  2. LOL, you're probably kidding, but yes, it's different from the Limbo which I was good at when I was young. Jumping the Broom is an old wedding tradition. Enslaved people would jump the broom to symbolize marriage since they weren't allowed to marry legally,
  3. J = Jumping the Broom
  4. Amazing find! Looking forward to what you might do to your own shots. I really like B&W with selective color.
  5. I love the selective coloring of the door!
  6. So glad to have you back, @Sue Thomas. ❤️
  7. I have a Find My Font app that I won years ago. If you ever need help identifying a font, I'd be more than happy to help. I'll make a post in the FB group.
  8. I take it Valentine. I used Cassel's HeartChainB picture tube to make the heart behind the lovers. The font is Young Love ES from AZ Fonts. The new word is KNIT.
  9. I would love to have my family tree done, but the records for Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe are close to impossible for me to find. I can only go back as far as my grandparents who came to the U.S. as children at the turn of the last century. Too bad I'm not a celebrity or Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. could do the work for me on Finding My Roots! 🙂 One of these days, I'll invest some time and money to see if I can trace my roots.
  10. I don't mind at all. It's for my FB gaming group, CGL Fabulous Divas. The game is City Girl Life which is very similar to The Sims. It gives us a different theme every day so I make a Daily Look post. The game is dying down so after ten years or so, my group may be closing soon. On the upside, I'll have more time to devote to my scrapbooking lessons! BTW, I didn't name the group; I inherited it. 😁
  11. Thank you. Check out the script in the store and you'll see the flexibility it offers. https://creationcassel.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7_9&products_id=476
  12. I was short on time and creativity last night when I decided to use the Painted Background script and it saved the day. It uses the colors from the photo of your choice and gives you brush options to choose from. I've used it before and I love it. So the next time you need a unique paper, try this script.
  13. That wonderful illustration is by Elsie Julia Miller. I don't love the finished product (ran out of creativity last night lol). But I wanted to share how to get a great background paper by using Cassel's Painted Background script. It takes colors from the original pic and, using one of five painting methods that you pick from, creates the paper for you. I think I used the Sponge option. The fonts I used are Varsity Team (from 1001 Fonts) and Brilliant Signature (from a CF bundle).
  14. I don't have a slow cooker, but I'm glad you were happy with your results.
  15. I had to Google rolling pin rings, but now that I've seen how they work, it makes perfect sense to me. If you want to cook chicken breasts but are concerned that they will dry out, try this. Bread (I like to use Panko crumbs) and par fry them to get the desired color on the breading. Put them in a baking dish, add chicken broth, and bake at 400F for about 30 to 45 mins. When they're all done, the broth will have been absorbed and the chicken will be nice and moist. Since I don't usually like white meat because it's too dry for my taste, I was glad when my sister taught me this method.
  16. O = Osteoporosis ~ something exercise helps you avoid!
  17. Shiny things distract me all the time! lol
  18. It's been a while since I had time to create a new one. (They've been repeating themes from 2017 so I've been repeating my layouts with a few adjustments.) The background paper is a chevron from PS/DS by Sheila Reid to which I added a Gaussian blur. I used the Andrea Bilarosa font I got in a free font bundle from CF and the flourish is from my collection of scrapbooking "stuff." 🙂 As you probably already guessed, the illustration is by Hayden Williams. The best part, and the reason I wanted to share this, is Cassel's gimp trims picture tube. I used one to frame the illustration and the layout.
