Details about this month's freebie and challenge by Michelle McCoy below!
The Challenge: Making "Stickers" with Titles!
Instructions:
*Download my freebie kit.
*Use one of the papers in the download on your layout.
*Add a title on your page making it look like a sticker. You can do this by adding a Caption (Object > Caption), and clicking on the Advanced tab in the Caption Properties box. Here you can adjust the outline. By making the outline white and very large (I adjusted the outline size to 30.9) your caption looks like a sticker. Here is a visual aid to help!:
*Bring in another background from the my mini kit into your work space as a Paper Scrap or a Photo.
* Change colors if needed
* Now, change the shape from your shapes folder using these instructions:
*You can use anything else on your page to finish it up.
*Upload your page to the gallery, then here in the post.
* Thank you for playing!!!

NOTE: This month's freebie is bundled up as a .zip file. Simply download and save the .zip file. Then, you can extract the images and easily "drag and drop" them onto your Scrapbook MAX! pages!
