Reasons I love the idea of using digi elements on paper pages:

1) You can use them over and over again!
2) Unlike stamps, they are mess-free.
3) You can print on any paper (that will fit into your printer).
4) You can re-size them and/or re-color them.
5) You can often get digital stuff for FREE. BTW, here's a great place for freebies.
6) I love cutting the printed images out. I cut up a lot of patterned paper for paper pages, too.
7) There is so much digital stuff out there: from doodles to realistic items and everything in between.
8) You can print on transparency to make your own overlays.

dare to be remarkable



{finished this one late last night after the wee one was asleep...I used some of Audrey's word art, doodled photo corners and journal blocks. See here for full credits and links.}

more good scrappy news....
I was named Page of the Day at the Creating Keepsakes website! It was a digi page using Audrey's stuff!

and I have my fingers crossed for the Scrapologie DT. I know it will be stiff competition. Ranjini's kits are awesome and many people will be clamoring to get on her team....anyway, thought I'd throw my hat in because you never know what they're looking for!

MM Idol Season II is starting up again! Did not enter last year, but am thinking about it. Now this is one I have no shot for because I don't do a lot of altered projects (one of the requirements). We'll see.

And in Sofi news,
Sofi completed a 9-piece puzzle without any help! It's a double sided puzzle with Eric Carle's caterpillar on one side and fruit on the other. We have done the puzzle many, many times with me or Jamie helping her. But one minute I saw her playing with the puzzle pieces and the next it was all done! So proud of her!
