There Are Different Ways to Share The Photos You Have Stored at Flickr
I love to use photos to create my step-by-step instructions for cooking, crafting and building my Squidoo lenses.I use the links to Flickr so you have easy access to the projects that I create for my craft club.
You can do the same thing with those great shots you take for 24 Hours of Flickr... or for 24 hours of great family fun at your house!

Thanks to Team Squidoo for Lens of the Day!

Squidoo and Flickr Is a Powerful Combination For Online Creativity!
Squidoo has given me the platform to express myself in the many arenas that are important to me. Flickr gives me the power to enhance my words with great visual imagery.
Together, I have all the tools I need to create my own little online kingdom!
My faith, my family, pets, crafting, and writing are the fuel that fires my spirit.
* * *
My desire to change the world for good beckons to me each day. The internet gives me the ability to share my thoughts, photos, journals and lenses for anyone who cares to read.
Squidoo gives me the power to direct royalties to some amazing charities. The pennies that are my part of Squidoo's donation structure are powerful when they are added to the other thousands of Squidoo members whose goal is the same as mine.
We want to help change the world for good!
It's an exciting and powerful vehicle, and I am thrilled to engage in the creative process that has been placed at my disposal!

August 9, 2008: Here's My Best Shot in Celebration of Flickr888
Old Town Scottsdale
It was a lovely evening for a stroll... even though it was still about 100 degrees!
I know that's still pretty hot; but it FEELS cool, since daytime temperatures can soar as high as 120 degrees!
Old Town Scottsdale is filled with shops that offer beautiful jewelry, fabulous art and glasswork...
And, as you can see from my photos, the streets are lined with seats made from wagon wheels, and some stunning statuary!
Come for a walk with me through Old Town Scottsdale, in sunny Arizona...
I Shot a Blown Glass Sea Creature in Old Town Scottsdale!

I Love the Vivid Colors and Exquisite Detail of Blown Glass
I just have to share these beautiful sea creatures I discovered while I was browsing Old Town Scottsdale!The colors are brilliant, and the detail is incredible... a delightful treasure for a gal who is also a crafty squid!
Who Knew Sea Creatures Could Thrive in the Desert!
I Was Delighted to Find a Paper Crafting Store While I Was Strolling Through Scottsdale!
Of course, I plan on going back to do some shopping!
I'd like to see what kind of goodies I can find to share with my friends and members of my craftaholics club!
So, what about you? Have you submitted your best shot to Flickr for the 888 Celebration?
