Welcome to the
Countdown to Christmas Blog Hop!
I'm so excited to share with you my projects made with Lori Whitlock's new Christmas This and That Collection she designed for Echo Park, you can can find it here at Jessica Sprague.
The great thing about digital design is that you can work in so many different styles. The first one is a fantasy style with my sweet DD in a snow globe and the second one is a realistic painters tray, this one could easily be used as a hybrid design that could be cut with a Silhouette Cameo.

Your projects are amazing Lisa! I love all the layering and details! There is so much to take in and appreciate! :)
ReplyDeleteThat tray is FA-BOU-LOUS! You've added so many cute little details!
ReplyDeleteLisa, this project is so beautiful! Love the painters tray idea! ;-)
ReplyDeleteFab projects, Lisa. A very textural overall effect.
ReplyDeleteTine (proud owner of a Cameo & user of PaintShopPro(but an oldish version) :)
I love that snow globe...wow! And the printer's tray is so warm and welcoming. I do have 2 die cutting machines...a Cuttlebug and a Silhouette. I do not have a Photoshop type program, but am looking into it. Learning how to use it really intimidates me.
ReplyDeleteLove what you did here, Lisa! You rocked it! I have a Cricut, Cuttlebug and Silhouette and I use Photoshop, but only when I can't use Inkscape for what I'm trying to do. Just more of a vector gal I suppose. Keep up the great work and congrats on getting moved up to the "majors"!
ReplyDeleteHi there, I have a cricut and a sizzix big shot and I use Photoshop. Your projects are are amazing! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have a Cricut and use Photoshop CS6.
ReplyDeleteHi, I have a Silhouette Cameo and a Cuttlebug and I use Photoshop CS6. I am very very new to all of this but I've been doing digital drawing and painting in Photoshop for about 5 years, as well as photography post processing. I practically live in Photoshop.
ReplyDeleteQuestion #1 Do you own a die cutting machine and which one is it? I have Silhouette Cameo
ReplyDeleteQuestion #2 Do you use Photoshop or similar like Elements? I have PSE 11
I have a Silhouette Cameo and I use PSE. Love your painter's tray.
ReplyDeleteQuestion #1 Do you own a die cutting machine and which one is it?
ReplyDeleteI have a Cricut, but have only ever used cartridges with it.
Question #2 Do you use Photoshop or similar like Elements?
I use PSE 10!
I have the Cameo
ReplyDeleteI use photoshopCS

I own a Silhouette Cameo (love it) and I use PSE10 and use it all the time. I love creating Printer's tray so love your ideas.
ReplyDeleteWowza! Sure save the best for last (wink. wink) I do have an old, but very much loved Silhouette. I also have PS @ work and PSE @ home.
ReplyDeleteI have a Cuttlebug and a Silhouette Cameo - both in use EVERYDAY. I havn't got Photo Shop yet but I will :-) Love your project :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your painters tray. I have a Silhouette Cameo and a Cricut. I don't have any photo software. gasp!
ReplyDeleteThat painters tray is incredible, so striking and wonderful to look at as a whole and interesting to explore segment by segment.
ReplyDeleteI have a Silhouette Cameo and have just started using Elements but need lots of help on the Elements side of it :o)

