Best of the Scrap Girls Blog: I Never Finish Anything

Note from Ro: Dinny... what can I say? You crack me up.

div

The evidence is all over the house:

I never finished painting ANY of the kid’s bedrooms.
I never finished five or six different sweaters I started knitting.
I never finished sewing a swing coat in 1991.
I never finished sewing those pants for Jacki when she was two.
I never finished organizing all of my arts and craft supplies.
I never finished painting the trim throughout the house.
I never finished reading those books on the shelf.
...and so on.

I thought I should make a mini digital scrapbooking album from all of these events. I have it ALL planned out... it’s going to be a 4x6 album that I found at Target a few years ago. I envision the cover of the album as hand-stamped letters: “I Never Finish...” On the left side of the album will be photos of the projects and on the right will be the story behind the unfinished item so that the album has continuity.

But, as I write this, I KNOW I will never finish this mini album. But, at least, I have started it!

- Diane Miller (dinny)

Way Cool Stuff Digital Scrapbooking Product Review: ScrapSimple Photo Templates

ScrapSimple Photo Templates are an easy and fun way to add texture and dimension to your layouts. They are similar to ScrapSimple Paper Templates, but are actual photo images.

I especially like to combine ScrapSimple Photo Templates with digital scrapbooking papers and my own photos to create unique backgrounds. For my layout, I will create a background with Valerie Randall’s ScrapSimple Photo Templates: Sand 2101, Amanda McGee’s Water Papers, and my own beach photo.

I want the background to look like ocean water washing over the sand, with some frothy bubbles. The photo I took did not convey that to the degree that I desire. How do I achieve this look? I use a combination of techniques including:

  • Changing the Blend Modes of the layers
  • Changing the Opacity of the layers
  • Layering multiple ScrapSimple Photo Templates: Sand 2101
  • Layering multiple Water Papers

Way Cool Stuff Tutorial: Techniques

The trick is to experiment! The background I create is made from eight layers and playing with the Opacity and Blend Modes. I’m happy with the end result and save the paper for future use.

Add flair to your digital scrapbooking and use some ScrapSimple Photo Templates to make your vision come to fruition!
