Why you are here...

Truthfully, you are here on this earth to praise Him. Let every thing that hath breath, praise ye the Lord. READ PSALM 150 ;)

Why are you at my blog?

Probably because I invited you and you love me, so you humored me. Or, maybe you stumbled in. However you arrived, Know that I like you and I'm glad you're here. What is it all about?

Mostly digital scrapbooking.I find that whatever I set my hand to do I usually do it with all my might. My problem is is that I set my hand on so many thiings!

Anyways, one of the two MANY things I am currently learning is how to set up a blog...

Go to Blogger.com That is easy!

Pick a name.

Not as easy...

every cute name I thought of...taken! Read earlier posts and you may see why I called it crumbdig.

WHILE digging today, I got sidetracked by a site called

www.alibony.com

(I posted one of the FREE lessons to my facebook wall).

I learned how to make a reusable photo frame but when I uploaded it, it isn't in it's layer form when I try to open it..I thought by making it a png file it would allow someone to download for their own use. If you know why this didn't work or how i can make it work, let me know in the comment section. Thanks.

I learned how to make patterns. I learned a lot. I will post a few pieces of 12x12 paper. I get impatient (to say the least). But here goes... I can only load 5, so for now, 5 it is...here is the frame that won't open in layers as I hoped.

I learned how to make this one on alibony.com It doesn't look like much I know.

But, when I open mine in PSE (PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS) it opens in layers and I can insert a photo right into it...like this...

Here is some paper...I just made patterns by making a selection(something that will look interesting repeated/edit/define pattern/make a new layer/paintbucket tool/pattern (pick my recently made pattern from the menu/ and use the paint bucket to fill in the layer.

FUN! I mean ADDICTIVE FUN!!

Oh HOW could I forget?? I learned how to make a gingham looking design...Filter/Distort/Wave option...just play with it and you will see...or go to Alibony.com for the Party lesson.

Or to my facebook because I shared that lesson on my page also...

TRY IT!

go to alibony.com for the video lesson..yep I will be learning how to do my own videos to instruct as I am being instructed..lol




I hope you will come back and bring someone who loves scrapping with you! It is going to get real busy! Real fast!
