Thank You so much! (and some colour therapy printables)

Thank you Thank You THANK YOU for
your sweet words & lovely advice.
You are the best readers anyone could ever hope for.

Since I'm not the only one with Winter depression, I thought
I'd share a bit of colour with you all to perk us up. :-D



It's not all ready yet, but here's a mish-mash look at
some free printable patterns I'm working on to share with you...

1- Pomegranate:


2- Strawberry:


3- Papaya:


4- Tangerine:


5- Mango:


6- Lemon:


7- Lime:


8- Green Apple:


9- Blue Raspberry:


10- Blueberry:


11- Plum:


12- Grape:


13- Dragon fruit:


14- Cherry:


15- Pink Grapefruit:


16- Pink Lemonade:



With any luck, I hope to have 16 colours of each pattern...
(and matching overlays for you to make your
own custom papers, if you want)
....done and uploaded in a week or two.

They are 350 DPI (and 12.5 inches square)
for printing quality.



If you want to use any of these right now,
you can download the original size on Flickr this way:

1) Click the image you like (to go to Flickr)
2) Right click on the image once you are there.
3) Click the photo to pull up a menu
4) Select "original" from the view all sizes menu
5) Finally, right click and hit save as.

Hope these fruity shades make you smile!

Love,

P.S. I did a print test (of the PNG) out of Photoshop & I was really happy with the way these
custom colours came out. If you want to test it out, a JPG print test sheet is here:

(not sure how JPG will print, but when I upload to acrobat.com, I'll include
PNGs so you have a choice.)

Hiding away with the Blues

I'm so sorry for being gone so long.
Anyone else feeling those Winter blues?

I've been taking a beating from the relentless migraine-beast

lately (and to be honest) quite a bad case of depression
that has had me feeling extremely tongue-tied in life & online,
so I've been hiding away...



(I normally have a dash of melancholy in my constitution
but not as much as recently. Winter has really konked
me over the head this year, I tell ya!)

But...
And I am working on getting ready to poke
my head out into the world again:



(and I've been pinning to try &
stay in the creative mindset)

Just wanted to stop in to say sorry for my absence &
Thank You so much for your patience. I hope you have been very
well lately & that your days are filled with creativity and happiness.

much love,


(and love from Mouse too--who is just wonderful and much healthier than
usual, lately ...knock on wood!)
