Welcome to Rednesday Wednesday!
This is a weekly blog party celebrating everything red. Sunset reds to garnet reds....
tomato reds to strawberry reds...and every shade in between.
Posts can showcase vintage finds. collections, decor, fashion, designs or items you have for sale, seasonal items, recipes,etc. The connecting thread will be the color red.
With this also being Autumn and Thanksgiving the Cousins of RED are also included such as russets, red-oranges, and maroon.
but, I don't do a lot of paper craft. I do like to take vintage images and use them as patterns for my embroidery..............
A while back I had the opportunity to try a digital scrapbooking program. My Memories Suite
As I said before, I don't do scrapbooking, but I have done newsletters, ads, and graphic design layouts for business uses.
This program is wonderful with rich content, easy point and click applications, and the ability to keep it digital or print out. There are fabulous and diverse papers, sets, accessories, and pre-made pages to purchase to create layouts for everyday, holidays, and special occasions. I find that it works great for Cards, advertising, signage, and much more. My fav are the vintage inspired papers and add-ons
This is a pic of the comp screen while I created a digital composite for use on my website............
See on the side all the applications for adding content to your design!
This was last years digital Christmas card I created. I love the vintage lace and the 30's inspired paper
I've also used it to create themed title badges for linky parties I host for Etsy Cottage Style
I added text boxes with shadow to make it look like the little boy is holding a sign |
This is just a Fall collage
This collage was a bit more complicated using pics from my computer and add-ons from MyMemories,but just point and click.....easy peasy
This one was too easy. Just add text and pic...viole'
And, for my own weekly party...............................
I have even made business stationary.........................
I really do love this program, Whether you use it for it's original purpose or for desktop publishing My Memories Suite is very versatile.

So glad you are flexible in your interpretation of red - mine has a touch of mauve in it today!

Hi, Melody,
Thanks for hosting. Great designs. I'm just not craft like that.
The town is Madison, IN. I visit a friend there.
