well I would tell you all about how fat my neighbor's pretty cat has got, but I might find myself on the six o'clock news for petty slander......
great layout!

Their normal size was 14 lbs. They were tall enough to put their paws on the table - from the floor - and take a look at what 'we' were having for supper. He was less than a year old in this photo. He loved to play with the paper coming out of the calculator. Kinda slowed down the process, but so very cute.   |

These boys were from a Calico mom - two 'butterscotch" and one black was the whole litter because they were large even at birth -- Since they were males, they didn't have the distinct coloring you think of when you think Calico - only females have that coloring Of these two, one had gold eyes and the other green - otherwise, the color pattern looked pretty similar. Color determination in Calicos
I'm sure I used a template, but I don't know who's and I don't know whose kit this is
It may be I created these papers because I found different layers added to create texture
And I see brush strokes to create patterns on plain color
The background? I experimented with pattern creation in those days, so maybe this is all my work
and I used no kit at all.
Although the layout was made when they were 5, the Cats were probably less than 3 years old judging from that chair

Wow Janice, you have been scrapping for a long time, no wonder you're so good at it. Lovely to have these beautiful memories of these fluffy boys.

I started with digital greeting cards using Word - probably early 2000's - using photos and text -- bought software for card making which contained graphics, but then I wanted even more graphics and fell into scrapbooking because scrapbooking sites are where you find cute graphics. Tried my hand at making a layout - so I could participate in a scrapbooking site - and the rest is, as we say, history. Started with scrapbooking software, then, Microsoft was giving out Picture It in packages of printer card stock (Picture It was photo manipulation software trying to compete with Photoshop - it morphed into Digital Image Suite and it was pretty good) but when Microsoft stopped supporting Image Suite, I moved on to Photoshop Elements - 2004. First site I remember joining was Digital Scrapper in 2006 (although it was called something else at the beginning). And, of course, I have some scrapbook pages about my journey...layouts created in 2008 for a biography on Digital Scrapper
took photos of software boxes, scanned in disks, pulled my first card attempts from the files... |
