I didn’t have any good pictures of roses myself so I used a really nice rose from the Freefoto.com website. The pictures at Freefoto.com are free for private non-commercial use, but remember to read the rules before you download and use any of them. Another good resource for free stock photos is stock.xchng. You need to register to be able to download full sized photos, but you don’t have to provide any photos yourself if you don’t want to.
The font I used for the names probably came with Photoshop and is called Edwardian Script ITC. The font for the &-symbol is Kunstler script. If you use the GIMP or any other software you might not have these fonts on your computer. You can either buy fonts or use a free font. Good resources for free fonts are 1001 Free Fonts, FontFreak, AcidFonts and 1001 Fonts. You can find links to more free resourses from the sidebar or by doing a Google search.

Hello Suzie. I’m learning lots from your blog. Thank you for sharing your expertise to ignorant people such as myself. *s*
I have a simple question: What HTML code do I use to put paragraphs in boxes or borders? I keep looking, but I think I don’t know enough to ask the right question. Thanks and if you’re able to respond, my email addy is: kabbalahgirl@gmail.com

Thanks for the info. I was looking at how you changed the body to pixels instead of %
Would you do the same thing for the sidebar? How do you know the numbers as not to change the look.
I want my blog to look the same even in small windows.
