All of the dreariness of the day has me wishing for more motivation than just trying out different settings on my camera... but there you have it.
along with the rain, John has just left to go back to school and I'm not going to mince words here people, as I watched him and Cam pull away the tears flowed like the rain outside.
I think the idea that he graduates on Sat. and then will be moving across the country has hit home and hit home hard. :(
that is life and I want nothing more than to see my birds spread their wings but it doesn't make it any less painful when they do.
(sorry just keeping it real.)
back to the collage...
All four of these shots were done with the manual setting.
I am ashamed to say it (but I will anyway) but I didn't even know my camera could take a sepia or B&W shot without editing on the computer!
I bought some dill from Aldis and thought I would use it for Easter dinner. I was unsure what I was going to make with it at the time but it just smelled so good! Then wouldn't you know it, I made my "moms famous dilled carrots" but used the dried dill I always use in the recipe because I FORGOT that I had bought fresh dill. ugh.
I should be ashamed to say that too, but there you are... apparently I have no shame! LOL
so now I have a little pitcher of it to use as a photo prop!

(the carrots were delicious by the way)
you are welcome Boo! xoxo
While I was playing on Picnik I made a couple of thank you cards to go in my packages from
I actually turned them into collages so that I could print off more than one at a time.
For some reason (the reason being that I need MY computer fixed because I had that one figured out when dealing with the printer and I don't have Cam's figured out at all!) I can only get Cam's computer to print one at a time so the collage worked great for the cards. I will just cut them apart to add to the package.
There are a few things I would change about them and I could dr. them up a bit but I can only justify so much play time on the computer. And I NEEDED to talk to all of you today, it has been a week since I posted last! Where oh where does the time go?
So do you all PICNIK?
I still haven't upgraded to premium but have been tempted on more than one occasion. For now the free version works just fine. (I like anything that is labeled FREE)... just saying.
and just in case you thought that maybe I haven't had my hand in any creating... I did manage to make a couple of market totes. I had an order to take care of and while I was printing on that miracle transfer paper I thought I would make something new. Love the bees, of course not really fond of them when I'm relaxing outside, but they are cute with crowns, are they not?
Then I went crazy big with one of my flowers.
That's how I roll, once I make enough of something I have to play around with all of the sizes it could be!
So this one is enormous!
Guess what? While we were visiting. the rain stopped!
thank you. I needed that!
Come by and work your magic anytime! ;)
love, Theresa xoxo
