Making the most of your stash = bad title
What I really want to do to just share some tips about scraping. I should preface all this by saying I use PhotoShhop. Tried PSP once but couldn't get into it. Recently I looked into getting an updated PS program but learned they no longer sell the programs, instead charging a monthly subscription. I think it is ridiculous to pay $30 a month when, for me at least, there will be times I may be unable to use the program all or ost of the month. I'm open to exploring other software if you can recommend something but for now I'll be working my very old PS Elements until it dies. I do have a copy of PS Creative Suite 3 - also old - but it isn't on the computer. Anyway . . .
I'm certain that like most of us, you keep your eyes open for freebies. You may have seen some great looking tagger kits (people still make those, right?) and thohught, what a shame it's tagger. Just because you may not do tags, don't dismiss these freebies right away. While the backgrounds are small, too small for most purposes, the elements may be sized for tags or left larger. I usually ditch the backgrounds unless there is an unusually interesting one. If so, I might keep it to use for cutout elements like flowers, or might be able to stretch it a little to use as an ATC (Artist Trading Card) background. The elements can be used in regular scrap pages if large enough. If small, those elements can be used for journal pages or ATCs.
I was going to make an example ATC made with tagger kit but got called away.
I have a St. Paddy's Day zip for you today with more to come. No preview on this. It is a combination of elements, some extracted, some not. Hope some of it will be useful to you.
