Grab A Marker
Ever know exactly what you want on a
page, but know you are not going to find what is in your
head? Want to draw it, but you do not own a digital
tablet? You can still do it! Follow these easy
steps.
Grab a sheet of white cardstock and a
black marker. A ball point pen will not give you enough
strength. If you are nervous, pencil in first and then
trace with your marker. Scan it into your
computer. I will show you with just a word.

Use your magic eraser to remove the
white background. Then go to Enhance>Adjust
Color>Hue/Saturation and slide the lightness all the way to
dark.

It is really very simple, but can be
fun. You can scan in a stamp, a doodle, an ad (make sure
not to try to sell something that is not yours) for your own
personal use. After you have the basics down, you can
try all sorts of things. Erase a bit, create a brush,
layer items on top of one another. The options are as
vast as your imagination. Here is another I did for this
layout:
