Mini-O's

What are Mini-O's you ask?  Well, I'm glad you did!  Those designers at O'Scraps who wish to participate every month, release coordinating mini "kits" on the 4th Friday of the month (this month was a 5th Friday) at a special reduced price for a week.  The CT  is challenged to mix up the designers' portions in layouts so you will be inspired as you see how well they work together.  You have seen a couple of mine presented earlier.  Today, I have more to show you.

If you know me, you know I love photos taken from behind the subject.  I love this one!!

I used 3 designers' Mini-O's kits:
ET Designs - Welcome November Clipping Masks
Designs by Tina - October Paper Pack
Palvinka - Pumpkin:
Solid Papers
Overlays
Elements


Photo Processing: I duplicated the photo. I created the oval shape in PSE to clip the top photo to. I used one of ET Designs' clipping masks for the second photo. I changed the opacity of the clipping mask to 62% so you could see more of the paper by Designs by Tina. The rest of the elements and overlays are layered on.

Art Journaling Play Time

I did a bit of digital art journaling today.

We all live through unexpected realities.  Some of these include death, widowhood, love's second chance.  I have experienced all three of these and have hidden in plain view these three in this page.  The font I used for the hidden words is Rage Italic.....fitting, I think, for some of the steps we go through as we process some of those unexpected realities!

The kit I used from an O'Scraps designer, Lynne Anzelc, is Sunday Morning.  It is a BEAUTIFUL kit!  

 


I saw this quote on Facebook.  "You're only as pretty as you treat people."  How true that is!

I used a fun kit from O'Scraps designer, Vicki Robinson, "Time to Fly."


Are you ugly or pretty?  That is my question for you today!

I'm Back Digiscrapping!

 Well, I'm not designing and I haven't been digiscrapping for quite awhile, either!  I have wanted to, but I just kept putting it off!  Then a sweet friend of mine invited me to follow her scrapping page on Facebook and that did it!  I jumped in!  I didn't realize how much I was missing it!

I have joined O'Scraps Cheery O's, the creative team for the store at O'Scraps.  That means I will be working with challenges and working with kits from the store to promote the designers.

Here are some layouts I have created this month for myself and the challenges at O'Scraps.  The layouts are linked to the designer's store.  










I love the colors of Autumn! It is my favorite season!
I used lots of free pieces from several designers.
ETDesigns Autumn freebie
FoxySquirrel freebie butterfly
Kitty Designs Magical Moments freebie
MDGroot In the Garden paint elements




I used 3 different kits of Lynne Anzelc's:
A Scrap of Autumn[ link ]
Back to Basics[ link ]
By the Morning Light[ link ]
Font is Arial Regular








Well, there you have it!  Visit the forum at O'Scraps to find out about their challenges.  Or buy a kit or two from the shop and make some layouts, then post them in the gallery so everyone can oooh and aaah them!  Here are the various links:
