First question comes from Jen...

Q: jen said...

Yes! First! Alright first, you are just too darn creative! That july kit is justLink amazing!
Secondly my question is: When you post pictures on your blog, you have great framing overlays for them. Are you creating them from scratch, getting them from Hof3, etc? Details! :D Especially the one on "Monday's goodness" post. Thanks!

Most of my blog frames already exist...I use House of 3 frames! Here are some of my faves:
Negatives Kit.
Rounded Corners Kit.
Rounded White Corner Kit
Ornate Frames Kit
Round in Circles Frame Kit
House of 3 Frames Kit
& if I don't want a full frame border...these House Edges are so fab. I like to stamp just 1 or 2 sides for added interest!

But, the one I used for Monday's Goodness was created from scratch. Meaning..I simply used a bunch of brushes I have created & pieced them together.
Details: It's a lot faster to use the pre-made frames & very rarely do I make them from scratch! When they are brushes, simply refer to this tutorial for guidance. When you have colored or black PNG files, go here!

    Thank you for answering my question. I do have the house of three edges and use them often! :D I normally throw brushes together but was wondering if there was anything/any place you were going for those. I am saving up for those framing brushes though. They are awesome.
    So now that I realize I'm once again the first poster, I feel a bit stalker-ish...

    Thanks for the info - this is so helpful. I also have a Q: How do I get rid of the transparent background around the outside edges of the framed photo, because if i save the file as jpg, i have a white background block which spoils the whole look of the framed photo? example on my blog of my last post.
