{Texture Tuesday} The Posie eDition

One of my favorite balconies in Italy....in a village on Lake Orta....not large enough for seating, but plenty spacious for flowers in bloom. With the open window...talking, music, laughter, raucous good cheer, scents of good food... from below.....oh, the joy of.

Textured with Kim Klassen's 10.10.10 and shared with Texture Tuesday

where flowers bloom every day!

{Texture Tuesday} The Little Things eDition

My Easter cards this year were quite the hit with the little ones in my family so I decided I would continue into the week after and expose Mr. Bunny Whiskers to Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday....you see, the theme this week is the little things. Kim and I agree....it's the little things that give me the greatest joy....a little voice on the phone saying 'I love you, Aunt Mart', the kiss blown across the pillow from him to me and me to him each night, the 'whatcha doing?' question each morning just to let me know he cares. These little things add up to mountains of love and memories.

{Texture Tuesday} Oh So Soft eDition

Sense: Touch....soft - smooth or delicate

Mood: You have to know when to be arrogrant. You have to know when to be humble. You have to know when to be hard and you have to know when to be soft.

{Texture Tuesday} The Pink eDition

Too beautiful to stay inside....me and the bumblebees are buzzing. Pink is everywhere in my back garden....roses, dianthus, clematis and Japanese magnolia. But I ultimately decided that the flowering crab apple with Kim Klassen textures, grayday and be still touched up with vivid light blend was my "pink edition" favorite.

Farewell to The Twelve Days of Textures

From the HeartLand: Thanks Kim for twelve days of wonderful textures...Friday bids you farewell.

Day 9 of The Twelve Days of Textures

I took a moment to add Lola to this picture for an easy completion of Day 9 of The Twelve Days of Texture.

Here's where I started! Downtown Monroe - original Frances Hotel, now retirement housing renamed Frances Towers.....still a grand old lady. I don't know why it's for old folks...there are no grocery stores down there anymore. Quite a walk for the lame! Not meaning to imply that old folks are lame.....but! they are, aren't they? Perhaps it takes one to know one!

Day 8 of The Twelve Days of Texture

Day 7 of The Twelve Days of Textures

A picture from May, 2011, out of Umbria, Italy, was ideal to enhance with Kim's Day 7 of The Twelve Days of Texture Wonderful Magic. While on this magical vacation, I loved the way every building and every street corner was filled with light from beautiful lanterns. Oh, the magic of light!

Day 6 of The Twelve Days of Texture

My reasoning went something like this: I needed to print a receipe on how to roast pecans. I needed to participate in Kim Klassen's Day 6 of The Twelve Days of Texture using her more magic texture.

I found a picture I had taken last week at a local pecan orchard of bags filled with 100 pounds of just-picked pecans. So I simply layered Kim's texture over my picture, used the screen blend mode, adjusted opacity, layered with solid white color and adjusted opacity again to my liking....typed the recipe and printed my card then posted to Kim's linky!

Day 4 of The Twelve Days of Textures

Edward is Kim's texture choice for day 4 of the twelve days of textures.

It took a lot of searching, but I finally found the picture that Edward made picture perfect!
Also added to Lisa Gordon's The Creative Exchange.

From whence it came: The HuMan doesn't even pretend to slow down while driving! I get 'em on the run - occasionally missing what I want to shoot - in this case, the white house. I think I didn't click quickly enough. I'm just making the most of what my HuMan allows:::::I'm not sad....if I had gotten the house, I would have missed the trees and sky and the perfect opportunity to play this morning making something out of nothing!

I'll use this stretched version in a later playday!

Day 3 of The Twelve Days of Textures

Cosmo is Kim Klassen's chosen texture for day 3 of the twelve days of textures.

Trust me Kim: I'll take care of this texture....I love it!

from the beginning.....

{Texture Tuesday} The Number Two eDition

When one door of happiness closes, another opens;
but
often we look so long at the closed door
that
we do not see the one which has been opened for us ~

Life might be hard for some, but not for these two loafers! It took more than a camera flash to disturb this siesta~

Texture Tuesday {The Red eDition}

Kim Klassen Texture 'and then some'

She may be the feature of The RED eDition, but she's definitely in the pink! Quite by accident: as most things around me are: I caught a shot of all these feet....made my photography day!
