Cool Stuff #3

First up, I just discovered “Windows Live Writer.” I’ve only used it for one post on my test blog; this is my first attempt on this blog. So far, I like it a lot! I think it will make blog posting faster and easier. I always think I’m the last one to discover stuff like this, but if you don’t know about it and are interested, leave me a note and I can give more info. Otherwise, I won’t worry about it.

Next: in a previous post, I told you about blog backgrounds you can find on Cheryl’s blog. Here’s another resource for backgrounds using some of my kits as well as other designers ~ check out Maria’s (aka Jakeline) blog if you’re interested.

And last for this post: Linda made a background for one of her friends using my Thank You freebie kit. Check out the background here. If you’d like to use it, leave a comment or send me an e-mail message and I’ll get you the code. Linda also has a word art blog if you’re interested.

Cheryl was one of my first blog followers and is such a nice person! She recently started designing blog backgrounds using some of my kits, as well as some from other designers. If you're looking for already created backgrounds, or just need a little inspiration on what to create yourself, go check out her blog here --> Pump Up The Blog. She has lots of really fun ideas! Thanks for sharing your talents, Cheryl!

P.S. If you're looking for the Afternoon Delight blog train, see the next post.

I love the layouts you're sharing with me and enjoy seeing them over and over again in the "With My Kits" slide show. I have quite a few new ones to add; I just need to take a few minutes to get caught up.

In the meantime, I will occasionally spotlight creations other than layouts that you make, starting with this post. Cindy makes these incredible "book cards" for friends and family and used my "Serenity" kit for her son and daughter-in-law's first anniversary. Click on the preview to get a bigger picture. I love how it turned out; it is simply gorgeous! What a cool idea ~ thanks for sharing, Cindy!

P.S. I've added a few "extras" to my "Autumn Fest" kit; see post below.
