March Drawing Winner

Congratulations to Joyce from Brazil, Indiana, for winning the March drawing! Joyce likes the Michelle Czech glass heart earrings, so that's what I've decided to send along. :) If you have not yet registered for April's drawing get thee hence and do so! All you have to do is click "enter now" and put your name, age, and address in the email that pops up, or send mail yourself to drawing@dragonfly-jewelry.com.

And now, breaking with tradition, I am happy to post the Friday Finds a mere hour and 36 minutes late. :)

For the adhesively-challenged, This to That offers advice on what glue to use for various bonding tasks, as well as safety precautions to take for various glues...do you know what glues you should really avoid skin contact with (ie. silicon-based)? This to That does and is happy to tell you!

Okay. If there was EVER a product I thought there was no need for, it would definitely have to be decoupaged toilet seats. And no, I am not kidding.

I heart, heart, heart What the Font and it's identifont feature. Have a font you are dying to know the name of so you can locate it for your own use? Upload an image or the url of the font in question, and What the Font will do it's best to match it and give you a sampled list of similar fonts. If you are a design geek like me, this can save you hours of searching. Trust me.

My sister-in-law is a huge scrapbook junkie, and Ronna Penner's Scrapadelic site is a must-have url for scrapbookers everywhere. Ronna worked in the greeting card industry as a graphic artist and also makes great fonts. She combined both talents to come up with cool scrapbook elements that are simply outstanding in the field. All you do is pay a small fee for whatever you like (a full set of cool letters, words, or phrases is only $3) and then download that to your computer. You can then print what you want over and over, never having to pay for it again. No more tiny bags of tags or single sheets of costly layout paper; buy an element once and it's yours forever. Ronna rocks. :) (I can also vouch for her being a nice person.:) Thanks again for the Blackjack font, Ronna!)

I just love that this girl actually utilizes Latin, on both bracelets and underwear. Now that is making a fashion statement. ;)

And that is all for me this fine Friday, my peeps. Have a wonderful weekend. :)

Ad astra per aspera,
Jenie
