAH! For the Photoshop phobes... Word is our friend! {Of course, if you're handy with the bigger graphics technology, you're golden there, too! Dawn has all of our bases covered!}
See! The end result is still pretty much the same - color, texture, image placement... Voila! Hope you're all having a wonderful, crafty week! I miss you! My internet has been down in Scrapland, again... Wah! So, I've been a bit slow about my commenting and catching up with all the wonderful craftilicious things you've been up to... Hope to be by soon!

BUT, most are done and I'm just slowly picking things up throughout the house and will need to stop at Big Brothers Big Sisters soon! Awesome awesome and trying out digital/hybrid... it ain't bad, huh? :)
