Prom 2011
Had a glorious weekend
Hope you did too!
.....the old man is snoring.
Not really ;-)
The air was so heavy with the scent of spring time flowers, I just had to pick more daffodils today. I can honestly say that I never remember my daffodils having such a lovely scent to them. Perhaps the long drawn out, cool and rainy spring has made all the difference.
It's rather stormy outside right now, so I am playing around with textures from a couple of my favorite sources just for something to do. Click on the links to check them out if you haven't done so already. I am positive you will like them just as much as I do!

If you haven't noticed already from some of the images I have been sharing here ~ I am loving textures! Kim Klassen has been kind enough to share some of her lovely masterpieces and I have been in heaven.
This last week she gave us a challenge to use two of her creations on a photograph
they were Silence and Sweettreat
First I wanted to share my original image SOOC
And here are two versions using both textures on the same photo but
with two different looks...

I love how the use of textures and subtle changes can change the entire mood of a picture. A big "thank you" Kim for sharing and inspiring.
Off to see more great work ~ have a beautiful day!!

It has been a whirlwind week filled with highs and lows.
The kids and I were so fortunate to be able to attend the Production of The Lion King on Tuesday and I have been keeping busy helping with the preparations for my daughters Junior Prom.
At the same time we were saddened that.....
we were unable to visit my sister and her family to attend my niece’s Confirmation,
or my nephews 16th birthday,
that we had to attend the funerals of two family friends today,
then learning this morning of the passing of a former coworker.
I am tired right now….looking toward the weekend and keeping dear friends in our thoughts.
I am sure you are looking forward to the weekend too.
Take care, have fun, and enjoy every moment of it!
Woke to the smell of coffee this morning, rubbed the sand from my eyes, and wandered to the computer to check my email for messages left in the night.
Not really expecting much, I had to stop and rub my eyes twice more ~ For what I saw was a note that...
I had won the book drawing over at Carol Spinski's!!!
Her blog is called Raised in Cotton
I had stopped by March 30 (which by the way is my Birthday ) to see what was new and she had posted a giveaway for one lucky person to receive their very own copy ofFifi O'Neill's
I am so excited!!!!
How wonderful is that!?!?!?
I always look forward to stopping by to visit Carol...I love her style and her photography ~ It is just like being at home for me. Carol's home was featured in Fifi's (of whom I have been an admirer for some time now) book and I am so anxious to curl up and read it from cover to cover!
Can you tell??? I am really, really excited!!!!
Woo-Hoo Happy Dance!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you Carol!
It's like getting Whipped cream with Cherries on top ~ and all before breakfast!
So Sweet !!!!!!
Thanks Kim for use of your texture! :-)
Looks a bit more like the picture from a Christmas card doesn't it?
