Frosted Fun

Well, I had one of those days where you want to do something, your brain tells you what to do and the end result is something totally different from where you started.
I had this picture of frost on a window, and I wanted to take out some of the frost in the center and keep the rest on the outside of the page. I was making a 12x12 paper. When I was done I did not like what I had, it was so dull and uninspiring. So I went in another direction and cut the paper in three different ways and applied an ice style over all of them. Ta-dah! Frames!
Then I realized that what was left from cutting the round frame looked pretty good to pass as corners, so I included them in here too. The corners don't look perfect, but who is? I see some character in them by looking a bit chipped. I think the end result far exceeded my expectations.
The square frame is 6x6", the round is the same in diameter, the rectangular is 4x6".

All the frames plus corners are in one layer, .png file, 300 dpi, no shadows.
I'm shifting to Valentine's in February. Enjoy!

Icicles & Snowflakes Paper

For you for personal use only, I have this great paper.
For the bottom I used the snowflakes border I made a few days ago. I put it on a layer above the blue background, turned the snowflakes white, merged both layers and then embossed the page.
For the topper I had this great clip art that I just kept tweaking until I got the right look. Then I applied a style on it, so it looks like the ice is actually melting on the page. Great effect.
Lastly, I merged the topper to the snowflake page.

This is a .jpg file, 300 dpi, full size 12x12 paper.

Let it Snow

Hello!
It's freezing here. So much so that yesterday we had freezing rain. Everything is frozen; the snow that's already on the ground has a nice sheen on top. Brrrrrrrrrrrr!
So I decided to work on the phrase. I used font Kingthings Christmas that already comes with the snowflakes. I took out the 'o', then I found a nice snowflake shape that I liked, applied a clear style over it and put it on top (above) the layer that had 'snow' on it. On the 'snow' layer I used a different style, that has more blue in it.
I used font Scriptina for 'let' and Parade for 'it.' I merged the two layers together so I could apply the same style to both of them, and positioned that layer above 'snow' and 'snowflake.'
I added two more snowflakes, just to balance out the image. Each one has a different style on it.

As usual, this personal freebie is a .png file, 300 dpi, no shadows.

Denim Pocket + Tag

Hi! I have a cute freebie today. I extracted a denim pocket from the original picture. Then used some filters to get the look I liked best. Then added the leather tag. On the tag I typed 'darling' and then used a bevel on it, so it looks engraved.
To show you how you can use it, I made two extra pictures. Sorry they're not part of the download. I added a doll and a phone. But you can add anything you'd like.

Square Mask

Hi! Today I'm offering a square (sort of) mask.

DOWLOAD

To use it in your LO you open it then duplicate it and close the original (that way you'll have the original saved and even if you make mistakes you'll still have it saved in a file), then open a clip art, picture or any design and place it above it. Then click Alt + G and the picture layer gets 'stuck' to the mask. Click on both layers while pushing on Control + E and they'll merge. Save with a name you like in a place that you'll remember.
The picture I used is from a trip we took on a cruiseship to the Caribbean Sea. I took a picture of a sunset. Gorgeous. So I used it here. Sorry, you only get the mask, not the sample.
Have fun scrapping!

Grunge Paper Template

Hi! Today's freebie is a paper template. If you look at the picture you'll see three different versions of the same paper.
The first one is the original grunge, in gray, you get that one today. The second one is just colorized. You know, Ctrl + U. I found a pretty green to use.
Now the third one I made after coloring to green. I used one of the filters in PS and PSE: fresco. You get that one too today. All you have to do to change the color is go to your color picker tool and move the hue lever left or right and you'll see it changing colors. It's pretty cool. :o)

DOWNLOAD Grunge Paper

DOWNLOAD Sample

You get two (2) 12x12" papers, one .jpg, one .png, 300 dpi. You get the original so you can play with it, and come up with your own papers. Add another paper on top, do an overlay, merged them, see what happens. You may like it and use it, or you may discard it and move on. Your choice.
Good luck!
Patricia.

Sticky Label

Hello!
I'm adding a different way to label an event, date or situation. And I'm calling it Sticky Label. Original, right? :o)
What you need to do to change color is go Control + U, colorize and start moving the bars for saturation, lightness and hue until you find the color you want. If you're matching something else in your layout, then grab the color picker (shift + I) touch the area you want to match color, then do the above.
I used font Imprint MT in white and found a green hue I liked for the sticky. You can stretch it to look longer or thinner, or make it smaller.

DOWNLOAD

By the way, this is a .psd file, so it's in layers, that way you can work on the top layer and keep the shadow undisturbed. Of course it's 300 dpi, and you can block the shadow if you want to.
Hope it's useful!

Mother Teresa

Hello there!
Mother Teresa was a fascinating woman. There are so many quotes that can be used, I just like this one.
I had a picture of her in b&w, so I used a filter: note paper. After that I just added the words using fonts Edda and Dingle Berry.
Then I used a stamp template for the shape and added a stamp brush. Simple.

As always, 300 dpi, no shadows. Personal Use only.

Abraham Lincoln

There are many quotes that are used that have been said by the president. I chose this one, and I might use another one for Mother's day.
I had a kids shape and used different styles. I added a frame and a cool background paper. I also played with the frame, so you could see it warped in a curve. Neat, huh?

I hope it works for you!

Snowflake Border

With the freezing temps we're having here in Utah (we just got a whooping 8" or more in some places), snowflakes is all I can think of right now.
I used different sets of snowflake brushes to make the border. I put every single snowflake in their own layer. When I was done with the bigger ones and had them where I wanted them, I meshed the layers together into one (ctrl + E). Then I went into the next size, repeated the same process until I got the snowflakes the way I wanted them. I looked for  a brush that would have small snowflakes to make a sweep as a background, but didn't find any, so I added a spatter background and reduced the opacity to 65%.
When I was done, the original is dark, but you can do Ctrl + U and change the color by playing with the levers. I also went to Filter, Adjustments, Invert and turned it white. If you do this, you have to play with the adjustment levers to make the snowflakes go lighter and lighter. Here's the result.
The file you get is the original black/grey. 300 dpi, no shadows.
