Summer Story

  Time for a new challenge at The Outlawz Paper à la Mode and the theme is Every Summer Has a Story!  

...and does this digital layout ever have  story!  hahaha

The horses thought we were crazy using their trough as a pool on a hot afternoon, but when the temps soar and little ones are hot "ya' gotta' do what ya' gotta' do!"

*   *   *

I designed this scrapbook page using fun papers and elements from our sponsor Kate Hadfield!  For a list of the different pieces I used, please see the material list!

I don't have any fancy equipment or programs for digital creating; I simply used my notes program free with my Mac.  I'm sure those who have and are familiar with "photoshop" type programs could really do spectacular creations with these fun papers and extras!  But I was out to prove you can have fun and come up with something special on a free program with very little computer creating knowledge as well!

If you are interested in dabbling, as I am, go for it!  It's very fun and not difficult!  ...and hey, it doesn't get glue, sparkles, and ink everywhere!   hahaha

  5. Oh this is such a fun page. I love the colors and the images. It is perfect for Chris' challenge at Art Journal Journey, and also for our feminine challenge at Try It On Tuesday. I really like how feminine doesn't have to be all pinks and lace on your page. Thank you for joining. hugs-Erika
