Layout Program: Micrografx Windows Draw 6
Clip art: Cliptures 46 - Just Fun
Fonts: CAC Crazy Legs

This scrapbook page was done completely on the computer. Using Draw 6. I created a light violet rectangle for the background. The Cliptures graphics were imported and, along with the text, arranged on the page. Next, the scanned photographs were imported.

I took advantage to the fact the bubbles in the flying saucer graphics were transparent, and, Draw's ability to crop a digital photograph to an irregular shape with it's "Slice" command.

To do this, I created a freeform shape in Draw that was slightly larger than the inside of each flying saucer bubble. (One for each saucer.) Next I used the shape to "Slice" the photograph for each saucer. Then each photograph was layered behind its saucer.

The page was printed on glossy coated inkjet paper, the blank edges were trimmed off, and the page was mounted on colored card stock.
