I really had good intentions to post sooner! :) I have so many random thoughts that I've wanted to post about - hopefully this week I'll get to them all! I've got a busy week - lots to get done but it's all good and fun. I'll have something on the Freestyle Blog later this week so if you want to play along, a challenge for this week will be posted shortly. (((ETA: Just kidding! LOL! It looks like they are going to go ahead and close it earlier than planned. So, be sure to check out the Designing with Color Blog for great weekly challenges!!))
So........I just have to share! :) This is my 'secret' toot from awhile back! Who would of thought that it would of turned into so much more...with me working with AL. I just love it! This book was super fun to work on and I've seen a lot of the layouts in it....incredible! These girls always amaze me! I really love some of the layouts I did for this book...too fun! So neat to see my name on that list...I've just admired these girls for so long. So neat to be apart of it ... so grateful!!!!!! :) :) :) Thanks for letting me share! ((And a huge thanks to Scrapbook Oasis for the picture - hope they don't mind me sharing it here as well.))

Thanks to everyone that has been asking about the '3 Product Challenges' and wanting them to return. I posted a new one today at Two Peas and I hope that many of you will come and play. I am really busy this week so I didn't have time to create a new layout for the challenge, so I pulled an OLDER layout as my inspiration for the challenge. I did this layout in Oct of '05 but it's still a fav of mine. Thought I'd go ahead and share it here too... (it has a white background - hard to tell).
Anyone willing to share with me how to get a black border around photos or layouts? I'd love to know! :) :) :)
This weekend we did something that was sad for me....I'll share picts and my 'story' another day this week. Crazy how fast time goes by.... ):
Anyway - hope you all have a great Monday! I gotta get scrappin'...deadlines to meet and fun stuff to create! I created a page last night for an upcoming Autumn Leaves project that I just Love! I love when things come together - and quickly! LOL! Still need to work on that 'quick' issue with my scrappin! Thanks for coming by! Hugs!!
So happy that you're a part of this! :)

Still so happy you're with AL now... another BIG reason why I must buy those books! I have PSE 2, so it may or may not work for you depending on which program you're running. For the black border: have your layout open. Then click Select - All. Then Edit - Stroke. Then make sure the color is set to black, the width is 1, 2 or whatever px you want. That should do it! Hope that helps :)

Congratulations on the book, Robyn! SO cool! I love all of the AL DW books!!! You're so talented and you deserve all of your successes! ;) Oh, and if you have photoshop this is how I put a black box around my layouts on white cardstock - go to image - canvas size - then change the height and width to pixels and add 2 to each one. That should do it! Let me know if you have any questions and if it works for you!!! ;) Have a great week, girlie!! :)
