You are correct! In fact, I had so much fun making them, that I have now made a 2nd set and both should be in the store sooner rather than later. :D

PS. There ARE some other colors besides pink in there :D plus I know you know how to recolor. :lol: :hug:

Aren't you just Miss Johnny on the Spot! Looks great Heather!

[Christine]

So I want to make sure, does everyone understand how these borders work? Makes sense to me, but as I made them, it gives me a bit of an edge. LOL

[moog25]

These are awesome! As for how to use them, it looks pretty straightforward.

[pieohpah75]

WOW! Those borders look awesome, Christine!

[idtwinmom]

Got this one done!!!!!!! I still can't believe I packed so many photo's on this LO, but as you can see, you really need to see the attitude with which DD marched in front of me!

Love how you guys are using this for heritage and not quite so heritage!

[Mammarazzi]

Thank you again, what a beautiful kit!

[Christine]

Mammarazzi, so glad you came on over to play. Thanks for the link. I see that you are new, so let me teach you how to link your LOs so people can go give you a comment. (You don't have to do it this way, feel free to ignore me if you like. :) )

1. open up either 2 windows or tabs, depending on which browser you are using, one will be your gallery, the one with all of your thumbnails, the other the forum that you want to put your post into
2. in the forum, go down to quick reply, then click on the go advanced button
3. in the advanced window screen, in the top right corner there is an A/A button, click it, your area where you type will change slightly, (hard to describe but it looks like you have a border around it now)
4. Now go to the window/tab that has your gallery, click and drag to highlight the thumbnail of your LO and the title below it
5. Hit ctrl+C
6. Go into your advanced window on the other tab/window, and click in the typing area and then do ctrl+V . In your post, you will see the small thumbnail and the title, which are clickable so people can go and see your LO bigger and leave you a comment. Like this:

Beautiful pages everyone! I picked a couple of pages this morning to feature on my blog. Waiting for permission on one, so only one is up. The blog link is in my siggie if you want to see. Speaking of the Saturday Spotlight, I started a thread where you can sign up if it is ok that I feature your LOs. I don't want to feature one w/o permission. I will PM you and let you know if I pick your's. :D Here is the sign up link:

I couldn't resist... I had to use this kit for my family history album cover (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=284625&ppuser=32067). The word art was just too perfect!

And if you don't have it in your files already, Chris's A Little Bit Dirty overlay set (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=8840) has this fantastic pleated overlay that can be matched to the stripe paper to make it look like it's pleated.

Thanks Chris.

[gram2nic]

Honeymoon,

Both of your links go to the product. Is that what you wanted? I can't see the album cover.
