Happy Halloween Hybrid PPA143
It's Thursday and time to play with my Pals over at Pals Paper Arts. I've been anxious to use MDS Toxic Frameable Art from the Digital Designer Template but I really didn't need another picture on my wall.
How could I scale this cute graphic down from 8-1/2" x 11" to use on a card? MDS2 makes it EASY with the new Re-Size function. I resized and printed it on Very Vanilla card Stock, then cropped it with my trimmer.
Why didn't I crop in MDS2? I wanted to use the pieces of spider web and splatters on the inside of the card to pull it all together. The best thing about using a printed graphic element instead of a stamped image? TIME! If I would have colored a stamp like this by hand, I would have easily used up an hour or more. This graphic comes pre-colored and ready to print.
I purposely left the edges of the rosette a little ragged and scrunched the scallop circle a little bit.
There you have it. Give "Hybrid" card making a try. Click on the Nuts & Bolts graphic for a downloadable PDF of supplies. Then, head on over to Pals Paper Arts and play along with us.
Don't be scared….
… give Hybrid a try!
