I know I don't post here much anymore, but I had to come out of hiding to show you all Rashmi's beauuutiful work!!! She is so talented and creative and I love what she's done for us. I'm just so excited to get these printed (at shutterfly) and send them out. Christmas cards will be exciting this year!!!

Tammy! I was just thinking about you earlier today, wondering how you and Lauren were doing. She looks like such a little girl... they're really not babies anymore, are they?

The card is beautiful, thanks for sharing it. I hope things are going well for you.

Rashmi said she wanted to use a "peace" quote because unfortunately, Evan will be going back to Iraq in February :( We're pretty devastated about it, but what can you do?! He will be gone most likely between four and six months. Anyway, she found this great quote and I love it!!! Rashmi's a real star! Love that girl!

I can't believe they're sending him back! For some reason I thought he got out of the military.

We're here for you Girlie!

Rashmi, you definitely did it again! I love the quote and it is (unfortunately) most appropriate for their family. Tammy, I'm so sorry that Evan has to go back to Iraq after the holidays. You know we'll be here for you!

Nice to "see" you, its been awhile.

I'm so sorry about Evan's redeployment. I'll be thinking of him, and all the other soldiers who are in Iraq.

Wow. Rashmi, you do such amazing work all the time!

Tammy - so glad that you came out of hiding. I have been wondering how you, Evan and Lauren were doing (especially since Lauren and Sarah are so close in age - just a few days apart, if I remember correctly).

It's great to see such wonderful pictures of her!

The card, and Lauren, are beautiful!!

Tammy, we miss you! Please be well. We're all wishing Evan's time away is short and successful. Weren't you looking to start a store? Whatever happened with that?

Tammy,
Sorry to here about your DH's re-deployment. Praying for his speady and safe return.

Rashmi,
Yours is so much nicer! You are truly gifted. You've probably been asked this hundreds of times but have you considered going into business for yourself - if not now than sometime in the future. The cards you have put together are always so much nicer than any that I see "out there". I wouldn’t hesitate to be a customer.

What program did you use to make the card?

It looks beautiful.

Yooohooo! Haven't seen you in these parts for so long! Hope everything is well and baby Ian is doing fine.
I used Photoshop Elements 2.0. I believe it is selling for $40 now, so quite a deal!

Love it! Love it! Love it! And what a treat of a way to see Lauren. Have missed you Tammy. So sorry to hear that Evan has to go back. I hope you will be able to put thoughts of that aside and truly enjoy the holidays. Welcome back.

I've been thinking about buying Photoshop Elements for some time - After seeing Rashmi's beautiful work and what program she used, it inspired me to go ahead and get it.

I found Elements 2.0 (the one Rashmi has - it is the older version, but a great deal to at least try it before I decide to invest in a newer,more expensive version) here:

http://www.softwareoutlet.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=0325

or www.softwareoutlet.com

for $30 plus $4.95 shipping - it is a full version, not an upgrade!
