Elegant Blue & Brown Binder Graphics
This blue and brown binder graphic set pictured on the right includes individual graphics designed to be printed and inserted into a 1″ half sheet sized 3 ring binder. These images were created to be printed easily to a home computer on standard 8.5″ x 11″ paper. Printing on photo paper or card stock is recommended.
Simply print, cut out the graphics along the edges, and hole punch as necessary. Note: I’ve included two separate versions. One includes text that matches the free prayer journal I’ve made available on this site, and one has no text so that you can add your own as desired. Hint: You can easily open these graphics in a Word Document, add your own text, and print to your own printer if desired. These would be ideal for a special event or as gifts. Each down-loadable graphic pack comes with the following: Continue reading

Backgrounds, Icons, and Buttons
Well, as you can see if you’ve visited my site before, I’ve just updated the theme again. I like to create new design themes for my own site both for variety as well as to demonstrate some nice Artisteer, Photoshop, and WP tweaking techniques. I’ll list a few of those techniques in this post.
Rustic Wood Themed Social Icons Pack!
These are some buttons I designed for a Western themed sites I did recently (email me if you are interested in seeing the working site), and I wanted to make the buttons available to you for FREE for all 4 button images. I offer more free buttons (and will continue to add to this collection) at Reflecting the Designer on Blogger. These, however, are a very special design with a rustic wooden feel and are perfect for a Western Themed or Rustic Themed blog or site design. The image on the right depicts all of the buttons as they are displayed on a site that features a wood background. These images were designed to be scrolling images on the side of the screen, but they can be incorporated anywhere you desire to put them on your site.
How to Download these Buttons:
Simply click on the picture to the right, and you’ll be directed to a zip folder containing the buttons that you can download to your computer.
