Red Roses - Sunday Postcard Art

 

This week's Challenge at Sunday Postcard Art is, "Red Roses."

I immediately thought of a graphic I downloaded free from DigitalScrapbook.com.  In fact, many of the elements in my artwork this week came from this website.  I'm finding so many beautiful elements there - you can download five free graphics each day, but I also enjoy just purusing the graphics in the gallery, and marking "Heart this" or "Wish List." 

When I go back looking for something in particiular, or just want to snag my five free downloads for the day, I already have them in my Account Settings and I pick my five favorites for the day.  Tip:  If you do this, be aware that if you leave a comment for the designer, your freebies for the day go up by one.  And I always start with Wish List, and after downloading the element, the Wish List goes away, and I Heart the item.  There are so many elements that have been up for months or years with lots of activity and downloads, but very few people take the time to thank the designer with a Heart and/or Comment.  It seems like that's the least we can do for the time and creativity the artist put into her work.  

Anyway, this is truly a site that is, per Marisa Lerin, the owner of the site: a digital scrapbooking community designed to help you unleash your creativity. You can upgrade for unlimited downloads, and the cost per month is different for a personal or commercial license.  There are also kits that are for sale.  If you go to the site, look around and you'll find what works for you.  

I won't do a lengthy plug again, just wanted you to be aware of this website.  I'm not connected to the site in any way, except as a greatful downloader.  There are also tutorials available, and I'd love to watch some of them and start designing my own free graphics to upload to this site!  

There is a box in the right top corner that's a link to the site if you want to check it out.

To give credit to the designer who was the catalyst for this artwork, Red Roses, her name is Lisel Rice, click on her name to go to where the "rose on denim" jpg is located.

I had so much fun making this piece of digital art, I have quite a backlog of elements, and it was nice to have a bunch of new items to choose from, too!

Thanks for stopping by.  Until next time...
