It's that time again. Another Fix it Friday over at I Heart Faces. I have seen this photo on Amy's site just the other day, and I thought it was lovely. But, I have been dying to do one of those dreamy pastel edits that look so sweet. At my house these days, there aren't any more tea parties and pastel settings to be had. *sniff* I can just imagine my two big girls rolling their eyes at me now. And the boys...fuhget about it! So, this was my chance! I had so much fun playing around with this sweet image. And just for good measure, I added a little texture around the edges. This is (mostly) warm grunge, one of the freebie textures from Kim Klassen. LOVE them. Head on over to the website for more edits on the same image.

On Monday and Tuesday, I<3 Faces hosts a photography challenge every week. Here is my entry for GO RED. I just happen to have a recent photo of a little boy on a red carpet. Where do you find a red carpet? At a church, of course. Most folks don't get naked in the worship center, but we went there for this one. He is actually on a prayer shawl that was made for him by some of the ladies in the church before he was born. So, for this family, it is a meaningful place to have his baby photos made. Check out some other entries here:

This week, I was determined to streamline my blog stalking and emails, rss, etc. But now I have something akin to the flu. All bets are off. I can't sleep, so why not catch up?

I have set up a new shop on Etsy. I am selling some of my non-portrait work. (Since very few people would be interested in buying a portrait of someone else's child! LOL)
They are different collections of nature and architecture photographs which have been edited and textured to give them a more artsy, personalized feel. Anyone who would like to check them out would be most welcome. I am new to this SEO, storefront, world. http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheBarberShoppe 1. I try to stalk more blogs than I can remember, constantly confusing myself and feeling behind.
2. I never ever go to bed when I say I will---always add at LEAST 30 minutes, if not 3 hours. 3. I have recently been listening to Bluegrass music on satellite radio. (MUCH to my kids' dismay.) 4. I am writing this entry because my computer died and lost the informative and well researched entry i was typing earlier. 5. I am fairly certain that no one will ever read these! 6. I spent over an hour today wandering around in Office Depot, because I had trouble making decisions. Even in the ink pen department. 7. I am an absolute sucker for buying stationery, even though I almost never write letters. 8. Occasionally, I will send someone a note, just as an excuse to use some cute stationery. 9. I am super excited because my 3yr old son is spending the night with his Mimi. And, I convinced my husband to run the 7 am "school bus" shuttle in the morning. In case you are not a mom, I will spell this out....I get to SLEEP LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10. I am fighting a losing battle against the new single spacing after a period rule. I cannot bring myself to hit less keys. Maybe I will try the informative, well-researched post tomorrow :) |
