Transparent Image Tape Transfer Tutorial for ATC, Collage, and Altered Art
This is such a good idea for collaging and it looks super easy.
12 Unique Business Card Advertising Displays
Page down for all the business card holder ideas. I love the mini couch one made out of polymer clay the best!
Kirupa.com
“Shocked Resource for Making Designers better Developers.” A coworker turned me onto this site chock full of great design & development tutorials. It’s fantastic.
Six Revisions
“Useful information for web developers and designers.” Blog-based site with lots of great resources, most of which they present in list-form. Full of things you never knew you needed to know.
Ornate, delicate paper cupcake wrappers
These are stunning. Expensive but stunning!
An Angel Grows Wings - Animated Mask in Flash
I was searching for different techniques for making things “grow” in Flash, like say a blooming swirl. This is a good step-by-step for something like that using masks…even though it’s for creepy wings and not pretty blooming swirly things, the idea is the same.
Learn PHP Free
I want to learn PHP but I don’t know if I can stomach taking a class right now for $800, two full nights a week….so I might use this site or something like it to help me better understand the basics. Lynda.com is good too, and not free - but only $25/month. That’s another option for a lot less dough than a “real” class, and I really like learning from video tutorials because it’s so much more hands-on and like having your own teacher.
Extreme Crafting - Resin Jewelry
I’ve always wanted to try resin crafts, for a cool tray or something with embedded stuff in it. I even went so far once as to buy the resin and catalyst. But I’ve never done it. How do you think Nathan would feel if I embedded some of his vintage Dukes of Hazzard toys or old Nirvana concert tickets in a crafty little breakfast tray???
Dump Cake. A Potlucker’s Paradise.
This looks amazing. And: “The Cast of Characters: Cherry Pie Filling, Crushed Pineapple, Yellow (or white) cake mix, Margarine, and Butter.” How can you go wrong?!
DIY Dollhouse
I want one. How fun would it be to decorate the walls with magazine pictures? I need to have little girls.
Making it Lovely
Another wonderful blog. ![]()
