Crafty Secrets Design Team Challenge "Childhood theme"


Welcome to another fabulous Monday! I am honored to be participating in my first Crafty Secrets Design Team challenge today. Our theme was childhood. As some of you know I recently had all of my childhood slides scanned onto a CD. It was expensive, but it is so nice to have these images (and some film, too) digitally.

I made my project in Photoshop Elements and used the fabulous new Crafty Secrets "Creating with Vintage Patterns". All of the yummy papers and journaling mat are included on the CD.

I cut 2 inch squares for the layers. It is really important to activate your grid in Photoshop elements in order to get everything precisely lined up. The grid is located under your view tab and select grid. It really will help a lot.

What a great idea to get those photos loaded digitally. I can't imagine how much that cost and the organization, but at least you now have great access to them. Fun! Great first challenge! Congrats!
