What I've found in making ATC's is the resizing when using scrapbook kit items meant for 3600x3600 projects is kinda difficult. I found it's easier to downsize item prior to placing on your ATC I made the word art: In order to get the haunted house to fall where I wanted it to - within the lettering - I divided the word into two parts so each part can be maneuvered by itself - deleting the L's to make room for the house Two layers of text - one black/one yellow - one layer moved slightly to the side - use your arrow keys with the move tool for more control Font is "Party LET Plain" - it's free The bats - except for the one with the glowing eyes (which I changed the color on to match the other graphic) - is one graphic. I moved it around to get the best position, then erased the bats that interfered with my design I don't know if it's true for everyone, but when I use "save for web" to downsize ATC before posting, after posting, when you click on the ATC to go to imgbb to get a better look at what you have uploaded, it isn't there -- or I'm doing something wrong A little early for Halloween, but...

This has nothing to do with resizing using Save for Web (or using Image>Resize). It has to do with how imgbb works. It all depends on the pixel dimensions of the image being uploaded. When we upload a small-size image, imgbb does not generate a thumbnail. When we upload a large-size image, imgbb generates a thumbnail. Then, we click on it to see the larger size.

Very clever, love the lettering effect and your use of the house features, thanks for providing your methods too. I really admire how you problem solve.

Thank you Jacki. I like to tell people how I do things to encourage them to try it on their own. It's fun to learn new techniques.

So pretty, Lillias. I like the sketch effect on the lilacs. I tried another one. The bird is from a kit by Katie Pertiet Garden Trails collection. Notes from pngtree Saw the saying on a bench while at the park yesterday. Used the oil painting feature in PSCC at the end.

Saw the saying on a bench while at the park yesterday. Nicely composed card Helen and I like that saying.

Those are both very pretty. Although it seems the design for ATC’s can be anything, These two designs are what I think of when I hear ATC

I love your lilacs Lillias, and the sketch effect is perfect. Alas I have managed to send my lilac tree to the compost, so it was nice to see your image. Helen, your art card is perfect, your park benches seem to offer a lot more than just a seat.

I had a photo of Miss Purple scratching around in the nasturtiums, and the bee was inspired by a Pinterest website? The background for the bee I added later from DesignCuts.

Jacki, the fact that you paint your subjects makes youor cards very special....Love them! The size of the cards makes it a bit easier to fill, perfect for my amateur sketches.
