Very Vintage

This is my second attempt at my blog tonight. Things just don't seem to get easier somehow. I am really struggling at getting the photos on, the order is always wrong, they are always in the wrong place, I don't know how to move them, BUT 'I will not give in'. I have decided that everyone who knows me realises it's a challenge for me, so they will accept the blog 'as it is', so thanks! If two entries or double photos show, just pretend they are not there lol.


Well, I have finally done something creative at last. I had a lovely email from Jean and Malcolm of CRAFTY INDIVIDUALS which prompted me to grab all my CI stash and 'play'. The thing I love about their stamps, papers and beautiful photographic images, is that you can grunge them down or pretty them up. Well today I went vintage, (must be something to do with me being 'over the hill', cos I am really into this style at the minute). I've not decided if I'll make a frame, book or cards with my creations yet, but here's a couple of sneak peaks until I decide. Hopefully I'll get time to cmplete something tomorrow, so watch this space........................

It's not just you, my photos have a mind of their own to (I think they move around by themselves!!!)

The seak peeks are such a tease - can't wait to see the images in full, as a guide if you upload the photos one by one, loading the one you want to appear last first and then load in reverse order they will be in the right place, ie each photo is added to the top of the post above the previous photo, also if you choose centre and large as placement and size for your images in the upload box, your text will stay at top and bottom of the photos rather than filling in down the sides, hope this helps, have a good week, see you soon XXX

I love sneak peeks but can't wait to see the rest!! If doing vintage is a sign of getting old then I must be over the hill!lol!! Bring on retirement I say so that I can draft more!!

When you are in edit on your blog there is a choice of EDIT or COMPOSE and if you click on the photo in compose it will put a marker in each corner of the photo, just click and drag to where you want your photos to be. Or if you are in edit just highlight the photo information you know the >kjfgjfgfgh< stuff and click and drag to change the order of them. (hope this helps)Love Ruth xxx
