Tuesday's Tip--productive "pinning"

I love Pinterest.
As a means to promote my own artwork and to gather ideas.
Recently, I stumbled upon a bit of a road block.
About a year or so ago I had  "pinned"  one of my mini albums from a post from this blog.
Great idea, you think.  Now when I want to re-create this mini, I can just click on the pin and Volia! I'm at the post.
Wrong.....this is the stumbling block.  The pin just took me to my blog, not the post.

So How do we fix this.
Easy.
Before pinning, click on the post that has the image you want to pin.
And then pin.
Now, your pin will take to back to the post and not just the blog.
see image below


And now I will get back to the job of re-pinning my pins....
Thanks for stopping by. Please leave a comment. I love to hear what you think.

Tuesday's Tips

This week's tip
is all about Studio J....
fantastic digital scrapbooking
And until the end of November you can create and then purchase a 2 page layout for only $5.
Just think ...
$50 = 20 pages, that's like  $2.50 a page
cheaper than a latte and it will last forever and not stick to your hips

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop.  If you came from Brandy's Blog, then you are in the right place! 

My daughter will be off to Europe with the School in the Spring, so I am busy thinking of "travel" layouts.
Here I used the Wanderful Paper Pack, paired it with the Designer Creations Honey paper bag , a couple of Wanderful PML Cards and a couple of cricut cuts, a couple of banners, and fini!
One layout done and a zillion more to go.  Hope you like it.
