I Tried Something New!



 Time for a new challenge at The Outlawz Anything Goes in a Card Free Zone and the optional theme is... Try Something New!  

I created a paper collection; this is very new for me.  I'm calling this particular collection "Tidings of Joy" by ScrappyPapers and I'm giving it away to the winner over at Anything Goes in a Card Free Zone.  Come try something new and play along for a chance to win!

Catch the video below to see how I used the papers on the layout above.  


I will be showing a 2nd layout with this same paper on the evening of January 6; I invite you back to see that one, also.

Material List:

Vintage Photo circa 1970
Papers, Tags, and Burlap Ribbon from ScrappyPapers (These papers/ephemera are digitally created in Canva, Cricut Design Space, PhotoScape.  I did not use AI; however some images included may have been created in that manner prior to my obtaining them.)  
Digital Elements from Canva (Circle, Font) Free
Digital Elements from Creative Fabrica:  Christmas Wreath https://tinyurl.com/3x95p2d6
Digital Elements from RawPixel: Gold Star https://tinyurl.com/mr3jewdp
Programs:  Canva and PhotoScape X

If you are interested in learning Canva techniques, I recommend the videos by Sande Woodson!  Here's a link to her channel.
She is quite knowledgeable about this technology/crafting medium!

 Sharing with these challenges:  

CRAFT:  New/AG
My Time to Craft:  New ~ I used new papers
Everybody Art Challenge:  W for Wreathe, Christmas
The Holly and Ivy:  AG Christmas 
The Outlawz Sketch:  Circle and Cute
Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round:  The Christmas Song
I was inspired by these words ~
"Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way"
