    MONTHLY FREEBIE
    And now for everyone's favorite – THE MONTHLY FREEBIE, generously supplied by our "very own" Steve Russell!

    Here's what "sensational Steve" has to say about his signature style (whew! that's a lot of "s"-s!):

    "My niche is creating close-to-photo-realistic elements "with a twist" using Adobe Photoshop. I also to build templates and kits using "out-of-the-box" thinking, yet are very familiar to everyone. There's always another idea in the pipe!"

    And here's how Steve describes the great mini-kit he's sharing with you here, for free!:

    "Autumn Leaves contains background papers, leaf elements, twigs, buttons, titles, swatches and more. Individual elements in .PNG format. Swatches in .JPG format. These are extremely detailed pieces great for use in any size scrapbook page."

    Love the mini-kit and want to see more? Below are links to Steve's various autumn-themed kits that go together oh-so-well!

                      Thanks for the freebie and contest

                      Thanks Steve for the freebie.

                      I was going to upload a contest page but I can't figure out how and/or where. Is there a link somewhere I am missing.

                      Thanks

                        I figured out how/where to upload all by myself. Yippee...starting to make some sense to all of this.

                        My page is not 12 x 12. Does that matter for the contest?

                          Celebrate Good Times

                          My parents celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. Although they were married 54 years before Dad passed away, they were high school sweethearts for years, too. Mom's school had been closed and Dad and a few other older boys were watching the new girls get off the bus. He saw her and the rest is history. Dad said he asked her over and over if he could carry her books before one day she finally handed them over and he knew he'd never give her up.

                          See gallery for credits.

                            Here goes nothin'...

                            I designed this one on my own in PSE6. It's the first thing I've designed bigger than a checkmark. Somewhat simple, hopefully elegant, much like the wedding it portrays.

                            When our daughter got married, it was easily one of the most gorgeous weddings ever seen in our little town. Jessica was asked for quite awhile after that to help other young ladies with their weddings for the simple fact that hers was so beautiful.



                            Thanks for looking!
