Grungy Sentiments

These Grungy Sentiment Sets are the latest release from Pink Gem Designs

They come as 8 separate png file in each set

Just copy and paste them into a Microsoft Office Publisher Document or any graphics programme, resize save to jpg and print :)

Because the backgrounds are totally see through you can place them over your favorite paper or fill a square with colour and place the png in front to have your sentiment in the colour/pattern of your choice :)

You can find them here

WORKING WITH WHITE PNG FILES

 Sometimes people email me after they have bought the white png files to say there is nothing showing on screen when they open the files or they are printing blank.

This is because the words are white the same colour as your background and also the background is totally see through......

.......so you have to put a background behind the png file in order to be able to print the white words

Here is something I did earlier in Microsoft Office Publisher but you can use any graphic software that you are familiar with

You could copy  and paste some patterned digital paper into the document or make a coloured square like me.

Use the Rectangle tool to draw the square and click the paint bucket symbol above

You can resize by dragging the corner handles

Next copy your png file and paste it into the document and move it in front of the square

Again you can drag the corner handles and make it the size you want.

Now you are ready to print so you need to save the image as a jpg to you desktop like this

Of course you can add more designs to your sheet and print a lot of sentiments at once especially if you make them smaller :)

So there you go it's easy peasy to print white sentiments....and it's just the same principal to add a watermark  to your photographs too!

New Release Memory Box Dies......

Monster Fun!

Afternoon everyone.......the sun is shining and it is beginning to feel like spring at last ;)

I have been thinking about Fathers Day on June 16th and came up with these cute Monsters for the men in your life

Some of you may remember 'Beer Monster' as a polymer stamp.....well he is now available as a digi!

You can find 'Beer Monster' & 'Golf Monster' here

Both come with a bonus sentiment too

Pirate Chloe

As soon as Chloe saw her brother Andy dressed as a pirate she wanted to dress up too!

You can find her here

As usual the digis come in both blackline  (which you can colour yourself) and pre coloured files

Have Fun! :)

Happy Birthday Chloe

It's my gorgeous grandaughters 13th birthday on Easter Monday and I have made her this birthday card using 'Emma in Flower Jeans' digi and some of my favorite Memory Box dies.

I have coloured the image with Distress Markers

I have sploshed it with crackle paint and added lots of Glamour Dust so very sparkly but this doesn't show so much in the photos
