Grannies Print Shop: Welcome!

Hello, and Welcome to Grannies Print Shop!

Since I've retired, I now have time to devote to my graphics.  Yeah!

I wanted to be able to use my graphics in a way that benefited my family members.

My daughter was out gathering her mail one day, when her six-year old daughter, E, said, "Mommy.  Why don't I get any mail?"

A very good question, I think!  How about you?

My daughter called and asked if I would send letters to my granddaughter, much as I had done many years ago with her older daughter, TS.

"Well, of course," I happily said.  For now, I had a way to use all the graphics I've been making over the last eleven years.

And so, I began.  I added a total of three people that get personalized, decorated letters.  Two of them are my two granddaughters, E who is 6, and TS who is almost 16.  My mother is in a nursing home in MO, so she was added to the list as well.

The letters are physical projects, and go out every other Monday.  That's about two a month.

But I'm sure you also have loved ones that would love to receive either "real mail" or texts with their pictures decorating them.

Currently, I send a scrapped picture to each granddaughter every day.  It is sent by text mail with a short message that says, "Hi E (or TS).  I hope you're having a terrific day.  Grannie loves you very much."

If you have a grandchild you'd love to thrill; this just might be for YOU grandparents.

Maybe just a picture every other week.

Basically, this is what Grannies Print Shop is about.

Every Monday, I will put up a template or item for you to pick up.  Save it to your computer, and use it yourself.  Whether you print pictures out or use a graphics editing program to insert pictures and text, it is yours to share your own message to YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

I know there are a lot of programs out in the internet world that will let you edit and add to your pictures.

I am starting off today with this free scrapping template.  Put a picture of someone in it.  Add words if you wish.  Take a picture of it with your phone, and then text it on its way. (You may NOT sell or copy as your own, but they are free to share with your loved ones.)

If you have questions, please feel free to leave them in the comments.

Enjoy my first share!!!  (It's a Texting Template.)

Download this one now!!!
