For those of us who love scrapbooking our family photos, heritage photos or just the art of scrapbooking because it is such a beautiful craft (somehow such a simple word as craft does not do justice to scrapbooking, but it's what I could come up with at this moment) the internet is an absolute virtual playground!! What fun spending time at those sites we grow to love and, in fact, grow to depend upon, for not all of us are so fortunate or talented enough to design our own papers, frames and embellishments and somehow that special photo that begs for a fresh new idea has to wait until VOILA! There it is!! We have found exactly what we were looking for. We knew it would one day appear out of nowhere, catching us by surprise, as had happened so often in the past. I love Cen's Loft. Not only is she a wonderful designer, she is a wonderful person as well. You can feel it in her writing. I ran across Penni quite by accident and was immediately hooked! Her site is GallimaufryUK. Her designs are breathtaking, as are her team's. One of the girls on Penni's site has designed a printable box template from the latest scrapbook kit. I have already download it, along with the kit and can hardly wait to begin! I believe I have called printables the "no fail" craft, because all you do is download it, print it, fold or whatever it calls for and, like magic, a precious little handmade will appear before your very eyes. You have to try it if this is something you haven't done before. Computer crafting is a big thing now.
We've come a long way, Baby! I would love to design, I guess I even long to design. I am sort of artsy and crafty and make everything, but am unable to design, so I am grateful beyond measure for the lovely people out there who are brimming with talent and gracious enough to share with those of us, like me, who can't even draw a stick figure without a lopsided head. Be sweet and good. Later!! (I've got to go fold the box I downloaded.)
Just click on the sites in above post to go there.
