Its a great day here today, I brought home a Canon PowerShot S5IS yesterday, so the day will be filled with experimenting. I have a ton of stuff to upload in the next few days. Make sure to come and visit again soon. tfl

This was just such a necessity! A note book to keep track of some ideas and goodies I want to work on. I couldnt wait for this to be done. But I still think it's a work in progress. tfl

Again, another challenge. I have to work through this series of summer vacation photos, I feel I'm getting behind.

This was a challenge I did this week. Now I can't wait to get the rest of my garden pic's done.

I had to find some kind of a storage solution to storing all the greeting cards we get from everyone so here is my solution. It's been a labor of love, but the problems solved. My cards have a nice place to hang-out and now they are not in a box! I made the chipboard books myself, they turned out great and at a fraction of the cost.

Valentines pull-out card

Well I've been really working on my break. Valentines day will be here before you know it.

I've joined a tag group recently and so here's the first one I made!

Make Your Own Template!

Step 1. Pick a pattern you would like to use over and over again. In this case I've used the Sweet & Pretty felt frame from Fancy Pants.

Step 2. Trace onto plastic "presentation" sheets with pencil. You can buy the plastic at an office supply store. NOTE: You only have to trace half of the pattern. When you use it just flip it to the other side to make one large frame.
Step 3. Cut out the plastic. If you are careful you will end up with two templates.

Step 4. Now use your template to create beautiful frames over and over again.
