Example of Using Free Graphics To Make Your Own Card

Good morning,

I recently had a birthday card to make for a co-worker, and as I always do, I used my own free graphics. People appreciate them because I took the time to create them myself.

This first picture is the card front. You might notice Trimesa, the character, who is being offered with many expressions over at Easy As Pie Daily Graphics.

This picture above, shows a side view and and the inside view.

The sideview shows that Trimesa is put on a baked clay disk to add dimension to the front of the card. This can be done when you are hand-delivering your card. It would cost you extra to mail it.

Inside are more free graphics.


This next above picture is another card to just hold the necklace I created for the birthday girl. Again, I used Trimesa on it, and a tangled-type frame decoration.

The necklace is on a FIMO white effects base. Although it looks a little yellow here, it is white. It has specks of glitter already in the clay, and I might have added glitter glue as a top coat as well.

The little flower is stuck on the top of the tangled card.

The necklace is on a silkie.


This last picture shows Trimesa off to the side. As you can see, I leave a little white around her when I cut her out. This keeps her definition so I don't thin or cut any of those lines away.

This shows the necklace upclose a little bit.

Graphics print nicely on card stock or glossy photo paper.

If you'd like to create your own free cards, just adding the small cost of your own supplies, then head on over to Easy As Pie Daily Graphics, and check out ALL of the free graphics currently up. I will leave them up for as long as possible, but eventually, some of the older ones will come down, to make way for the newer ones.

If you have them already on your own computer, they're ready for use when you need them. Once I take them down ... they're gone. So pick them up, and get creating!

Hope you enjoyed this example of using EAPDG's free graphics to make your own cards.

Have a really fantastic, Sunday ... because Monday is just around the corner!

Enjoy!

Fantasy Graphics-TimberToes Character

Good morning!

One of my favorite things to do in my creations is create little fantasy creatures. This one was created this morning ... and his name is TimberToes.

I put him in above a box, so the free graphic can be used with any title, quote, picture, etc. that you might want. Color it in. When I use it, it will have a caption something like, "You are so unique!" or "A New Look!", etc.

I've made a bunch of the fanciful creatures over the last two days. I've created Gubby, and also one called TriMesa. She has numerous looks for for eyes, her mouth, and her hats.

Look for these free graphics to be posted around the end of the month.

Till then, keep doodling!

I will.

Flower Swirl and Just 4 You Button/Free Graphics

Good morning,

Featuring two of the several jpgs offered today at Easy As Pie Daily Graphics. This is a flower swirl deco and a button for "Just 4 You"; two scrapping accessories that you can pick up free right now. It is featured for 1/17, although I have all next week up through Friday.

Remember to go check it out!

Cjs Clay And Art Scraps blogspot has a fantastic little sculpey faced flower, featuring the sculpey face. Check it out today!

Reading my Woman's World from 1/9/12, I found it interesting, yet NOT surprising that black is the color to help you lose weight. Stems from a view of spoilage and danger when viewing it ... at least in food. Can you imagine wanting to eat something this color? Not me.

Well. Maybe licorice. I like licorice.

Hope you have a fantastic day!

Free graphic: A Woodsy Flower

Good morning,

One of the three free items at http://www.easyaspiedailygraphics.com today, is this woodsy flower.

There are also two frames today.

Let me encourage you to take a look at today's http://cjsclayandartscraps.blogspot.com for a fantastic blending of my two hobbies: clay sculpturing and my art scraps. While the picture is not for free use, I think you will find it very exciting.

I hope you have a wonderful Saturday.

I read in my Woman's World a fascinating fact about black and green tea yesterday. Both are great for building your bones; especially the spine. Now that's wonderful news for me! I'll be drinking a lot more tea!

By the way, we had our first snow in Columbus yesterday, and with a little ice. I had a day off available, so I put in for it Thursday. I spent Friday getting this next week's graphics up over at Easy As Pie.

Monday is Martin Luther King Day, so I have a holiday. Tuesday is my "work from home day", so I don't have to head back out on the roads for work until Wednesday. I just love that!

Enjoy!
