3 columns please

Can anyone help me figure out how to do a 3 column layout on my blog? I tried to follow instructions from the "Tips-for-new-bloggers" blog, but they didn't work and weren't fully accurate with what my code says. I also tried to google this for help but wound up with a virus on my computer (jerk). If you know of a safe place to find instructions, will you please let me know? Much appreciated. Pin It

Lunch bag complete

I finished the lunch bag a few days ago, but I haven't had a chance to post until now. Here's the finished product. I'm quite happy with how it turned out. It's vinyl inside and out so spills or leaks can be easily cleaned up. And it won't get dirty as quickly either. There is a light layer of insulation too. This bag fits a lot of lunch in it, which is perfect for me.

Green drop earrings

I made these last weekend just for fun.
And tonight I'm working on a vinyl, lightly insulated lunch bag. Wish me luck, zippers always give me fits. I need to take a class on just zippers, I swear.

Halloween Costume 2008

So usually I like to do a somewhat detailed and involved Halloween costume, but this year--for many reasons that just wasn't possible. I needed something simple and quick. It doesn't get much simpler than stick figure drawings, right? Here's the execution of the idea.

For more fun photos and video's (Thriller renactment) of Halloween at Stampin' Up, check out Kristina's blog--and get some card making inspiration while your there too!

My Pumpkin Carving

I finally carved my pumpkin tonight. I've got 2 photos side by side because they each show a little part of what's inside-- a crow on a hanging trapeze bar (or whatever those things are called).
