1st Halloween & a tree

Details are here.

Here's another page I created for Little Dreamer. I'm having SO much fun with their kits. I love the challenge of using only their products to create a page. I don't know how to describe it, but it's really been great for me because it gives me some boundaries to work within. I don't have to dart around all of my digital folders trying to figure out what will look best. I just stay right inside my LD dreamland and I'm all set.

As I said in the description on Little Dreamer's gallery, I'm not a huge fan of Halloween, but I love these pictures and the wonderful memories that accompany them. Fall is my favorite time of year and thinking back on Halloween makes me smile. And it was SO FUN creating a page with childhood photos! And I just love these colors together!




And this, my friends, is the beginning of my designing career. Haha! (the very, very beginning) I spent hours today working in Illustrator and out popped this design (yeah right...). It was frustrating at times, but by golly, when I finally figured out some things, I was jumping for joy! And yes, I already have a name picked out for my design work. Someday...someday... I have SO much to learn. And I thought Photoshop was huge...

LOVE your illustration! Very nice. I too am looking forward to trying a new venture. I already have the software knowledge under my belt. Just got to get the business side down now. I look forward to following your adventure into the unknown. Maybe we will be on similar paths. ;o)
