Next I have a GREAT new item in the store!!!! SO EXCITED about this one since it is my first ever COMMERCIAL USE item!!!! You can of course use it for personal use also! This is a fun set of overlays for you to use!!! These are 12x12 jpgs on a slightly off grid theme! If you have a regular photo program bring these images in over a solid background and change the layer style to create some beautiful papers!!! For my SBM friends you can use these as shapes!!! Start with a solid paper background then open a contrasting or complimentary paper scrap click on custom shape then browse to your jpg image. now your contrasting paper will have an overlay effect on your background!! You can get this fun set of overlays in MY DSO STORE. These are on sale for 2 weeks!!! 35% off!!!!

Now here is a bit of FUN news!!!! I AM HAVING A CONTEST!!!!! Rules and details to be posted later this week.... BUT to get your juices flowing here is a heads up!!!
