Ho Ho Ho PNG

I was playing around in Photoshop Elements and learned how to make my own PNG files.  I prefer PNG files to brush files to "stamp" my photos.   I hope you like this.  Just open it in photoshop and drag over the photo you wish to use it on.   You can then move the PNG around on the photo or even change the color by using the Fill Color option.

Freebie!!

Project Life | Week 45

This week was easy to put together, it was my birthday, I went to Portland, OR for a work conference, and we had my mother in law's Surprise 70th Birthday Party.  All in all lots of things to document.  I used the Kraft Kit for my pages this week.  I only used one digital stamp this week on Carly's picture while she was painting her pottery.  I need to break down and buy a few more PNG files to use for stamps as I want to have a lot of variety.  I also bought my first clear stamps and acrylic blocks to use with them this week.  I used the clear stamps to stamp the week and "My Birthday" on the title card for this week.  I tried using a clear stamp on a photo, but I didn't wait long enough for the ink to dry.  (I am not a very patient  person). 



If you are ever in Portland and have the chance go to VooDoo Doughnuts.  I swear they are the best I have ever had.  

Thanks for looking.  Stacy

Project Life | Week 44


Here we go Week 44 in the books!  I love Halloween and this week I used the Halloween Themed cards from the Holiday Mini Kit by Becky Higgins for Project Life.  This week was a little harder to put together as I didn't have very good pictures of my girls in their outfits.  Carly was a minion from Despicable Me and Regan was a "tutu fairy".

The right side of my layout primarily showed our tree in our yard with the leaves a dull red.  I took the photo on Monday and by Friday all the leaves were on the ground.  Also included are pictures of Carly in her costume, my ticket stuff from "We're the Millers", and Carly's flattened penny from the Wizard of Oz Museum in Wamego.

My second page really documents my week.  It was a pretty crazy week around our house.  You really appreciate water when you don't have it.  It also contains a photo of Regan with her friends, Carly playing basketball and my beagle, Zeke.  


I used a 3- D sticker on the picture of Regan and her friends. Otherwise it is a pretty ordinary layout.

Freebie November through February Calendar

Today I was playing around in Photoshop Elements 11 and developed a calendar for the Project Life system.  I was able to put four calendars on one 8.5x11 canvas.  If you have the We R Memory keepers 3x4 punch, this should work perfectly.  I hope you all enjoy it.  For November I did a standard calendar and then for December, January, and February I went with a Monday through Sunday calendar, since that is how I run my Project Life weeks.  Enjoy!
