Thanks so much, Tamera. I forgot to add that I applied ink and a texture. :)

That does sound like fun. I love the set up and the effects you have used. I am glad to see you are finding things and getting around out there.

Under your menu system you'll see a little wrench, go there and you'll find the option called format, make sure you've downloaded everything first :)

Shelly, Great find and capture first off. When I make my cards I have used Microsoft Publisher, selected a card from their menu, on page one inserted it and just drawn in the dimentions of the capture to fit the card (horizontal or vertical format). It has worked for me so far with no distortion or change in perspective.
I've beem busy lately and glad to get back. Emile

7/31/2006 6:15:17 PM

Definitely cool color and effects.

7/31/2006 7:50:45 PM
