I know, I said I was going to take a couple days off but I did have a little time today to play on the computer and created a little shape with the pen tool that resembles a paper clip. I was inspired by some cute clips I saw at the craft store recently that had different designs inside a bracket frame. I thought: "I could do that!" And the beauty of it is when you create them digitally you are not limited to just a few designs. You can literally make a million of them! The freebie includes a layered template in .psd and .pngs plus 10 finished clips that you can add your own photo or design to so it will match your kits and layouts. Create your own clips by the use of layer styles, background papers or patterns. Also, you can leave off the glass layer if you like, some patterns will look better without it. Here's one I made in seconds by applying one of my gem styles to the photo template layer. If you like it you can grab it by clicking on the clip and then in the new window you can right-click, save-as.

And here's the preview and download links:

these are great Deb thanks bunches. You always leave room for me to add my own little touch thanks.
PERFECT!! I'm always looking for that "I don't want to use yet another paperclip" element and I'm limited - until now!!
How about we start going to the craft store on lunch so you can find more inspiration? (Totally kidding, I don't know how you keep up as it is)
