Alpha Blocks - Blue

I made a set of alphabet blocks as my contribution to SNL57.  The theme for SNL57 was vintage toys.  I'm sharing the individual colors over the next few days.  Today you can get the

Glitter Butterfly

I'm trying to figure out if I have all my stuff backed up from my old computer.  I found this blue glitter butterfly on my backup drive.  I'm not sure what I made it for, but I decided to share it.  I hope people like it.

I also have a suspicion that I have been dropped from the Digifree/Craftcave search engine because I haven't posted very much.

Delphinium Clipart

I have been given a hand-me-down laptop which still needs to have all my graphics software and plugins installed, but it appears to be able to run PSP9 and Photoshop.  I will be upgrading to CS4, so all my new tutorials for Photoshop will feature screenshots and instructions for the CS4 Extended version.

I found an old delphinium tube that I made for an alpha back in 2006.  I thought I would offer it up as a piece of clipart.  I made the tube from a photograph that I took at Longwood Gardens.

I hope that people can use it and I hope to be back to making designer tools soon.

Happy Lunar New Year!

My computer is still borked.  I do not have any new creations.

This is the year of the tiger.  This is an old alpha that I made a couple of years ago.  If you want this tagger-sized alpha, you can get it here.

Heart Overlays

I made these overlays when I was working on my seamless heart overlay tutorial, but I couldn't make the preview without my computer seizing up.  My computer behaved well enough today that I could get it done.  The preview is very dull, but at least it is a preview.  I really wanted to share these overlays before Valentine's Day so that people could use them.

Conversation Hearts Alpha - Pink

I started this post three days ago, but life has been really busy and I haven't been able to finish it.  The computer is still flaky.  Sometimes it works.  Sometimes it doesn't.  It may take a month or two for me to save up enough money to buy RAM.  Sorry to all of you who like my tutorials, but there won't be any for a while.  I hope you all enjoy the last alpha in the conversation heart series.

S.W.A.K.

The Sealed With a Kiss blog train takes off today.  Thankfully, I finished this kit before my RAM died.  I used heart templates by Delicious Scraps and scripts by PSPgirl in my kit.  I was testing some scripts for PSPgirl and decided the results looked nice enough to keep, so I added them to this kit.  My part of the train is a full-size kit containing:

• 7 papers
• 2 journalling tags
• 1 bow
• 3 glitter lips
• 1 round frame
• 1 chain of hearts
• 1 flower
• 5 hearts
• 1 wordart
• 4 alphas

Conversation Hearts Alpha - Blue

This alpha was actually made two days ago while I was trying to see if my resuscitated computer would continue to function if used with all its guts hanging out.  It is a very odd sort of life support to continue functioning while all electronic innards are outside.    I wish I knew whether one could draw on the iPad.  It is such a cool idea and I'd love an e-reader.  If I could do some graphics on it, then it would be a very nice buy.  Right now I'm doubtful that it can replace my dying computer.

Conversation Hearts Alpha - Green

I've managed to resuscitate my computer (briefly) by running it with the case open.  I'm trying to put it through its paces to determine exactly how much failure it is actually experience.  I shudder to think that I have to replace more than just RAM.  The computer is from 2005 so I guess it is time that parts started to fail.

Conversation Hearts Alpha - White

I made the preview for this alpha before my RAM died, so I'm posting it.
