Custom Digital Services - My New, Lower Prices

The current economy has affected just about everyone. Like so many others, my situation has changed drastically from a year ago. I'm more careful about how much I spend, and what I spend it on. We're all trying to spend less and spend smarter.

When it came to my business, I needed to cut my expenses there, too. For three or four weeks I worked almost non-stop on finding ways to do what I need to do for less or, in some cases, for free. It has meant giving up some pretty cool stuff, like the service I was using to send out my newsletter each month, or an ad-free (for a fee) way to sell my digital downloadable products, but in the long run I think it's going to be well worth it.

Worth it because now I can pass on my savings to you, my customers, in the form of LOWER PRICES for my digital custom-design services PLUS a FREE PRINT of your custom-designed pages (8.5 x 11 or smaller), AND FREE SHIPPING (for a limited time)!

I guess I haven't made any kind of "official" announcement about my new price structure although I have mentioned it here and there a couple/three times.

So! I'm officially announcing my New . . . my Improved . . . my Lower . . . my Recession-busting . . . my Smarter-spending Prices!!!

Here they are, from the pricing page of Webajeb.com:

New Digital Template Plus FREE Pre-made Pages

Webajeb-Template-02

The second Webajeb page layout template is here!
$1.49

(If you missed the first one, which is a FREEBIE, you can get it here.)

These are so much fun to use, and easy, too. As mentioned when I posted my first layout template (here), Webajeb templates are layered .PSD files with a "Plus." In Jessica Sprague-style they feature a plus sign on each layer that is clippable, making it super-easy to identify which layers are made especially for clipping digital papers.

I use Photoshop but I know tons of digital scrapbookers use Elements or other programs, some of which may not support the clipping technique. Please know that these layered files are still appropriate for you!

You don't have to use clipping on these layers. You can use any method you like to recolor, select and cut, or apply styles and textures to the layers. These .PSD files work like any other, with each element on its own layer, making it easy for you to add your own papers, elements, titles, and journaling.

Here is the template with photos, digital papers, color added to the fibers, and some text:

Thanks to DigiTreats for the January-themed paper (slightly recolored to match my photos). If you don't already "follow" the DigiTreats blog, you need to jump on that bandwagon right now. There is a freebie nearly every day plus a huge shoppe (currently having a Grand Re-Opening sale) full of great digital, well, TREATS!

I love the DigiTreats flowered paper so much that I also created a version of my finished page without the 5 small photos at the top, so that more of the flowered paper is visible:

Another really great look, don't you think?

Now, for those of you who prefer pre-made pages I am making each of my fully layered templates available in that format as well.

Introducing Tumble Templates by Webajeb!

You can be among the first to use one of these templates. Simply click on either of the template images to download it. Download both, if you like!

UPDATE: 03/10/09: I have had to remove the links to these pre-made pages. After letting Pamela of DigiTreats know that I had featured some of her papers here on my blog, she wrote back to say that I could not use them to give away as freebies due to the fact that she uses other designer's products to create her own, and that those other designer's Terms of Use preclude their use in any commercial way, including as freebies. **SIGH** Sorry about that, friends! However, I will (as soon as I have time between all the traveling I'm doing this month) re-create these pre-made pages using my OWN papers and then re-post them, as freebies, of course!

Tumble Templates are delivered as flattened .JPG files. Simply open a new document in your scrapbooking software program and drag in the template. *On the template layer, use your magic wand to select the gray photo areas and delete it. You now have a hole in the template. Add a new layer under the template, "tumble" your photos onto that new layer, and re-size as needed.

(* Of course, this is just one way of adding photos; use any favorite technique.)

Save with a new name, and Done!

Free Digital Scrapbooking Layout - Christmas

Here's my latest pre-made digital scrapbook page layout. A simple layout, with a classic look, perfect for "busy" photos; that is, photos with a lot of people in them, or with a lot of different colors and/or patterns, where you don't want to highlight any one part of the picture, instead you want the picture to simply stand out nicely from the page, and to be the first thing the eye is drawn to.

This layout is especially suitable for group photos taken at Christmas, like this one. The date on the layout can be modified to any year you like.

If you'd like to see your family Christmas photo in this layout email me at deborah@webajeb.com! This layout is free to you if you mention that you read my blog or that you are a subscriber to my newsletter. (If you are not yet a newsletter subscriber, visit my website and sign up at the bottom of the homepage.)

Just a few mouse-clicks on your part and you'll be the recipient of a digital scrapbook page layout ready to be slipped directly into your family album.
