New Widget

Today I learned how to add a Pinterest widget to my blog. See. It's over there on the right. I even pinned the article on how to do it. And in case you would like to add your Pinterest profile to your Blogger blog also, here is where I found it.

Pinterest Board Widget

That's all for now.

Have a wonderful day.

Free Photoshop Class

It's another beautiful day here and today I bring you news of a free class at JessicaSprague.com. It's a photo enhancement class called Frame-Ups & Clipping Masks and it's FREE. Woo hoo! Click on the image below for more information.

Mother Kit Update

It's a beautiful day and I should be outside, but instead I decided to add an update here. I am now able to include links for my Mother Kit on my blog. I left the links in the Scraps N Pieces gallery also and you can still find the links to many of the other participant kits there as well. See the next post for the links.

But before I go, I want to leave you with this picture I took of my boys while out bike riding. The snappers are out and about laying their eggs. We came across this one on the bike path. She was rather tuckered out and recovering her strength. I could see the freshly dug nest nearby.

Attempt At Design

It's been a while since I posted anything here. I keep thinking I'll be a blogger someday. But, for now it will be just random stuff, like this...

I decided to take a Designer Mentoring Class at Scraps n Pieces. I'm happy how it turned out even though some of my designs didn't pass the quality control step. One of my favorite pieces was a flower scatter that I couldn't include in the final product.

You can find my designs, along with the designs of other class participants, in the Photoshop Class Gallery. There are links in the comments where you can download them too, if you like. You will need to sign up or sign in to get there.

Here are my class contributions.

Sneak Peek from Chelle's Creations

This time Chelle's sneak peak is a little spooky. I can't wait to see the full reveal. I just love pumpkin guts, don't you?

Sneak Peek From Chelle's Creations

I saw this and I had to share. There are oats in this kit. I don't think I have ever seen oats in a kit before. This reminds me so much of my childhood. We had horses when I was a kid and we used to get a wagon load of oats from the grain elevator and I would have to get up in the grain bin as a kid and keep the grain away from the top of the chute so that it wouldn't get plugged up. I loved climbing around in the grain as a kid. In hindsight, it probably wasn't a good idea. I would come out of there with oat dust in my eyes and lungs. But it  always was so much fun. I can't wait for the reveal of the kit.

The Color of Poo

Ben's favorite color is blue. So, for Zach's birthday, Ben wanted to buy Lofthouse cookies with blue frosting and cookies with yellow frosting, yellow being one of Zach's favorite colors and the other being green.

Anyway, a couple of days ago, I noticed and mentioned to Ben that his poo was bright green. I thought for a moment then told him it was from the blue frosting. No big deal. But yesterday, Ben brought a blue cookie to Zach and told him it would turn his poo green. Steve asked Ben if he wanted a blue cookie too. Ben replied, "No, green isn't one of my favorite colors".
