Anna marie cd

[Karriepie]

Just spotted a new cd from Anna Marie and wondered if anyone has used her cds before? Might take advantage of the free P&P on C&C ! I have got quite a few templates but some of her designs looked interesting but not in the mood for difficult software as still battling with the famous MCS Pro!! By the way cannot believe they're still banging on about the new program on the P.O.W after so many peeps having trouble! You'd think it would be more appropriate to solve the issues first before flogging another load! Outrageous!!

I have all three of Anna Marie's cds, I think I was lured in as I just loved all her samples. The cds couldn't be easier to use. I have laminated many of the templates I think I will use most often, as thats just the way I like work with them. The designs are very simple, so it is all about the papers and embellishments you use. I have loads of papers which is another reason why I bought the templates. You can use the templates as standalone card shapes or put the images on your cards.

Some may argue that you could get similar images free from the internet. The way I look at is that I am happy to pay back the artist for their work and their designs (particularly individuals rather than companies) to encourage them. I really like Anne Maries work and her ideas and attention to detail. I am very happy with the cds, and if you have a graphics program you can resize the images if you wish (they are pdf images) but I have done this just to test, but the sizes are fine as they are too.

I am also looking at the polkadoodles cds as probably my next purchase as I like the look of these aswell. Trouble is i keep being distracted off into other areas of crafting!

Thanks for the info. I've got a few polka doodles cds and love them too. Paper Boutique is great would recommend if not sure.

I used to live near Anna Marie and attended her classes before they decided to focus on craft shows, I am in awe of Anna's work, and she really does have an amazing flair in her cards. I brought all of her templates before they went to CD, but have also brought them on CD.

She does have a website if you want to buy the cd's from there or buy as templates not on CD,
