I am beyond excited! If you don't already know this, I have NEVER owned a digital camera before. I am a 35mm kind of gal, and I was quite happy with my film, that is, until I started my blog! If you don't have a scanner or a digital camera, blogging life is difficult! My husband has a camera phone, and that's what I've been using all of this time. That's about to change, my friends!
All of these are Miracle Whip jars with painted lids. There is a slot in each, and it's now a bank! All of the cardstock for the lids was cut with my Coluzzle.
I have Mommy's Starbucks Fund. I LOVE the way this one turned out! I found the image on the Internet, printed it on kraft paper (perfect choice!), added black ribbon around the lid, a couple of Primas, and it was done!
On the lid I added the words, "tall, grande, and venti". I thought that was a nice touch!
Next is for the Vacation Fund. Once again, just learning with the camera! The flash kinda washed the color out! The paper and alphabet stickers are NRN Designs. It's a kit I got on QVC. The flower ribbon border on the bottom was a gift from Jana from Really Reasonable Ribbon. The ribbon on the top is American Crafts, and I also added some Primas.
The top has "fun" and another Prima stack.
So, the new camera couldn't be more exciting! I'm thrilled! I won't even let the fact that we have about 3-5 inches of snow, and I need to shovel the driveway in about 20 minutes get me down! Have a great day everyone, and thanks for stopping by!!

these are truly amazing Carol!!!! delighted for you on getting camera!!! what a difference in the photos so bright!! xx left you a comment on post on beautiful wedding card :) xx
Lucky, lucky, lucky is all I can say, a new camera and snow! ok I know you are less thrilled with the snow than I would be! I love your jars, I so need a starbucks jar like yours, it is fab!
Have loads of fun with your new toy, i got mine last year and I am still as thrilled with it as the day I got it.
Good tip for your photos is to turn off the flash and place the article next to the window to get natural light to photograph it. With all that snow you will have the best lighting ever!
Have you joined the Sisterhood of the bloggind stampers yet? i just joined and there is still space in my group if you are interested, great way to meet new blogging buddies! There is a link on my blog!
Silly me, yes you have joined, I got so excited by your jars I missed the badge at the side!:)
Congrats, I'm really excited for you. I know, it took some talking to convert me to digital too, but I love it. So many options.
Take care. TFS.
