I found
Pixel Scrapper when I joined a creative team for a digital designer and was
looking for an open gallery to showcase my layouts. I had no idea how much this
little corner of the web would completely change my daily creative habits. I started
digital scrapbooking after a vacation in 2008. That creative obsession led to
joining forces with another creative scrapper and starting a digital design
business of our own. After several years we both went in different creative
directions and moved onto other business ventures. Just recently over the last
year when the pandemic hit, I started to focus on creating some freebie items
again. I found some amazing designers who had commercial use items here for
download and I started logging on daily to get my five free images. I built up
a nice little stash and started working with some of those items to see what I
could create. Those few commercial use items that I worked with from this site
jump started a creative explosion in my world and a necessary distraction from
what was going on around us and globally.
I
finished one whole vacation book that I had been trying to finish for 10 years.
I relaunched my blog and started offering up freebies to see what kind of
attention I could drum up. I got a lot of wonderful comments and even my
layouts garnered some extra added attention. I was hooked …. and it was all
thanks to Pixel Scrapper!!! I started browsing the page kits section which can
be found here: https://www.digitalscrapbook.com/browse/kits . And then I got a
link to download an entire kit for free. There was no way I was going to pass
that opportunity up. The toughest part was trying to decide what amazing kit to
get. And at that point I started making a personal wish list of all the kits I
wanted from this site.
Pixel
Scrapper has everything any creative individual would need. First, the
community is amazing. I always become creatively distracted when I log on and
see the gallery page. The members comments are kind and their words make you
feel positive about your work knowing others enjoy them as much as you do. And
then I always must log in and pick up any new commercial items that catch my
eye. Like I said it has become a daily obsession. I can share my own layouts
and creativity and be inspired by others as well. I have also for a few years
got into the Project Life obsession. There are so many resources here at Pixel
Scrapper as well for that. I am currently using some in my Project Life for
2021 right now.
I
recently got a Cricut machine as a gift and I have also used some commercial
use items to cut out on cards and personal little items I have made for myself
here at home. There are so many things you can find here at Pixel Scrapper that
will get your creative juices flowing. If you are looking for an inspiring
place to find kits and items to jump start your creativity, then this is the
place to be. I hope you find the creative spark you are looking for. And if you
have any questions the members here are kind and extremely helpful. Be sure to
drop by the forum section and look at all the information there is available.
This is in my opinion, one stop shopping for my creative habit and I am sure in
time it will be yours as well.
