Digital Scrapbooking Genius

I've been thinking about doing a post on this for a while. While we were in Logan I came across a company called Piggies & Paws. I got online and saw a few of their way cute designs; they don't have a lot posted on the site for copyright reasons, but the artists themselves have huge binders full for you to browse through. For those of you who haven't clicked on the link on the bottom right sidebar, you can click the link above to find out more about them. They are a specialized group of artists who take your child's foot/hand print and create a fun picture out of it. For example, one of mine has Megan's hand and fingers blossoming into beautiful flowers (I'd show them here, but again, they are copyrighted) and Emma's footprint is in the upper corner transformed into a bumblebee. In the other picture, Jeremy's footprint was transformed into a a spaceship and looks dang cool.

The Piggies & Paws artist who did ours is Pam Odd and she is, besides extremely talented in the Jedi ways of making kids sit still long enough to get a print off their hands and feet, an amazing digital scrapbooking artist. I know some of you out there do digital scrapbooking instead of the traditional paper scraping. I haven't been enlightened in the ways of how to actually do it digitally, but wow! Just looking at the stuff she comes up with is inspiring. She has an online shop and she is a visiting artist at The DigiChick. Go to her site and check out her stuff, she really has the cutest and most fun scrapbooking designs I've ever seen.

There is also a website that takes all the names in your family and ties them all together in a very cool collage. The website is called tyedart.com. Check it out it's really neat.
