MDS 113 Photos in Punches

Do you ever wish you had the time to get out the doilies, glue, and glitter and scrap a page or make a card make for someone you love? If your schedule is packed, My Digital Studio could be your answer. It’s fast, it’s mess-free, and it’s a blast to use. Try it right now for FREE with their 30-day trial!  Click on the ‘Shop Now’ button at the top of my Blog for more info. 

Most of us rarely ever put a photo into any other shape than a rectangle or square.  And while it’s fun to fill your punches with bright colors or Designer Series Papers, did you know that you can fill any punch shape with a photo in MDS?

There is a Photos in Punches Challenge on Kimberly and Heather’s Facebook page this week.  I submitted this page. - I am waiting for Jackie to do the journaling.
Here is what you do:

1) Add the punch to your page.

2) Use the "Paper Fill" Option from the Design Center.

3) After you have selected a paper (it doesn't matter which one) double click on the punch on the page and zoom in on the paper to make sure it fills your punch.

4) From the Design Center click on ‘Fill with Photo’!   Your folder of photos comes. Choose your photo.

5) You can then zoom in on a particular area of the photo and/or move the photo within the punch window until you have it as you like it, then click "Okay".

Before putting your photos in the punch, get rid of any red eye – there is a button for that in MDS too.  I thought I could do it after, however, even tho you have replaced the paper with a photo, the program only recognizes it as a punch, not a photo.  I didn’t want to re-do the page, so these pictures have a bit of red eye!

I posted this page last March, which works for putting a photo in a punch also.  Now it has got a lot simpler - all you have to do is click on the ‘Fill with Photo’ button!

Here is the page before adding photos

MDS 104 Filling a Punch with a Photo in My Digital Studio

This is a 12x12 page.
Back to Disneyland with my grand daughter, Olivia.

Another page that comes together quickly. Any punch in MDS can be filled with a photo. Here is how:

Add your punch to your page. Click the Paper Fill option and fill it with any paper - it doesn’t matter what you choose, because we are going to replace it with your photo. Next, double click the punch to bring up your punch image editor. In your punch image editor, click Replace Image.
Select the folder that has the picture you want in it. Select the picture you want, and click OK.  That will bring up the Punch Image Editor again, and you can move your photo around in the punch, or change the size using the zoom in and zoom out keys. Once you have your photo where you want it, click OK.

You can now see my granddaughter with Jasmine and Aladdin inside the Heart Stamp Punch.

Paper: A Year in Review; used the Color Match button to fill in the tan square.

Embellishments: Crochet Trim Ribbon.

Punches: Square, Heart.

Font: French Script.
