Spring Proverb

Isn't this time of year just a pleasure? Even though I nearly killed myself working on a bed last Saturday (granted, the raspberry bushes needed it), I utterly enjoy being outside, pulling on weeds, watering, clearing beds, planting and just getting busy. I wasn't made to be cooped up in a house. :)
So, today's freebie is a gorgeous page, curled, with grass, flower and bug elements.
I added the proverb, using Angelized and Alex Brush fonts. Then I applied a style on the letters.

5 Flowers

Today I have five gorgeous flowers that can turn a regular layout into a great work of art. Just add ribbons, leaves and swirls and you have a masterpiece.

Beautiful Spring Border

I had this vector clip art that was begging to be used. I didn't do too much with it, except ignore the background. I duplicated the ladybug layer, so I could give it a shadow. The phrases are done in Scrap Cursive and Plantagenet Cherokee fonts.
This is about 5x12", .png file, no shadows.

Spring Butterflies

I loved working on this page. I had originally a 12x12" paper, greyscale that I colorized purple. I added the butterfly brush and took out the paper to the left of the butterflies. I added a yellow style to the cuties, then added the phrase 'spring,' using font Poplar. I rasterized the type, then added a pattern to the word, then a bevel. The left side of the page, under the word is clear, so you can leave it blank (it will turn white when you print it) or you can add a contrasting paper, your choice.
It's still a 12x12" page, .png file, 300 dpi, no shadows.

Use it well!

Wood Frame and Flower

This is a cute frame I put together with elements from Trina Clark.

This design is about 8x8", .png file, 300 dpi , shadows on the flower, snail and butterfly only.
Have fun with it!

Spring Banner

I loved working on this project. Sometimes the gathering of elements is as much fun as making it. :)
I transformed a simple triangle shape into a banner. Each element has either a paper or a pattern applied to the shape. I got the twine from Scrappin Cop. The font is Parade.

I hope it's useful!

Spring Has Sprung Paper

I just love how this page turned out. I spent a lot of time, and it evolved a few times. It started out as a daisy border and ended up as a whole page. Neat.
I used clip art from Trina Clark (http://digiscrapkits.com/digiscraps/), some patterns I made and photoshop CS5.
I used fonts Dancing Script and CurliCue.

This is a 12x12", 3600x3600, 300 dpi, .jpg file, some shadows.

Badges!

I made these using different pictures and clip art. They're from 2" (small) to almost 3" (big).
They're in one .png file, 300 dpi, no shadows.

Two Flower Borders

These two turned out great. I was working on patterns and this flower just jumped at me, so I made three different size patterns with it (sm, med, lg). When I was filling a 12x12 size page I realized I could erase the inside and turn it into a frame or border. After that, I just added two different styles, and voila! you have these.

They're in two files, each a .png file, 12x12", 300 dpi, no shadows.

Spring Felt

I put together different things for this today: some spring and some Easter. I know they go together, but some people may like one and not the other. I just turned them into felt and hope you'll like them.

Green Frame Cluster

Hi!
Since Spring is almost here, at least temps are getting higher and the snow is receding, I thought something flowery would work for today's freebie.
It took me a while to decide, I tried a bunch of different papers on the square frame, but after I found the flower I chose a crumpled paper and copied (colorized) the green of the leaves, then I used it as a mask (Ctrl + G) over the generic frame. I placed the flower and leaves on the frame, then I added the bow and wrap I had from another design and colored it by copying the flower center.
The frame doesn't have a shadow, but the flower, bow and wrap do. Just a little shadow.

This freebie is 300 dpi, .png file, and has some shadows.
Enjoy!

Kind Words

Don't you feel sometimes like a situation could be resolved just by saying kind words?
I can't put myself in every single situation that could come up between two or more people, but just from my own experience I know that sometimes I could've solved simple disagreements much quicker if I'd used soft, kind language.
So today I give this freebie (PU only) with those thoughts in mind. I used a paper that looked a bit grungy, colored it in chartreuse and gave it an embossed look (from Marbled Circle). I had a Chinese clip art that I wanted to use, I colored it in a dark chartreuse and then gave it a glassy look.
I did the letters in Vani and Venezio (if you don't have them, look in fonts.com or freefonts.com or dafont.com - through the years I've downloaded so many fonts from different places that I can't tell where they all came from - some I bought).
The frame came from a shape collection; I cut it in the same paper as the background: I wanted it to look as if rising from it. Then I beveled it. Same with the words 'kind' and 'spring.' And that's it.
I hope you enjoy it.

April's Last Day

Hi! Since today is the last day in April, I decided to do something with the saying about showers and flowers.
I got the frame and umbrella from a royalty free clipart site, I added a background and the phrase. I added styles to the saying and umbrella and turned the frame into a sticker. Simple.
As usual, this freebie is for Personal Use only. No sharing or gifting. Thanks!

Come again soon!

Spring Has Sprung

I made this design by using an old flower frame I had.
I also used PS (I have CS5 extended); there's this nice crosstitch action done by Becky at Marbled Circle. Cool, isn't it? Then I added a stroke and a shadow.
The letters and butterfly have styles used on them.

Until next time!
