More Flowers

Almost forgot to post this … In addition to the designer mix I told you about yesterday, I also released another pack of flowers. This time, the flowers are from my garden and are called Spring Mix because to me, spring is all about flowers. I stalk them … when I see a bud on [...]

I’ve got some more releases, but I’m only going to tell you about one today. It’s another designer mix and it’s another vintage one (as in Designer Mix – Vintage 2). Again, more things I have around the house with a ribbon rose thrown in for good measure. I do need to let you know [...]

Watercolors and Sunprints — Oh My!

jilbert — Thu, 16 May 2013 19:02:50 +0000

Just a quick post for today, but I did want to show you 2 more products I’ve released. It’s two paper packs: Sunprints 2 and Watercolors 2 (sensing a theme yet?). The full price for these is $4.00 each. Lucky for you, like my other releases, these are on sale for 40% until the end [...]

Batik Papers Tutorial and Freebies

jilbert — Tue, 14 May 2013 17:35:45 +0000

Now that I’ve gone through my original 10 products, I wanted to show how I used a couple of my products — Transparent Overlays – Batiks 1 & Brushes – Watercolor Splashes 1 — to create some Batik Papers. For the papers in the sampler, I used the distressed overlays. I created a new document [...]

Overlays – Textured and Transparent

jilbert — Tue, 14 May 2013 09:00:30 +0000

The last 2 products, out of my original 10, are overlays. The first one is a set of 6 grayscale overlays that I called Veins. These crazy things are the result of trying to find a way to imitate veined stones. They may not be perfect, but they definitely stand out … plus they’re not [...]

Paper Templates – Retro and Wallpaper

jilbert — Mon, 13 May 2013 09:00:00 +0000

When I first thought about doing digi scrap design work (as in creating kits), the toughest thing for me was creating patterned papers … in particular, papers with more than one or two colors. To help get me beyond that mental road block, I started creating layered Photoshop files with the thought that I could [...]

Watercolor Papers and Brushes

jilbert — Sun, 12 May 2013 09:00:17 +0000

While I’m primarily a mixed-media artist, my first love will always be watercolors. I can’t begin to tell you how many years I’ve spent trying to replicate the look of watercolors on the computer (ArtRage comes REAL close but still not good enough … at least so far). It was only natural that I begin [...]

Designer Mixes – Travel 1 and Vintage 1

jilbert — Sat, 11 May 2013 09:00:05 +0000

These next two products are Designer Mixes. One has a travel theme and the other a vintage theme. I’m sure many of you recognize several of the items in the travel mix as ones I used in my Southwestern Venture kit. I can’t tell you how many people commented and asked me about making them [...]
