Old Images

Hi Everybody,

So over the weekend I have been doing some spring cleaning of my computer  and I found lots of old images that I bought or downloaded for free years ago … and I mean absolute years ago. 

I used them at the time of purchase and then, as you do with everything, I forgot all about them.

But is this not something that we are all guilty of doing and then when you have a clean up it comes as a nice  surprise to find things again.

This first one is called Bath tub and I bought this image, and many many others, from the wonderful childrens author and illustrator Maurie Manning 

Her images are delightful and available from the website ...  Mo's Digital Pencil  and of course once you have them they are yours forever. And should you forget about them over the years,  then it will be a lovely surprise for you to when you rediscover them on your PC.

This second image is called Tug Of War and this was a freebie from Kenny K again many years ago.  

His website has developed so much that I don't know if he still does digital images, and many of them are now under license. 

So just in case I am breaking some rule that I am not aware of I will not add any more KennK images to my pages.

The words on both of these cards are from different sets from Card Making Magic and I have mixed and matched them to suit the designs.

Both images have been coloured with Arteza Coloured Pencils 

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  1. Good Morning Christina. What a great surprise for you. I can't believe how we buy things and put them away and then forget about them. My sister does card crafting too ... But she buys paper pads and then she can't bear to use them... Why???... Oh she makes me laugh. They are both really lovely cards today w. Thsnkyo. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone. PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏

  3. Surprising what you find when having a tidy up, be it computer or craft room. Always plenty to find and some nice surprises and yes I'm sure we are all guilty of neglecting 'stuff'.

  14. Isn't it lovely to see old things through fresh eyes, I also have digital stamps from YEARS ago, but I still look through them and use them. I hope Kenny K digis are still OK to use, I do use them, although I don't sell my cards, so maybe I'm OK?
