Member Spotlight
Each month, we will be spotlighting a member from our forum! This is to show appreciation for the things they do that attributes to the success of the forum! This month, we have decided to recognize TWO members of the forum! They are Big Red, and Shirley803!
Big Red (Sally) joined the forum in May, and after lurking for a few weeks, finally jumped right in and started answering questions, giving advice and sharing some wonderful files! She has shared a wonderful collection of 12" borders, and is always chipping in giving advice to people with questions, based on her experiences with her machine.
Our other member we'd like to give a shout out to is Shirley803. Shirley joined the forum in June, and it didn't take her long to jump in either! I have gotten such a kick out of several of the wonderful files she has shared with the group over there!
It's wonderful people like you two that make the forum at paperthreads.com such a great place to pop in, learn, share, and have fun! Check your email, Big Red and Shirley803, we sent you a little gift as token of our appreciation for all you do!

This page layout was made by Michelle Hessler, using one of the shared border files on the forum by member Big Red. I took the diamond shaped cut out, and used the "reverse" of the cut out to make the strips above and below the photo. I then mounted the cutout on darker brown paper. It gives this layout a really rich feel, while framing the photo without over-powering anything! Thanks Big Red for such a GREAT border file! |

This month we are focusing on IllustratorCS2, and revisiting the basic topic of creating a connected word title. There are always many different ways that you can accomplish things in these programs, but hopefully with the screen shots and step by step guidelines, you will find this tutorial very helpful! If you don't have Illustrator CS2, but would like to try it out, to see if it is the program for you, you can download a 30 day trial from www.adobe.com
