Digital Card Making with PSP

I love making my own greetings cards and thought that the card challenges would be a lot of fun. I have a lot of paper and pens...and the other things one would need to make great cards. I found myself trying to keep up with what is new on the market... then I realize all the stuff, the papers, glue, and stamps were getting very costly and I was running out of space to store it all.

That is when I decided to make elements for my cards in Paint Shop Pro aka PSP. PSP is a software that I have been teaching myself since version 3. Now using version 13 I have learned that the program can also create images and paint them as well. Light bulb went off...why not use it to make my cards and not just some elements for the cards. And so digital card making began for me...and boy has it saved me money.

This blog now consist of my creations that I have made using nothing but PSP. I found the challenge for me is to teach myself how to meet the different card challenges within PSP.

Well that is how all this digital stuff began...Just thought I share.

365 Card Challenge - Same, but Different

Because of the different digi kits that I have this challenge was easy for me. The challenge is to use at least 2 papers that have the same pattern but are different in color. In the digi kits you will often find digi papers with the same pattern but different in color. The difficulty came in when trying to choose which kit I was going to use, the other day I download about 10 additional kits. Anyway I made my choice and the challenge has been met...my card is done.



If you are interested the sentiment reads: "Comfy jammies, cozy bed, big soft pillow for your head. Worry not, the world can wait. Take your time Recuperate. Hope you're feeling better soon!"
