Diggin Digi!

LOL..so, today I was in a creative mood..well, sorta anyway, and I couldn't find my card making mojo (much as I'm in the mood to stamp and color), so I decided that I really need to attempt to learn my PSE 6.0 that I got awhile back. I really enjoy digi but have been dragging my heals a bit because now that I'm a Mac user, I will HAVE to learn Photoshop Elements! That seems kinda daunting to me but at the same time, I want to work my brain and step up to the challenge! So, I opened up my program, and searched a bit for something to play with (going about this in a total hunt and peck sorta way LOL) and came up with this!



Now, granted it's a quickpage, courtesy of Weeds & Wildflowers (LOVE their stuff), but the photo is mine (took it this weekend) and I've not used my PSE 6.0 before today, I've never used a quickpage before and I did it without any instruction on the program (yeah, I know, not that it takes a genius to figure this stuff out LOL), plus, I love how I could make the picture go behind the framing once I got it to size, something I don't think you can do with the other program I had been using, hence the reason I wasn't using quickpages. I also don't really like to use another's design for my stuff. Not that I hold anything against anyone who lifts designs, or uses page kits etc..but part of the fun of this hobby for me is the stretching of my creative brain, and if just taking a pic and plopping it into someone elses design work is all I did, it would bore the heck outta me! Again, just my personal feelings, no judgement here!

It is nice to know that I have that option though, when my lovely muse seems to take a vaca on me! I think now that I've got some PSE courage going, I'll try my hand at designing a layout using different elements. I also want to learn how to install and use brushes, and, I bought the most rad set of actions that I want to play around with some more!

So, until next time,
Blessings!
