How to Make a Super Cute Cover Page for Your TPT Item! (Flash Giveaway!)

People always ask me if I can make a tutorial for how to make cute cover pages, but I have hesitated to do it because it involves so many different aspects of PowerPoint and so many different tutorials!  I finally worked all of this information into a book, which you can find over a TPT!

I reworked a number of my tutorials so that the fit perfectly on letter paper, and I added a number of new tutorials!  This book includes step by step tutorials with pictures on how to make an adorable cover page (just like the one below) in PowerPoint 2007/2010 for PC and PowerPoint 2008/2011 for Mac.  It shows you how to do this without spending any money on clipart (but still abiding by all copyright laws!!!)  Click the picture below to see the book... and grab it tonight only for 25% off!


This book includes a number of highly organized and detailed tutorials on all of the following!  It will be useful for people who are new to PowerPoint, and people who are experienced with it as well!


Now... for the flash giveaway!  My grandma, who recently passed, and I typically make spinach ravioli by hand every single easter. This year, my husband took on the task of helping me... and he did great!  My grandma and I normally make between 600-800 mini ravioli (about 1" x 1").  How many ravioli do you think my husband and I ended up making? (I'll give you a hint... it's in the range I just mentioned!)


This tray is one of 8 that we made!!!

So... how many ravioli did we make?!  Whoever has the closest guess will win the set!  Be sure to leave your email address!


Update at 10:54pm:
Thank you everyone for guessing!  Congratulations to Jen from Jen's Kinder Kids and Danielle from My First Love for both guessing one off from the actual number!  We made 723 ravioli and they guessed 722 and 724!  Congrats ladies, I'm sending you the packet right now!

Jim Henson predicted the end of the world

Or more accurately, Brian Henson did. But more on that in a second... I read an article today about the BP oil spill, and some analysts think the oil spill won't end until Christmas. Meaning 4 million barrels oil would be dumped in the Gulf. And (I'm quoting) "That much oil would wipe out all life in the Gulf and completely change the ecosystem." (read the full story here ) Let me repeat that:  That much oil would wipe out all life in the Gulf. In less than a year, those greedy bastards and their lack of foresight will probably lead to the destruction of an entire ecosystem.  Fish, crabs, eels, dolphins, sea turtles, and all the plant life. Here's a list of how and what animals are effected by this: here . This doesn't even mention the economic damage it will do to tourism and the jobs of people who thrived on fishing and dependency on the Gulf life. One more time: That much oil would wipe out all life in the Gulf. Let's put aside how devastating it is to ...
