Earth Day, Main Idea, and a Freebie!

I simply LOVE Green Week at our school!  We have so many fun activities planned and each day we wear a different color to represent the focus of our day.  I wrote more about the things we do during the week here.  :)  We usually spend a lot of the week outside, but the weather isn't supposed to be quite as warm as it has been in the past.  We do not have ac at our school, so you won't find me complaining.  ;)

We will be working on summarizing and retelling key details about the main idea this week.  I will be using some of the activities in my Main Idea Unit that have a "green" focus.

Have a great week!

Clipart! Clipart!

I'm making a little more progress!  I made my first set of clipart images, nothing too fancy, but I'm still excited about them!  They are for sale in my TpT store!

Cooper and Charlie get excited when I get obsessed with projects like this because they love nothing more than to snuggle up on the couch.  :)

I hope you had a relaxing Election Day!

It's been a while....

There is just never enough time in the day is there?  Seems to be a constant battle to be fought.  I have been using any spare time that I get to try to play with Photoshop Elements.  I have learned a lot thanks to YouTube.  :)  It really is amazing all of the things you can learn on there.  I love it.

The last time I posted I was learning to make digital frames and now I have learned how to make digital paper.  Woot woot!  I am pretty excited.  :)  I love using the paper to make backgrounds for my whiteboard.  Jazzes things up a bit.  Here is the new bundle I created.  If you're interested, click the title below to check it out!

Clipart and Graphics!

I have recently become obsessed with attempting to conquer the unfamiliar world of Photoshop.  I love making things "pretty" and really wanted to learn how to make frames and borders, etc.  We had a 3 day weekend this weekend so I figured it might be a nice time to give it a shot.  After hours on the couch today fiddling around with it and watching tutorials, I am feeling a liiiitttle bit better. Nevertheless, I have a feeling it will be years before I understand all that this program has to offer.  So here is what I have accomplished after way too many hours.  I love using flower frames to jazz up my classroom posters, daily slideshows, and printables.  Click on the title to download!  Did I mention they are free?!  :)

Leave me a comment if you like!  Also, follow me for much more to come.  I bought this bad boy today.  It is the Wacom Bamboo Capture Pen and Touch Tablet.  It is going to help me make more pretty things.  :)

I am working on making doodle frames and borders and hope to have some finished this week!  Check back soon!
