Splendeur Caisse

 Day 29: Nature: in Seattle  Day 30: Soft: lighting Day 31: Love: Gathering, journaling, gluing Finally the last of my pictures from the August Break. I'm taking it easy this week, as I ease back into being home. Being away was refreshing and I have some many ideas and do's I want to accomplish. xo Alicia

How was your weekend? Mine wasn't too terrible. I did lose some sleep because I was up learning new things for the blog. I made a new banner! This was the first rough draft. I didn't like the white space under the photos and couldn't get to be transparent so I scrapped this first draft and went with the mosaic banner you see up top. All thanks to this tutorial from  Clover Lane . I had to download Picasa but it was definitely worth it. Now I can create photo collages to share here. Fun! Plus, I finally learned how to create a grab badge for myself! <---------------It's over there! Under the bloglovin' button. Yeah, it's the same as the banner. I just wanted to try making one and it worked! Believe me I've tried before without any success. Until last night when I found this awesome tutorial by Bartering Blogger! Yay, I feel accomplished! On to the next goal. xo Alicia
