Hi! Welcome back to The Name Game!
http://www.kathrynsdigitaldesigns.com/images/Kathryn_1202.jpg
Just make a siggy using last month's challenge prizes, and you'll get this pretty new alpha designed by Kristmess for participating. Not only will you love this alpha as I'm sure you do all of Kristmess' designs found in her store HERE (http://digitalscrapbookpages.com/digitals/index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=203), but we'll be using this alpha next month for this very same challenge.

Now, back to this month. You'll need to make a siggy using last month's challenge bonuses. If you didn't get a chance to participate in challenges last month, you can purchase the entire New Beginnings challenge kit in the store HERE (http://digitalscrapbookpages.com/digitals/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=26_181&products_id=25004).

Either way, stop by my Digitals store (http://www.digitalscrapbookpages.com/digitals/index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=173) to get the alpha I used. Look for the image at the beginning of this thread.
Open a blank document 12" wide and 6" high. Start with strips or shapes from background papers, add a cluster here or there, and of course, make sure your name is nice and large. Add shadows and if you like, a few words about yourself.
When you're finished, group all of the layers together and clip out all of the excess space. Here's how I do it. I merge visible and then ctrl-a, ctrl-c, ctrl-n, enter, and ctrl-v.
Resize to 600 dpi wide (or less) and save as a .png or a .jpg. Upload to The Name Game gallery (http://digitalscrapbookpages.com/galleria/showgallery.php/cat/1543). Then add your new name creation to your signature. Use the tutorial HERE (http://digitalscrapbookpages.com/category/scrapbooking-tutorials/general-tutorials/)called "Adding blinkies in your Forum/Gallery signature."
Last of all, post in this thread so we can see your new siggy right away!

Somehow, I totally overlooked this challenge! I'm glad February had an extra day in it this year!
I had to edit the alpha so I could have what looked like capital letters. My siggie really isn't spelled using the "English" alphabet.
