A Bit of a Change...!

You may notice, I've started to replace the small image and watermark with a coloured image as I don't think the watermark was working - too easy to clean off and I think you get a better idea of the image when it's coloured - a bit like the rubber stamps with the image on the wooden handle!
Hope you like this way of displaying my images.

Instructions for watermarks

It's in a .png format. Take care not to re-save it as a jpg (very easily done!)as it will no longer be transparent.

Save it to a convenient location, like your desktop or a file in your 'photos' folder.

Take your photo and save it.

Open it in your graphics program..

Open watermark.

Click 'copy' on watermark and MINIMIZE or CLOSE watermark.

Click on photo and 'paste' . You watermark will appear in the centre of your photo (and possibly the wrong size too as I make them big for a good clean resolution when reduced).

Use your 'move' tool to move it to where you want. On my program the same tool can alter size too.

Once happy with the watermark's size/position, 'save' photo with a title and in a place you will find it again.

An exciting new collaboration!

Over the past few days I've been in discussion with a talented designer from Crafts-U-Print called Carol Smith.


Carol contacted me with come very complimentary comments on my digis and asked if I would allow the use of some of them on her super card-toppers, which she sells on Crafts-U-Print.


I confess to being a little sceptical at first as, really, I could do as much myself, had I the mind to, and wouldn't need to share any (very small it must be said!)  profit but as I looked at her pages on CUP I became convinced that I should go for it.   I did discuss it with a few of my friends, hobbyists and professional, and ended up more confusticated than before! 


So, in the end I took the bull by the horns and trusted my instinct that Carol is the lovely lady she appears to me to be.   I think it will possibly share my images to a wider audience and that thought makes me happy!


Here is her first creation with my image of my Very Cheeky Snowman!


Isn't that fab?


Carol has, very kindly, sent me the sheet so I was able to make up one of the possible designs with it.



The sheets Carol makes are already coloured in and come with the background scene you see here (plus others) and they come with the separate sections so you can easily decoupage them.


Here's a low-res image so you can see the layout (but thieves can't use it as it will pixillate as soon as you enlarge it). Carol's are much higher res and are a clean print.



Carol's toppers are great fun and a real boon to those with little time to spare or not confident in their colouring and they're very inexpensive!

Don't forget, if you like Cheeky, only I have the digi-stamps and he's over here at  Eiglassing! in the Christmas collection.  Just e-mail me and a download code will be sent!

New digi..... Calvin & Neo

...is now under the 'Peeps!' tab - as teenagers they aren't really children and I have no more pages I can make!
I'll also put them under the 'Male' tab so they can be found there too.


They look like they're having a laugh, don't they?

Paper Kits

I have most of my digital paperkit samples on now, under the 'Paper Kits' tab but still not put out  buy now buttons - I really must find some time to do that!
In the meantime, please just e-mail me at eiglas@eiglas.co.uk and we can take it from there!

My digistamps are nearly all up ...but then they never will be ALL up because as I'm uploading them, I'm drawing more and as I'm drawing them, I'm getting ideas for the next one! Ad infinitum! LOL!

My 'Roseheart' papers, have proved very popular 'per se' but I still believe them to be too expensive because I'm having them printed at a local printer so cannot hope to compete with commercial manufacturers, who have runs of many thousands, making it sooo much cheaper.

I can have any of my designs made up, but they're all going to be in the region of £1.00 per sheet, so, sadly, I'm not going to market them unless especially asked for them.

I need extra page tabs really but this blog layout doesn't allow more.
Perhaps I'll start a 'Latest Release' page right here!

Keep looking!

New Look!

AS you can probably see, my shop design is in a state of flux! LOL!
I've had peeps asking me for an easy way to purchase these digis so I finally got my thinking cap on and worked out how to make a PayPal button!


I've also organized my images into categories in the tabs at the top of the page so you can find the ones you're looking for more easily.


I really hope this makes this lickle emporium pleasanter and more easily navigated!
