You guys! I made my own digi! It was so fun! Thanks for the challenge MariLynn! I've never heard of Ed Emberley before, although I recognize one of his books as one that Raleigh's Pre-K class liked to read. I enjoyed browsing the blog that MariLynn linked for us and I really liked this singer. I thought it would be fun to draw a whole choir. But I drew them on my phone in the Procreate App. I drew the singer five times (OK six, but I threw out the first one). And I tried to make him all different shapes--tall and skinny or short and fat. Then I found this free online photo editor to make a transparent PNG file. I overlapped them all in Paint and cleaned them up a bit and saved it as my very first and very own digi! So I printed them out on cardstock and then on copy paper for a mask. I sponged the blue background for today's Free for All Challenge. I stamped a musical background and colored the singers with Copics. I had a ton of fun today. Maybe I'll make more of my own digis again someday.

Like Sabrina, I immediately thought of The Blues Brothers. Gosh Jen you are one seriously talented chickie creating your own digi's. Thanks for all the information and links! Your card makes me smile from ear to ear, thanks again for the details and for joining in our challenge.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the link to the photo editor. I want to make a few of my drawings to digital images and I may try using this....I might need some pointers. I love, love, love your choir people and what a wonderful card you made with it too. Fantastic job sweet friend!!!
