This is my entry for a challenge in the Textures for Layers group at Flickr. The photograph of the house was provided and we can change it any way we like as long as we use textures provided by the group. The people participating are really creative. My picture is quite tame in comparison, but anyway, I summoned some courage and posted it in the challenge. Details of the textures I used can be found here: Houseboat

New header and background!

Just gave my blog an update.

Sorry, link expired.


I just designed my first kit for Hummie's August color challenge. This has been a real learning experience. Wonder if anyone will download it?

Great Blue Heron

We did our first hike of the spring spree on Saturday. On the way past the beaver marsh I stopped to watch this fella fishing while Bob went on back to the car. I almost missed him, but a woman who was also taking photos pointed him out. My telephoto lens would have been nice!

Two pages that I just did for our photo album. The background is by Shawn Headley Designs and the daffodil embellishment is by Hummie from her Soggy Spring kit.

These are two photos of my furbaby, Tessa. She is over 17 years old and getting a bit crabby, but she is still one gorgeous kitty.

Unfortunately, I don't have the names of the designers who did the backgrounds, word arts, photo masks and embellishments. I didn't write them down. Stupid of me, I know, and it won't happen again.

Happy Easter!
