Happy Friday! I recently took these photos of my old ballet shoes. These brought back a bunch of OLD memories, because it seems I spent a lot of my time in the ballet studio!
In the photo below, I used Kim Klassen’s Waterfront18 texture, and I’ll link to Kim’s Friday Finds today.

OK, so isn’t that the cutest scarecrow??? I apologize I didn’t add who the quote was by: Helen Keller. Happy Thursday! Do or Learn something NEW!
A VERY nice friend of mine tutored me on card-making last week…and guess what??? Now I MUST invest in this NEW gadget:
It’s VERY cool! I just may get hooked on card making if it’s that easy to make plain paper turn into REALLY pretty paper! Check out her etsy shop {HERE}!
As you may know…another crafty NEW interest of mine is Zentangle; and I found a great site with fabulous designs! Check out All things tangled!
And lastly…if you’re like me…not really a runner, but would love to be a runner and need to build up endurance, check out: How to build endurance in 5 steps. Good to know. Now to actually implement the ideas. Too bad I’d rather be out shooting than running. Maybe I can run a bit…take a pic…run a bit….take a pic….run…. :o)

Happy Friday! So…what do you get if your husband comes in from mowing the front lawn and gives you a rose from the rose bush while you’re canning plum jam? Yup! The photo above! 1) Graciously accept the rose…2) Grab the closest canning jar…3) Take a photo…4) Texturize it with Kim Klassen’s textures, and… 5) add the text that you think will make the world a better place! WhaaaLa!

Happy Wednesday! If you recall, a few months back, I posted the above (here). Well, just Sunday, my new daughter-in-law pointed out another DUMB thing I did and that reminded me of yet ANOTHER dumb thing I did. SO, I’m starting a collection! :o)
You’ll notice this is a NON-ALCOHOLIC collection of the ‘I don’t always’ meme, because I don’t drink and don’t want to promote drinking. :o)
If anyone wants to share the non-alcoholic dumb things they do, feel free to use this blank poster:

Hi all! Happy Tuesday! When I took this photo of this window on our vacation, I specifically thought about the ‘A Lingering Look at Windows’ link up….but then it took a while to sift through the vacation photos! This is at a very public spot….can anyone recognize this window? Ok, ok…a hint: It’s in the state of Oregon. Anyone? Anyone? :o) A gold star for anyone who gets it right!

Reflection. Such a good thing! This bridge was just outside our hotel room in Portland, Oregon last week. I hope this photo will remind me to stop and reflect more often.
Also…I’ve been very excited lately to learn some close friends and family are expecting babies soon. I LOVE children! They are such a blessing!…and I whole-heartedly agreed with this video’s message:

Happy Saturday! You know, I believe these are the only black/white photos I’ve ever posted! I really love B/W photography, but I’ve never seemed to get the right images for it. However, these photos from a foggy beach in Northern California seemed to work out ok since they were pretty colorless photos to begin with. Lots and lots of fog that day!
