Believe it or not, I've never used del.icio.us. Because of your post, today is the first time I've ever looked at it. There's loads of resources there. Your interest in scrapbooking is way beyond mine. I've collected links and downloaded hundreds of embellishments, kits, mini-kits, templates, etc. with the "thought" of maybe using them someday. I've only actually created about 10 pages using Paint Shop Pro 9. I'm a procrastinator...someday. </p> <p>I do have a lot of fonts, including dingbat and picture fonts installed on my PC. Have you seen the thread here, <a href="http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/2419?replies=24#post-15362">Font Freaks Untie!!! ....um, I mean Unite!!!</a>? It's a great resource. I've loved fonts since before PCs and even found some old books from the 40's and 50's showing assorted decorative lettering styles. I used to sandblast designs into glass and mirrors and I'd use photocopies from these old books to make stencils. Did the same thing for making silk screens for T-shirts, hats, etc.. </p> <p>I have a friend with three children ages 5, 10 &#38; 12. She brought about half of the traditional scrapbooks she'd made for her kids to the house one day. There were about 15 books! I don't know how she finds the time with 3 kids, all of their activities, a full-time job and taking care of her home.</p> <p>BTW, someone will probably remove your IM address. Posting personal info here is a no-no. :) </p>
