About Cristi's Creations

I am a thirtysomething wife and work at home mom of an enthusiastic, wonderful two year old son and a beautiful baby boy. You could also say I'm a bit of a "creative junkie." My biggest creative outlet is that of photographer. However, I am also a blog nut. After months of searching the web, trying to find cute and unique blog backgrounds (and ones that wouldn't erase any of my sidebar elements), I finally figured out how to create them myself. I wanted to "share the love." So, during the Christmas season, I decided to make this little website so that my friends and family could also use the backgrounds that I had made. It's sort of just spread from there. I love doing it! (It's always nice to have another creative outlet and way to give service.) It's totally free - no strings attached. Seriously! If you do decide to use any of them, I'd love for you to comment about what you think! (Commenting helps me know what the general public prefers and which directions to take my future creations.) Thanks! Loves! Cristi :)

Happy Day!

This paper kit over at Designer Digitals, called "Sweet Rainbow," made my day! I loved the bright, spring-like papers. And the backgrounds turned out cute. At least I think they're SO fun!

Apples and Almonds

Summer over at Summertime Designs has created a new kit called "Apples and Almonds." I love the color combo of red and brown! These aren't particularly "spring" oriented. But they're still fun! Enjoy!

For a Good Cause

When I came upon this blog with these amazing papers, I couldn't help but be compelled by the story of this child with Cystic Fibrosis. I decided to download the papers, as well as donate to the cause. To read more about it, click HERE. You can also donate at that link.

Enjoy the creations inspired by a beautiful little girl!

On Top of the World!

These backgrounds came about because of two things:

1) the cute, bright papers I found at Designer Digitals and

2) my sister's request that I make some more spring-y designs.

And since we have SUNSHINE today (WOO HOO!) I'm obliging! :)

Enjoy!
