My son  is dressing for the job fair today. He really wants one of the school positions and to be on student council next year. He came out with this outfit to wear and Dad is helping him with his tie. Although Mom redid it.  Haha. I am bringing extra clothes and waiting til the job fair ends so he can change and hit the playground. He is nervous and excited this morning and hopeful. I am proud. Very proud. Love my life.

August 2012 Grab Bag layouts

August 7, 2012 By Chris Durnan

Chris and members of the More team at Visual Designs by Chris have a wonderful Grab Bag available this month for the great price of $7.00US .


Click on the preview to take you to the Store for this great deal. 

As a member of Chris’s CT I have the privilege of working with her fantastic personal cutter files (KNK Zing   and Maxx, Cricut, Silhouette, etc) only I work with them digitally. This way I get to combine my digital scrap-booking work with personal cutter files which I can use digitally as well or mix up the two for hybrid projects. In this instance I took all of the files Chris sent me and used them digitally on my pages. I add textures and styles to the cutter files to give them added dimension, and they work perfectly.

These files are all in this months Grab Bag, so don’t miss it! These are just a small sampling of the files the Bag contains. Plus, there is an Early Bird file available for quick purchases, but only for a short time.

Firstly I used CD00934 – Autumn. My favourite time of the year. The Word Art is actually a personal cutter file that I have added textures and styles to. I created this layout in Photoshop CS5.

Credits:  CD00934 – Autumn; cshneider-seq5to8S2-pg2;   wlop – Vivaldi; APD_Mystic Springs; aprilisa_Built Boy Tough; armina – April; BellaGypsy – GoOutside.
Second layout uses CD00935-Happy Halloween. In this layout the title “Happy Halloween”, the Witch and the Moon are the personal cutter files. Once again I have played with them in PSCS5 and this is the result.
Credits: Shappy Princess-Holiday Sampler-Halloween; image from Internet; CD00935-Happy Halloween. 
My third layout uses CD00936 – Got Mud. The title and the ATV Quad bike are the personal cutter files in this layout. As we don’t have a quad bike, the pictures for this layout came from the internet.
Credits: cap_goteam_template2; CD00936 – Got Mud; GDS_Collab_Jun12_Mr Adventurous.
My last layout uses CD00938 – Fish Fish. My hubby and my eldest love fishing, actually the youngest likes fishing too, it just isn’t always practical to take him along for a day long trip. The “chipboard” boy holding his catch and the title are the personal cutter files on this layout. They look great don’t they!

Credits: CD00938 – Fish Fish; GDS – Collab-0609_Catch Of The Day; cap_KeepItEven_Template 3

As you can see, personal cutter file description doesn’t preclude you from using your files digitally if you wish. Sometimes, you just want to put a layout together quickly and not have to get out the card, paper and so on. Digi is sometimes the better way to go…. but unlike digital scrapbooking files, you always have the option of cutting them out on your personal cutter as well!!

Have a wonderful day wherever you are! Cheers, caz
