If you’re an avid iPhonographer, you probably have your fair share of square photos from Instagram or Hipstamatic. Printing them is a hassle, as most of the common photo printing services don’t offer square prints, and instead blow them up to fit the standard 4×6 size! Here’s an simple tutorial for creating a Photoshop action that will add a white border around your photos that can be easily sliced off.

I found a vintage atlas at my favorite local antique store for a few bucks, just begging to be ripped apart and used in all kinds of amazing projects. I scanned in some pages and created this set of 12 3″x4″ journaling cards for Project Life or any other scrapbooking/papercraft project your heart desires.
This download is in .zip format and consists of 12 individual CMYK .png files at 300 DPI – perfect for printing. Two have transparent backgrounds for framing your own images – to use, simply place over your photo in your favorite image editing program and crop. The photos in the preview are for example only and are not part of the download.

Here’s an inspirational quote for you to print off and hang on your fridge. Or office. Or wherever.
I like to think it’s a little more awesome than your standard “inspirational” quote. But you can be the judge of that.


"Live every day like your evil twin is coming to steal your life and do it better."


Let me know if you download it! Happy Printing!

Just in time for Mother’s Day, I designed some cute little cat-eye notecards and matching envelopes. Just print the cards on cardstock and the envelopes on regular letter paper.
The .pdf download includes glasses in four different colors (two per 8.5×11″ page) and an envelope for each.
Please feel free to share the preview image, but link them back here! These are for personal use only, please.
PS: If you download and find them useful, please leave a comment! I always respond, and they make my day!

I uploaded these knit stitch Photoshop brushes back in October, but I’ve since learned that the original file didn’t include all of the brushes. Oops! I re-packaged them for you, so you should be good to go! Merry Christmas!
Download! (.zip 359 KB)
To create a canvas of lovely stockinette (that never curls!) simply do the following:
1. With either the single or the row of stitches, position your cursor at the upper left side of your canvas (or at desired start point).
2. While holding the shift key down, click and drag your cursor to the bottom of your canvas (or to desired stop point)
3. Repeat along the entire length of your imagined sweater-canvas.
For gorgeous fair-isle or stranded colorwork, simply use the “filled” knit brush in the color of your choice to go over individual stitches:

In other words, please use and enjoy them, but *don’t* use them for profit or commercial use and please give me credit if you share or modify them!

Although I’m a very disorganized person IRL, I *need* to have an organized, clean, and consistent-looking desktop. This includes how my dock icons look, and unfortunately, I really dislike the colors in the Google Chrome icon. Bleh. So I decided to try to make one myself that isn’t quite so garish/flat. Go ahead and download it if you wish! I’ll talk about some free/simple ways to change up all of your icons in the near future!

Click here to download! (includes .png and .icns formats)
Obviously, Â the icon itself won’t include the banner or logo image.