Wow! That is beautiful, so much to take in. I have a cameo and am a photoshop junkie :)
ReplyDeleteI have a Silhouette Cameo, Photoshop CS5 and just picked PSE 11.
ReplyDeleteAmazing project!
ReplyDeleteI just got the silhouette. Still learning. I have photoshop, but don't use it much.
ReplyDeleteGreat projects.
Yes, Sizzix, no on the Photoshop
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage look of your pieces!
ReplyDeleteI have a Silhouette Cameo and have bought PSE, but its been sitting in its box for a couple of months because I'm a little daunted by it - have to just get stuck in one day!
Lisa, your digital projects are great - love all of the details! I use my Cricut with SCAL for now, someday I will get an Eclips or Cameo. Also, I love Photoshop! I use it all the time! I am a new follower!
ReplyDeleteWow! Such detail! Thanks for sharing your great ideas! I have a Silhouette Cameo and use Elements sometimes. Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI need some pointers from you!!! beautiful as usual!
ReplyDeleteI have a Cameo which I just got about a month ago. I do not use Photoshop, I have been using Picasa to edit my photos and haven't used a lot of digital elements.
ReplyDeleteI have a Silhouette SD and Cameo...and a Big Shot. I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 and bought the book, "Classroom in a Book" (with CD), but I haven't had a chance to work on it. The PE7 came with my Bamboo tablet. If I work with digital designs it's usually with Jasc's Paint Shop Pro 7 which is an OLD version. I'm comfortable with that version.
ReplyDeleteI ♥ your tray layout!!
Your pages always amaze me, Lisa! I'm sure you know my answer to your questions, but I'll answer anyway. I've got a Silhouette Cameo (Best.Machine.Ever.) and have been using PSE for years. I have to wait until Christmas for PSE11, but I can be patient... ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea.
ReplyDeleteI have the original, sd and cameo along with the cricut expression.
I don't have photoshop yet. Still debating on what to buy. lol
I use a Cameo as well as the Expression. I love them both - because I have the best of everything! hee, hee.
ReplyDeleteI use Photoshop Elements. I am still a baby in the digital world. I hope to get better in the coming year.
THANKS for the give-away.
I have a Pazzles, Cricut Expression, Expression 2, Imagine, Mini, Cake, & Imagine. I use Photoshop. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove your projects! You really did an amazing job with the dreamy LO and the shadow box is so fun! I love doing hybrid projects and absolutely love Lori's files! Thanks so much for sharing!!! I have a Cricut Expression and I use Photoshop Elements.
ReplyDeleteOh my your projects are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteBesides manual die cutters I own a Cricut. I am not computer proficient so I don't know the answer to the second question.

1. Silhouette Cameo
ReplyDelete2. Elements 10
And I love that painter's tray!!
Your digital images are amazing! I can't believe how realistic they are.
ReplyDeleteSilhouette SD but the Cameo's on my Christmas wish list! I also use photoshop.
ReplyDeleteI am amazed by your printer's tray. So beautiful. I have a Cricut Expression, a Big Shot, a Revolution and hope to get a Boss Kut Gazelle or Silhoutte Cameo soon. I use PSE 10 and just bought PSE 11 today at Costco for a great price with my coupon!
ReplyDeleteI have loved my Cameo for almost a year now. Although I don't do any digi-scrapping (for now), I love using Lori's shapes and her paper designs. Learning Photoshop is on my list of things to do once the Christmas chaos dies down.
ReplyDeleteI <3 both of your designs!! That fantasy style LO is stunning!
ReplyDeleteI have had my cameo for a couple months now, and can't imagine my paper crafting life without it now! I mainly use the Silhouette Designer Edition for all of my cutting needs - haven't tried anything like Photoshop yet. Thanks for the inspiration and the fun blog hop!
ReplyDeleteI have a big kick and a Silhouette SD - lately both have been gathering dust while I have a search party out looking for my mojo.
ReplyDeleteI have Photoshop Elements 10, which I am just learning to use and bought for digital scrapping and to make my photos look nicer. I also have a program that I am still figuring out the is specifically for digital scrapping called Craft Artist 2 wow some of the people on a group I am in have done some awesome layouts with it.
Wow...both projects are absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteQuestion #1---yes, I have the Silhouette SD. An upgrade 2 yrs ago from the original Silhouette.
Question #2---yes, I have PSE 10. I use it primarily for photo editing but have dabbled just a bit in digi scrapbooking.
Have a glorious holiday and thanks for sharing your projects with us!
I have a silhouette Cameo and use PSE9. I am still in the learning curve on PSE but am very comfortable with my Cameo, which I love!!! Love your tray and thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteLove those projects!! To answer your questions- I have a Silhouette Cameo and a Cricut Expression. I have PSE 10,but am still learning at it. Love Lori's designs!!
ReplyDeleteStunning layout!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I have a Cameo that I use almost every day. I have photo shop but it's not fully installed so I haven't been using it. patient_pink_panther(@)yahoo(.)com
ReplyDeleteI have a cricut expression. My hubby uses photo shop. I've never played with it.
