OK you guys!!!!!!!!!!

................I tried going back to the old classic blog template and lost all my gadgets, links and everything. SO, rather than start from scratch with that, I decided to tweak this one. And I figured out how to get the color and size again!

So we have the black background back again. I hope you're happy, cause I'm happy!!! BUT, lesson learned here, as usual.

The bright colors will knock your socks off for awhile from the old posts, which remarkably seemed to follow the blog. ISN'T THAT AMAZING????

And some more fabulous news....my dear friend Lin Brown from the UK is on Tim's Design Team, too. She is such a brilliantly talented person. YAY for Lin!!!

Shall we try a picture and see how messed up the new template can make that???? The flower is a project I made with Deb at CHA. Loved how the colors turned out on it. It was from Clearsnap. Could never in a millions years tell you how I did it! Luck is better than talent many days!

OK, it's only taken me 2 hours to get to this point... this is my son, the Over 30 goalie for the Morton Team that on the tournament last weekend. He's red, yes, cause it was HOT!

This is a really cool rack I found at an antique shop in Le Claire Iowa. I tried to get them for the classes, but they were out of stock for several months. This is the class that's coming up in Springfield at Prairie Art Stamps, without the rack, so call and get your spot. We're sure to have a great time!!!!

Your Humble Friend in ART,
Linda

  3. I have a black background as well. Just didn't like "the feel" or any of the other options when I first created my blog.

    Congratulations on making the TH Team! That is quite an honor!

    Have an art-filled weekend :)
