Where does the time go? It's good that it's February already -- we are that much closer to spring! And speaking of spring, this was one of my daily treasure photos that I posted to Instagram recently. I was very delighted to see seed packets in the store and I had to take a photo of them! Then I added to it in an app on my phone called Rhonna Designs. It wasn't a free app, but it lets you do lots of cool effects.
Last Friday the late afternoon sun was out, and I took a wonderful walk to enjoy the rare bit of sunshine. The photo below shows two trees glowing in the sunlight, but then I added a bunch of extra texture and color with an app -- I think the one I used was DistressedFX. Lots of cool stuff on that app as well.
On Sunday, Chicago got hit with quite a blizzard. It was also the first day of February, and my cousin made a calendar in which the February page was a wonderful explosion of lovely colors. I used an app called DXP to blend our snowy backyard tree with her calendar page, and the result is this fun treasure!
The photo below was of the full moon rising in the blue light of dusk, with tree skeletons in the foreground. But I played with it in a fun app called InstaBlender and came up with this fun abstract.
I worked on Saturday, and was perusing one of our books when I found this poem by Vachel Lindsay. I memorized this poem in grade school, and haven't seen it since, but snippets of it have been floating around in my head. It was fun to see the full poem and realize that I had remembered a good bit of it!
Today it was time to begin work on my Valentine bookmarks. Here's two versions -- both a little rough, but I think I can tweak the design and come up with something by Valentine's Day.
Wishing you sunny days and warm nights!
Love the white on black best - you go, girl! I am so impressed! Your beach trip is coming up soon, isn't it"? Praying for joy and delight for both you and Karissa
