I have been seriously debating buying a tablet of some type for a while now. I help my father-in-law with his photography business, mostly end product tweaking, and thought that a tablet would enhance my ability to work in photoshop.
Well, this bamboo craft seems awesome! Not only could I use it for my work (bonus points!), it would be perfect for my personal scrapbooking and other crafts! I would so love to have one... and just might conv… Continue

I was browsing through my favorite websites and came upon this great idea from Ali Edwards (who is just amazing by the way!). She does an album of the christmas season in advance and then adds in photos during the month. What a fantastic idea!
