You may have noticed that I’ve been embellishing some of my photos. Sometimes I use an old cabinet card frame to perk up an image. Other times, I use washi tape frames. I bought both as digital kits from Kitschy Digitals and last night, I bought another one — Vintage Stacked Flowers, which are irresistible retro plastic flowers. I think they add a dose of fun and pizazz to my blog posts.

The creative force behind Kitschy Digitals is Danielle Thompson. I love her photos and in case you didn’t know, she has a killer blog, too!

Thank you for visiting Design Inspiration. I have Danielle Thompson in my favourites and had not visited her blog in ages, thank you so much for reminding me. I learned to increase a yellow tone to age pictures from her.

Love them! They go great with your pictures!

The photo by itself is hilarious. I was sad to see puglyfeet go, but I’ll just have to come here 2wice as much :)
btw, I love that you share tips like this. It encourages bloggers to take their design more seriously, and that is something I can really get behind.
I love these embellishments! So funny that you used them on the no dog poop photo! Made me smile.
OMG! i LOVE those!! i may have to poke around over there and snatch some of these up for myself! thanks for sharing!

I bought the card one and the tape one last week but I haven’t tried them out yet. They are super cute and I’m so happy you shared them on your blog. I hope you don’t think I’m being a copy cat if I use them on my blog.

haha, you’re surely having fun with these! it’s so nice to have them all neatly designed and ready to use… these kits are fabulous! but they would look totally pointless if your pictures weren’t so lovely. her blog has been on my favorites for a long time, i love the colours and her creativity. :)

I love those no pooping signs. The scrap blogging details are so lovely.
You don’t think your posts are fun and pizzazzy enough as it is?? Are you trying to KILL with over-the-top greatness?
so that’s why your photos are soo cute! :D
