Pattie's Creations Challenge #76 - Animals



This is my last challenge card for Pattie's
Creations; I have been on the team since
last November and have enjoyed the
challenges.  Now I shall take a rest for
a while from DT's, so I'll have extra
time to take part in Pattie's and other
challenges. Thank you Pattie and Sandi
for letting me be part of the DT.

A Birthday Card For Hila



Here is the card I have made for one of my
granddaughters'  birthday. She told me she
wanted a dragon.  She also likes princesses,
so there will be a few on her scrapbook page
- when I get down to doing it!

Pattie's Creations Challenge #75 - Gift Tags

The theme for this challenge is 'Gift Tags' - to use
just a tag.  I really have no experience in using
just a tag, but I am happy how mine turned out.
I am also new to using stencils, but I quite
enjoyed using the Medallion as a stencil. I
do have a few real stencils now (which came
in a magazine) and should try and experiment
with them.

I am also adding a photo of how I stencilled
the tag before decorating it.

Freebie Christmas Plaids

Here are a couple of plaid patterns that you can use on
your Christmas cards.  As I don't celebrate Christmas,
I shall use them for other types of card, but I so enjoy
learning different things using PS, that I decided to do
something that can be used by others.  Any feedback
welcome.  Don't forget that by using Word for sizing
you can use the cropping tool to make it any size
you want.  I use this tool a lot. Hope you like them.
