Introducing Orange Crush - summer citrus fun digital kit

Introducing ORANGE CRUSH new in my ETSY SHOP and free for server use HERE for a limited time



Oh what a fun kit this was in the creating process!! Growing up my favorite drink was Orange Crush, I can still remember cracking open that bottle top like it was yesterday! The sand quarry was just up the road a spell from home and we would take a walk there to their "soda pop machine" it was such a treat to get a soda when we were kids!!

This kit is loaded with cute little clusters, elements, frames and papers
the poppies of course, were photographed from my gardens, my grandma had a Mock Orange bush growing up and I remember sitting on her front porch smelling it so I incorporated some of those flowers into this kit, a little trip down memory lane for me here. We lived near a creek and would chase the dragonflies around, memories . . . my lovely Grandma Ruby passed away 6 years ago in June :( We used to sit out there and smell the flowers and watch the birdies, oh such great childhood memories!

The adorable cluster above was created for you by Susan and you can grab that HERE

I will be back with more goodies from this kit, so bookmark my page, or add your email to the list to get notices when I post here so you don't miss any of the freebies!

Beach theme freebie


FREEBIE time!!
Today I am giving you the QP I created when I was working on the mask the other day, with this I chose to use the mask with the overlay but used the knockout style on the mask, thus creating that opening right there in the QP so that you can add your own photo in there, I will have two, one without the scrollie on top since my friend wanted one like that I decided to share it here as well

(yesterday's sample)
just showing how I used my page, the water color I might add was altered to match the paper a little better, use your "magic wand" selection tool and adjust your hue/saturations if you too need to alter something


COLOR COLLECTION ~ TEAL
has so many beautiful papers and loaded down with elements and wordart


This kit is still free for server use HERE for a limited time
you can also see all the goodies there that come in the kit :)

alrighty, today's freebies are HERE and HERE

I have so much to get done between now and Saturday the 21st, my youngest graduated and we are having his graduation party here, soo....
today I have a truck bed full of mulch to get down 0*0 what fun is that?
but . . . it does need it, so enjoy the goodies today, I have quite a few others from the CT gals coming up over the next week and they are adorable!! Stop back and check them out!
Meanwhile, have yourselves a wonderful day!!

Color Collection ~ Teal = freebie mask and overlay

Ahoy there! Today's new goodies will be coming from the newest release in my shop COLOR COLLECTION ~ TEAL
A nice ocean/beach-y themed kit, and to start it off, I have made for you a mask with an overlay :) woo hoo!

For those who are not used to using these, you just simply place your photo over top of the black mask, merge it down onto the mask, then drop the overlay onto the top, I know the steps are the same pretty much in all programs, I use Photoshop, for me, I just use CTRL+ALT+G and it merges my photo onto the mask, just make sure you are on the photo layer when you do it


LAYER 1 MASK


LAYER 2 WOULD BE YOUR PHOTO MERGED DOWN
LAYER 3 OVERLAY


FINISHED PRODUCT

When you are happy with what you have created, remember to save it as PNG file :)

You can do so much with masks, they are a ton of fun to play with and use, I tend to use them if I want a photo inserted on a page and I am not so pleased with the excess of the photo, or occasionally there are people/objects in the background of a photo that I wish to eliminate


Here it is, I overlaid other scrolls and items on the page to give it some movement, you can do soo much with masks and layering, I hope you try it out!

Today's freebies will be the MASK & OVERLAY

This new kit COLOR COLLECTION ~ TEAL is in the Etsy shop as well as others, the links to the shop and the link to the free for server use kits are on the right sidebar where they always hang out :)
