From One Blogger to Another

From the City...(Little Dude, just shy of 9months)
So I've recently discovered some free online photo editing sites that are amazing!!! 
Super easy and straightforward, even for the most non techy folks, myself included.  Seeing as I discovered it from a blog I follow, it only seemed fair and fitting that I should pass it along, you know, good blog karma and all.

So here's the scoop.  You do need to register for both but its a very fast and straightforward.  Worth it.  

Picnik: The free package gives you the basic goods.  Basic pic editing, collage maker, different filters, writing on pics, rounded edges etc.  The catch is, with the basic, you get very limited collage making options.  Max, like 6 pics or something.  So then you take your edited pics and you head over here.

Big Huge Labs: Again you have to register.  You can add a max of 36 pics to this collage maker, you can do a basic layout, or a much more exciting one with larger pics and smaller pics combined.  It's so easy and straightforward, you don't have to resize pics or crop or anything, they just work everytime.  It's the best.  

So anyway, there it is.  

Hope it makes your projects more fun!

Our First Ever Contest!

From the City and the Country...
So our friends over at Kawartha Ecological Growers passed us down two tickets to the Green Living Show in Toronto next weekend and we decided in good blog karma, to raffle them off to one of our lovely blog readers.

But first, here's a little bit about the Green Living Show.

It's all going down this upcoming weekend from April 23-25. There are tons of attractions including a farm fresh fair, an urban backyard exhibit as well as an urban forest workshop which include discussions on seed saving and the benefits of community gardens. Children 12 and under are free and there are lots of activities for the kiddies that day so if you win bring 'em along!

Contest Details:

Comment on this post with your best living green tip that you apply to your own life in the city or in the country. Laura and I will give them all a read and pick a winner by Tuesday evening.

Good luck!
