As much as I hate the background on these gears, I love how real they look.

I scanned some pocket watch gears I had laying around then made the background of each transparent. All I had left to do then was to stack them and make them look dimensional.



A couple of VIP’s in our lives have birthdays this month.

It’s the only “art” I’ve been doing lately. I had 2 dresses, a pair of shorts, a pair of capri’s and a pair of pants to mend. My girl and I are apparently hard on clothes!! Truth be told…only the capri issue was mine but she wrecked the others all on her own.

I’m planning on adding some “artistic” patches to a couple of the girl’s clothes just because the repair would be way too obvious without some sort of embellishment. I need to get some embroidery floss back from my mom before tackling the “artistic” patches. Hopefully I can accomplish my vision and share my fix with the group.


Using some custom brushes and actions, I gave my photo a whole new look.







I got some amazing shots with my little pocket camera at the Blooming Butterflies immersion exhibit at the Como Zoo.
