OMGosh, I'm frightningly close to computer litteracy!! I managed to scan a picture onto my computer, edit it, and then use the file # to make dh a cool father's day gift. AND to top that off I can even post a link!! Check it!!!

And ain't it cute?!

Patting self on back!

I was actually able to talk to a person on the phone and pay thataway so I didn't have to put my credit card on the computer and she was able to look at the design as I created it and tell me how it looked on her end before I bought. It cost $16 for the mug but $25 for over night shipping!! Dummy me, that's what I get for being last minute. I figure I'd spend $41 on a shirt for father's day and he's gonna like this about 10 times better. He's a coffeeaholic.

Very cute!! I showed you the pictures of my girls last night for the bookends for my DH, but I should have gone with this. I've been working on them all day and they're a disaster :( I am so NOT crafty I could just cry. I'm jealous you found this gift and got it, because now I'm sunk.

Your kids are adorable. Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for the complements, everyone! I was happy I could post it. I'm a mom and love to brag, lol.

The mug just got here!!!! It's perfect! The image came out very nice, the features are only softened slightly. Really great considering it's a scanned in picture sent to a second party. If you're ever considering doing something like this I highly recomend the site I used. They were very helpful and the product is awesome!!
