Happy Halloween!

We had a costume contest at work today and I designed the certificates. There were 3 prizes, "most likely to make small children cry", "most likely to cause a funny bone injury" and "most likely to have costume used in a movie". I think this certificate was the best of the three. (There were some great costumes as well.)

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween!

Window

Can you believe these gorgeous old windows are on the outside of a department store? They use them to display trinkets, makeup, etc… I just had to take a picture and use it to display something beautiful!

Camera Blues!

So, as life generally goes...my camera went kaput while I was on VACATION and most of my photos were awful. The shutter started to go out on my 2nd day with my sister and her family. By the end of the trip, every picture I took had way too much contrast and all these white lines running through them. I was so disappointed. This photo could have been one of the best pics I’ve ever taken of my sister and her kiddos...but instead, it was a mess. I tried making it look better with a few photoshop tricks – here are the results. Not too bad hugh? It helps that I had beautiful scenery and picture perfect models!

Well, now it’s time to go camera shopping. I guess I can’t complain too much…a new toy is always fun! ;o)

Big Mouth!

May I present to you {Big Mouth} designed in honor of the poor guy at work opened his BIG mouth and said something very "un-team player like" at work today. I felt bad for him because you could tell he didn’t think before he spoke and I’m sure he was very embarrassed. So, this one is for him & anyone else who has ever said something and immediately wished they could take it back.

Have a great weekend!

Boo!

I got back from my trip to visit my sister and on my desk at work was a little bag of candy with this really cute poem. I have no idea who left it, but it’s such a fun idea that I decided to share it with you all. Here’s my design with the poem…feel free to copy and spread the fun!

New Truck!

My hubby got a new truck a couple of weeks ago & I made this collage for his computer background. It turned out pretty cool so I thought I would share. The cool skulls and swirls designs are something I found on line and couldn't wait to use. Since SD thinks skulls are tough, it worked out perfectly!

I'm going to visit my sister and her boys tomorrow so I probably won't post anything until I get back to town on Tuesday. Talk to you then.

Blog Action Day - the environment


Today we've been asked to support the environment in our blogs. Through art, poetry or by sharing our thoughts, bloggers from around the world joined forces to show our support for the earth. {I've included a nature picture.} I like this quote - my goal was to find a serene way to display it. I hope you enjoy.

No photo

No photo today. Every time I try to upload an image, I get an error message. Darn.
Have a good weekend!

Fall is here!


My sister took this picture of my nephew last year. I thought it would be fun to play with the colors and look what happened!

First Post


This is my first blog...and just like the rest of my life, I don't have much time so I've got to hurry up! Here's a collage I made on a whim for a friend of mine (Griselda) who came to town this weekend. I haven't seen her since February so I was pretty stoked. Griselda, Wendy, SD and I had dinner and margaritas at my house. It was fun.
I started learning the Adobe creative suite for work...and now I'm hooked. I am actually thinking about going back to school to sharpen my skills. I'll keep posting my projects and you can tell me what you think.
Until next time!
