I wish... {and some free images}

 
{applied textures from Kim Klassen}

I wish {and maybe you do too!} that I weren't so WISHY-WASHY! Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. But after realizing that moving my blog was going to cause a host of yicky problems, I changed my mind, AGAIN.

So with my little tail between my legs, and peeling egg off of my face, it's official. I'm going to stick with Typepad. But if anyone wants to know how to export their blog, ask me, I know how to do it!

All was not lost though as making the temporary move resulted in me learning a little more about the inner workings of a blog that will come in handy in the future. Did you know that by exporting your blog to a file on your computer that you have effectively made a copy of your blog complete with photos and links? Nothing was physically moved per se...my blog remained intact. I just ended up with a copy of it in a downloaded file on my computer.

ALSO!!!! I learned how to comment on blogs using my Typepad Open ID credentials...thanks to Wordpress. Long boring story. But for any other Typepad users who want to know how, holler. I'll share my limited wisdom.

 

Here's a beautiful print I snagged from the Graphics Fairy. The frame is one I made by taping some punched papers together. Feel free to use the image if you would like...

And heres a few more I made from the same template using Elements. You will need to use a photo-editing program that allows you to work in layers in order to slide a photo behind the frame. Enjoy! I only ask that you not sell the images themselves in a collage sheet or CD or anything of that nature.

 

 
 
And last, but certainly not least, as I am so looking forward to it...

 ...Christy Tomlinson's newest online class begins on Monday, May 23rd. You can still sign up through Sunday, the 22nd. Click on this picture over in my sidebar if you want more details!

I adore her style and this one looks packed with lots more yummy journaling goodness.

 

 

Xo, Sue

Oh you naughty thing YOU!
I was so excited that I could now get hot off the press updates when you posted...that only worked because you had WP...ever so briefly...sniff sniff

You are worth hunting down :)...so I shall continue that here.

CTomlinson is so much fun to watch...Love her messy play with amazing results...her classes must be super too!
Looking forward to your take on her class.

I have always wanted to know HOW to get a copy of my blog...is it complicated? Mr M is asking what kind of file is it that you save it as...obviously he's heard enough of me pining for a copy of my bbb.

Happy May Weekend to you and yours!

First of all thanks for the free frame images. They look like fun and since Kim, I certainly know how to use layers :) But, the wishy washy thing...to me that is FREEDOM...you feel free to try, change, back up, and learn. That is a blessing. NOT wishy washy at all!
