PicMonkey

I thought I was done with my Simple Tech Series, but alas, I have two more fantastic tutorials for you! I hope I have already cured your ails with Pinterest, Twitter, Blogger, Google Reader and the late Picnik. But, I didn't want to leave you on a low note with Picnik's sad news, so I am here to spread photographic joy! This week and next, I will post tutorials for Foto Flexer and PicMonkey. These are the best replacements for Picnik, hands down. So today I bring you... Tutorial Six: PicMonkey PicMonkey is brought to you by the creators of Picnik. It would seem as though I wasn't the only one upset with Google for killing off the best photo editing site on the web. A few of the creators banded together and came up with a photo editor that is simpler (if that was even possible!) and cuter. To upload a picture:  Read more >

Using Tic Tac containers to tame ribbon.

[Editor's Note: Taming trim and ribbon can be tricky business. The ladies at Prudent Baby figured out a way to do it and freshen their breathe at the same time. When I saw this clever idea for organizing unruly spools of ribbon I couldn’t get to Costco fast enough to buy tic tacs in bulk. Runaway spools of ribbon running amok on my craft room floor – watch out, my fresh breathe and I are coming for you. - Jen]  Read more

I love these little cartoon characters. They came from the blog www.pixelsandicecream.com along with the cute papers I used for the background.I saw this sentence on a craft sign somewhere recently. So I thought it would be cute to put the birds with the papers and words and keep it-for myself. I can use this reminder sometimes. I'm perfecting this method. Or am I practicing this concept constantly?  Probably never will get it perfect. :)  Read more >

My biggest complaint in the last two years? I don’t have enough time in the day. Like most moms, from the moment my eyes open (usually with a toddler staring back at me six inches from my nose) to the moment they close again for the night, I am in constant motion.  Read more >

How to make a dimensional paper portrait of your home.

[Editor's Note: I collect crafty portraits of my family. The wall in my hallway displays a cartoon of my husband, pencil sketches of my kids and small doll versions of my pets. A dimensional paper portrait of my house seems like the perfect addition to my collection. Jessica from Décor Adventures shares how she revamped a thrift store canvas to make a unique paper sculpture of her humble abode. What a great house warming gift this would make! - Jen]  Read more
