I tried adding my photo to my profile, twice. The first time the dialog box said the photo was too large. The second time it seemed all was well, except it doesn't appear next to my name, so obviously it didn't work.<br /><br />A major goal for the year is to stop stamping long enough to learn how to post photos and become an Ebay Seller.<br /><br />If my life depended on it, I couldn't have said the order of the colors in a rainbow.

I put the stem above the second L so it wouldn't be dead center in the word...a little asymmetry makes it more interesting. That L was green for that reason. <br /><br />I did put thought into the order of the colors, but I'll be darned if I can recreate the thought process. They are in rainbow order but start at different places on the rainbow. I just fiddled with things until they looked right--I'm very visual. The flower on both cards is the same color as the first letter of the words (well, the first word on the first card). <br /><br />I suspect you're being WAYYYY to hard on your versions of my cards and wish you'd photograph them and upload them to SCS so I could see! <br /><br />Blessings,<br />SusanSusan Raihalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03018860599601419989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-24821211360762957262010-03-20T19:54:39.687-04:002010-03-20T19:54:39.687-04:00I'll add my vote to the 2nd-card-preferers... ...I'll add my vote to the 2nd-card-preferers...

How could I choose between perfect and perfect?<br /><br />I'm so curious how your mind put the color of the stem with the color of the "l", or was that just a happy coincidence? And since the order of the colors is the same in both sentiments, but reversed, there must be a reason.....perhaps the sixth sense of the born-artist?<br /><br />How lucky we Followers are to get a behind-the-scenes peek into the mind of a born-artist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-7565905274763199242010-03-20T15:59:29.622-04:002010-03-20T15:59:29.622-04:00The SECOND one :o)The SECOND one :o)Abounding Treasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09579127610493409976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-83662810522870337102010-03-20T15:49:32.283-04:002010-03-20T15:49:32.283-04:00Do we really have to choose?
