  1. Q = QUAKERY - A taste fault in brewed coffee exhibiting a distinct peanutty flavor. This flavor defect is caused by harvesting unripe green coffee cherry and then roasting the underdeveloped, light-colored coffee beans.

    Yet another layout inspiration I saw online. I didn't scraplift it entirely, just the basic idea. Background paper is from the Lilypad, a set of Fusion papers called "For Art's Sake". Then added the elements & text for the theme of books. Nothing much is mine, except the frame. I do love books and reading and do it whenever I find time. I met a man in a book club once who worked in an automotive assembly plant. He had a book with him all the time as he worked. If he could complete his part of the assembly in less time than allotted, he would read as much as he could, even if it was only 30-40 seconds at a time. I think that's amazing. (The quote is from Stephen King.)

    I do this too. Sometimes I see a layout I love and just have to copy the idea. I think it is the teacher in me. A friend once told me, "Teachers are licensed thieves." I copied all sorts of ideas for lesson plans and for bulletin boards for 32 years. It has now carried over into retirement.

  3. At the National Senior Games there was a wall where the names of each athlete were listed. I took a picture  of the section where my name was. I promoted my name to a layer, changed the blend mode, wasn't satisified so promoted that to a layer and flood filled the letters with a darker green. It still doesn't show up well but it is much better. Template 195 by Bourico Casper, AKA, Lady 22.
