Tempting Template

I’m in the middle of a template-building project using simple designs that I can use to make a year-in-review album with coordinating papers and a unified style.  I know there are many who digi-scrap who don’t care to re-use papers or elements because they don’t want their pages to look similar, but that’s exactly what [...] Filed under Freebies, I Scrapped! | Comments (3)

Will a TIF File Make Your Day?

After reading all the responses to my poll (and I’m overwhelmed by the participation and thoughtfulness expressed) I’ve decided I need to start adding at least a TIF version of my “designer” templates (as Janet called it).  I’d add the PNG files if I understood exactly what is required for those, but I think it [...] Filed under Freebies, Stuff and Rants | Comment (1)

What Have We Learned, Class?

I didn’t want to have to admit it because writing it down makes it real and I soooo don’t want it to be real but it is, so here I go… I lost an external hard drive.  The one with all my digi supplies.  The one with every layout I’ve completed since May.  The one I’ve [...] Filed under Freebies, Stuff and Rants | Comment (0)

Can Cabin Fever Cause Printer Ink Emergency?

Snow. We finally had some. For a brief, beautiful half-day yesterday, we had snow on the ground and fat, fluffy flakes floating with fairy-like grace to settle into drifts and piles.  The kids got excited.  I dreamed of magical photos with snowball fights and well-dressed snowmen. Alas, it wasn’t to be.  The temperature inched up and up until [...] Filed under Freebies, Plugs & Reviews, Stuff and Rants | Comment (0)
