Never mind, today I got delivery of some new stash for my crafting, some yummo goodies from Craftwork Cards, Doodlebug and.........the new Hero Arts catalogue. I just LOVE LOVE LOVE Hero Arts. Their products are totally gorge and their designers just come up with the goods every year.
Also, I have decided to put to use one of the ten million digi kits I have purchased to make a card, I've gone hybrid. Sorry this pic isn't cropped and purty.
Before I made this card, I was a bit sceptical about the quality of the printed images but, with my trusty colour printer, not a posh one either, it seemed to come out fine.
If you have ever used digital scrapbooking stuff before, it is sized for 12x12 scrapbooking rather than cardmaking.
What I did was to create a new file in Photoshop sized at A4 or whatever you use and dragged the elements I wanted onto the page. I then resized the elements and filled the sheet. I then printed the sheet and cut out what I need, the cutting is quite theraputic actually! The same goes for any patterned paper, resize the images to make the patterns smaller for your cards.
Anyway I thought I would share, since this is supposed to be a "crafty blog" eh?
