3T's Tuesday with Paula Gilarde!

Good morning!  Today is "hybrid Tuesday" with Paula Gilarde (3rd Tuesday of every month if you are wondering!!).  As always Paula shares some great tips for incorporating digital elements to your traditional scrapbook page.  Best part, Paula always shares a great layout too!

"We've all used a computer to type up our journaling - right? Easy peasy. How about using digital labels or journaling spots? Have you tried that? There's tons of them out right now -- you can even find some for free!

 
Supplies: Jillibean Soup Kraft Soup Staples white macaroni; Jillibean Soup Patterned Paper: Egg Drop Soup/egg soup; Jillibean Soup Cool Beans: brown; Jillibean Soup Bean Stalks: pigs ribbon; Core'dinations cardstock, digital cluster frame by Katie Pertiet (Designer Digitals), digital tag from Spring Celebrations Element Pack by Ali Edwards (Designer Digitals).

Here's how I did it:

1. I created a new 8.5x11 file in PSE - ctrl-N, preset: "letter" (8.5x11).

2. I opened the tag .png file in PSE and dragged it onto my canvas using the move tool.

3. Using the Horizontal text tool I drew a text box inside the label, and typed my text.

4. Print out your label on patterned paper, card stock or photo paper, cut it out and place on your layout.

Try it out and see how easy it is to do!"
