Hi all.

I hope I was not misleading with my lettuce flower picture from my previous post. Nope. I don't live somewhere dreamy and warm. That picture was taken during the summer. My back yard currently looks like this!


The past few days have seen quite a bit of downtime. Mother Nature has dished out a small snowstorm and a couple of viruses have chosen our house to host their latest party. With the weather outside being frightful, I've been spending a few stolen moments doing something delightful!

I have been rediscovering photoshop thanks to Kim Klassen and her awesome Skinny-Mini course. She offers several other great Photoshop courses as well and is a wonderful teacher! She also offers textures and tutorials. You really must check her out.

Here's an example of what I have been up to.

The picture from last post...






The picture with textures added and played with. I also added a quote from John's E-book My Eternal Journey which you can find more information about at the bottom of his blog page.



 How cool is that?!?!?!!!!!

What great photographs and thank you for the mention.

Sorry to hear the viruses have been having a party. Hard to imagine that there are still warm parts in the world when one sees the snow. Fortunately of course I live in one of them so I can really appreciate the snow at a distance.:)

That is great. I love the chosen quote. John says it simple yet elegant.
