Swatches


Freebies! I love them. There are so many neat and talented people who are willing to share. I have been collecting kits (some bought through online stores and some from freebie kits).

I needed a new way to find the digital papers and elements I want to use. Opening and looking through folder after folder just wasn't cutting it for me. Picasa works but I still had to search through each paper and element in a kit.

So... I am making a 6 x 4 inch swatch for each kit. Some kits have a preview page so I just use that page and add any credit information. I save each swatch to the same folder. Now when I open Picasa I can see each kit and its contents immediately! Click on the image to the left to see some of the swatches and their credits.

cool! I do something similar with the kit previews as the pic in the folder icon :) If I can't see that....I go nuts! I have no idea what is in the kit!
