A Little Tutorial On PNG's

Your digi's come in JPEG but some come in PNG! I hear some of you saying 'WHAT IS THAT?!
That means the background is transparent! Virtually not there but it is it's just invisible. I love these because I don't have to remove the background, and usually I like how it looks with the background removed. It's computer fussy cutting without getting too fussy! LOL! 
I recently had someone telling me, I get the image and this ugly grey background.
The grey means it's transparent. If you preview your watermarks, you'll see grey around them. Your saying let's get on with it, aren't you?!
I'm using Lacy Sunshine's image Hannah (found here)
Heather told me PNG's are overlays (Perfect word) 
A PNG can be overlaid on colored CS but if you have digital software you can make your own background.
COOL HUH!!! Give it a try!  
Print it and color it!
Colored mine with prisma colored pencils and I love my digital software from Stampin' Up, MDS2

A Sneak Peak!



Hello and good morning friends!! So, can you even believe that it is SEPT already?? All the kid's are back in school and that means more crafty time for us!! I know over the summer months a lot of us either lose our mojo or just don't have time. For me, it's a little of both. Summer seems so short here in Ontario that we're outside enjoying every day that we can. Kayaking, swimming, lounging, outdoor games and just family time by the pool - that's my summer. We've decided that for the whole month of September, each challenge is 'Anything Goes'! We want to help you get that mojo back in full force and encourage you to try out the digital world. So be sure to join us tmw with our first challenge of September!! You still have time to enter our Alphabet challenge if you like. 

Here's some inspiration from one of our readers, Sonia, who has her mojo back!! 



Thanks for joining us, Sonia! This is awesome and love all the colors!
