Serendipity is the name of Kim Klassen’s texture that I used on this photo...
I used Serendipity on the top photo at 100% in the multiply mode of CS5....
On the bottom version I cropped it more in Picasa and
applied the Picasa Sepia Effect...
I’m still trying to learn CS5...taking baby steps here...
Grandaddies...and grandgirls...
relationships made in Heaven...
Beauty Queens ... all three!!!
This Grandaddy, who just happens to be our county Mayor, is no exception...
One proud “Papa”!!!
Just outside my door is a trellis with a Clematis Vine
...and this year we have a birds nest...
It had only one egg the day I took these photos
Now it has three...
I’m kind of excited!!!
The photo above is from my files, I think it was a Dogwood Bush or something
like that...I don’t think it has bloomed since it’s first year...
I think this Candy Tuft might be my favorite perennial ...
This Japanese Maple is more of a bush than a tree...
it is about four feet tall and probably six feet in diameter...
It currently has a nice crop of weeds, ivy and a black dog under it...
Michael thinks this Japanese Kerria is downright invasive..
I love those prolific blooms...
“Wild with abandon” comes to mind when I look at them...
Wishing all of you a Happy Easter Holiday
Enjoy your families!!!
Just a little snippet of the Phlox...
I took these photos a week or so ago...
Could anything look any springier???
Have a beautiful week peeps...
Visit Mary @ Little Red House for Mosaic Monday
I ran into this young lady recently when
she was helping her Grandmother...we
decided she needed some cute shots taken...
even though it was raining buckets outside...
She and her Grandmother made these cute elephant pins!!!
Thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers
on my previous post...it was greatly
apppreciated and much needed...
I have the very best friends here...
The white dogwood blossoms are from the Governor’s Mansion in Nashville...
These are some of the ladies that attended
“Ladies Day On The Hill” in Nashville last week and
The guy is our Representative Bill Sanderson...
The lady in the red blazer in the top and bottom right photo is
Mrs. Susan Witcher, President of the Tennessee Federation of
Republican Women
Mary is hosting Mosaic Monday...
Please visit her...
Spring...
Is the beginning
Of new Life
Life is bittersweet
Yesterday we buried
Our stillborn grandson
Jameson Thomas Gookin- April 5, 2011
Son of James and Demanda...
We grieve as the earth welcomes spring
...and God has another angel...
I thought I would play with some photos and some new header designs...
I always start with a mosaic that I’ve made in Picasa...
then I add text and crop it down to what I like...
I get a lot more fails than keeps...
Wishing you a beautiful week...
I’ll be away this week...
With a little luck...I’ll have some new photos when I come back!!!
Mosaic Monday photos are at Mary’s Little Red House
