Layout I created in the spirit of Maggie Taylor. It came so easily and it is so very me and persons who know me well will agree. Credits: Holliewood Studios Beasts of Burden, Mr Whiskers Steampunk, Hidden Vintage Studios Red Headed Stepchildren, Christina Renee Glass Negatives
Macaroni Joy Not sure why she's on the bench: she may be waiting for a bus, or just taking a rest...but whatever the reason, this little macaroni penguin is certainly enjoying the sunlight.

Colorburst
Can't believe it's been 3 months without a creative muse to tap me on the shoulder. Have been playing every so often but never came up with anything satisfactory. This colorburst challenge was fun and though i'm not totally happy with the results, it's time to share something or else i fear i'll never get out of this funk. I started with an Adobe stock image:
then grabbed some overlays and textures, some butterfly and parrot images...

so, hopefully this will quell what ails my right brain and i can join you all again.

Trying hard to get back into creative mode and decided to just jump in. Some Bowie for the emotion and some magic flow for the colors and blending. Thanx all for stopping by :)

My Duncan is 6 months old, he's 45lbs. He can easily help himself to anything in the sink, on the kitchen table, or counter tops...how time flies! This is his second big boy poodle cut :)
This would have probably fit well for the "quirky me" challenge too since this page reveals my long standing but little known aversion to blue tableware or dishes. The first I let anyone know of it was as an adult when visiting my parents' home. My mother had a stray dish that had blue flowers about the edge and she set it at my place on the table. I cooly switched with her and quietly stated, "we don't eat on blue". She thought me odd and just let it pass, when actually i'd have invited a fun discussion on the topic. Oh well, here it is again and all i have left to say is that there is no food that a blue plate compliments. I cannot think of a naturally occurring blue food and a blue plate does not match with any common food. Blueberries are not blue: they are purple. My opinion was reinforced while watching the first Bridget Jones movie when she accidently made blue soup. All her guests were quite playfully amused but nonetheless lost their appetites when served.
When you click on this video it will prompt you to click to continue to YouTube to see the clip...it's safe, the author just wants you to visit his site for advertizing. You'll see Bridget's blue soup...after the first peek, move up to 2:40 and see her friends' reactions to the soup... it's not hilarious but definitely good spirited and cute.
As always, thanx for stopping by to take a peek :)
For months now, I've had this sweet tooth that hasn't met even a bit of resistance... I'm fully aware how bad all that sugar is for me... Having always been a light-weight, I rationalize that the calories don't matter, empty as they are, and decide to delay improving the poor nutritional choice I've made. Oh well, I'll worry about it tomorrow... As always, thanx for stopping by :) peace, pam

My creative side is still on strike and had the darndest time using "music" to inspire me. Well, the best i could do was a band's name, Three Dog Night, from the late 60's-70's. And yes, those are dog bone trees in my layout :) . Anyway, the band was not my favorite but they were popular and had a few hit singles. I had some fun doing it and i think that's the point, and i was not going to give up! Here's are a few hits from the band. Think I like the 2nd one best...it's kind fun :) :
This is my second Pocket Letter and still as interesting to do as the first. In case you've not heard of pocket letters, it's a relatively new activity that started in this past winter and is taking off across the paper craft/mixed media. You can see more here at some YouTube links:
...and a few of the ATC cards from the pocket letter, close up:

moth visitor
not getting about as much with the camera but did some shooting in the yards today. Got a nice macro of this little guy, sitting on one of my milkweed plants. I found out it's called a Speranza pustularia - Lesser Maple Spanworm Moth.
As always, thanx for stopping by to take a peek :)
