Customer Feedback

I received such a sweet email from one of my previous customers. Theresa wanted to show me what she had done with the Halloween hang tags she purchased from me awhile back.

Theresa's friends are going to get a jar of her homemade corn salsa as a little Halloween gift from her! Wouldn't you like to be one of Theresa's friends?!!!

Thanks so much for sharing, Theresa! Your email made my day!

Free Christmas Vintage Postcard Graphic!

Playing around in Paint Shop this morning, I picked one of my favorite Christmas angel images and created a little "Thank You" graphic that you can plug into your templates, or add to your websites or blogs. Enjoy!



Just right click and save to your computer, then upload to Photobucket or other photo hosting program. I uploaded it in the 320 x 240 size.

New Christmas~Holiday Season Auction Template Designs on eBay Now!

In the past week I've had one of my previous customers email me, inquiring about available Christmas~Holiday Season auction templates for eBay. Thanks for motivating me, Debby! Well, all of the ones I made last year were just for me, with a little help from my friend Sara at Graphic Pretties. Since I didn't have the technical knowledge to add some animation effects I wanted for my templates, I had Sara do it for me ~ effects like falling snow and candles burning. Anyway, once you add these type of effects and text to a Logo, you can't edit it, and I didn't save a "blank" like I usually do when I decide I am going to offer a particular design for sale. So it was back to the drawing board! I've come up with several different, new designs, but this one's my favorite:






If you'd like to take a peek at all of them, here's the quick link:

New ACEO's ~ Artist Trading Cards

Just popping in to give you a look at my new ACEO/Artist Trading Cards currently up for auction on eBay...






I absolutely adore working with the vintage children photos ~ It's so much fun looking at their adorable little faces and imagining what they could have been "saying." The clothing they wore back in those times is just fascinating to look at too. There is such attention to detail such as the lace trims and pintucking on the garments. I find it all so...charming!

It will make a cute doll accessory. Now to just make the doll! LOL!

I was finally inspired yesterday to finish my mixed media "Harvest" collage canvas. It measures 11" x 14", and provides quite a splash of color! It transports me back to my birthplace in New England, where Fall colors are so vivid as to be exhilirating. I miss the North the most for that particular time of the year. It's listed on eBay this week.
