We all love to share on this MB, and I thought I would share a product/site that I dearly love and use quite often when making fun things for Christmas; or anything to do with children. There are things on here for everyone and any interest.
What is it? It's clipart to the extreme. They call it 'clipart' I think for lack of a more suitable name. Once you get there and finally check out what it is, and what you can do with it, you'll thank me.
The FREE browser download you get when you join, becomes your giant file folder on your computer. Everytime you purchase a set, you download it and it automatically goes to your free browser. Open a Word document (I actually prefer Microsoft Publisher - if any of you have Microsoft Office - it's IN there.) you click and drag one of your images from your new browser into an open document, and you can do amazing things with it. Go to Community, Albums and Pictures and check out my Sugar and Spice baby album. The artwork throughout the album is from PcCrafters. Better known as "Hugware". You can use this art as beautifully as it's hand painted by the artist, or you can switch modes within your browser to just print out a sketch and color it yourself - very much like a stamp. You can manipulate it to any size you would like.
The only thing you cannot do with Hugware is duplicate it to re-manufacture and sell as your own art. Otherwise, you are free to use it in anyway you wish. For $4.95, you'll get at least 20-30 images in that file, as well as paper backgrounds to use if you wish. Click one you like, then click on "Preview", and it will show you all the art that's contained in that particular set. The colors stay true when you print them. In my opinion, it's a papercrafters dream come true. There's nothing to 'join', it's not a kit of the month (although you can sign up for that if you wish), just sign up for their newsletter for new product alerts, and at least download your FREE browser and welcome pack that gives you a TON of artwork to get started with for FREE!!!! Gee - did I say FREE??? The download instructions are extremely simple, but if you are really technically challenged to the extreme, this might not be for you.
Check it out - it can't hurt to look, right? I have a list of my favorite artists that I tend to gravitate to, but you can also search by themes. There's also projects to do using this software. So check it out!!!! Remember - the browser download is free, and it comes pre-loaded with 50 very cute images to start. If you're a cardmaker, don't pass this up. ;)
