Watercolor Garden


I liked certain aspects of this photo, but the detail in it wasn’t good, so I put a watercolor effect on it.

This wraps up what feels like a blogging marathon.  Between here and my stamping blog, Running with Scissors, I spent the better part of a day editing photos and writing blog posts.  Oh, well, it was a rainy Sunday.  I’m sure you’ve had enough of me for a while, but I hope to return soon since I plan to be more current in the future – that is, until I fall behind again.  Which is likely.  You are all so good to me, patient and tolerant of my haphazard ways.  Have a lovely weekend!

  12. What a beautiful combination - exquisite lighting and colors that only Mother Nature can put together (with Leslie's camera talent, of course) - Lulu and Wally's "pair" of shoes is darling. I have missed them. Hoping you all are doing well, Leslie. hugs, de

  13. I think we are both in our "happy places" now. I've been spending every free minute outside bringing beds back into shape after a very long, very cold winter (and please don't ask to see the inside of the house...that's a different story). It is always such a pleasure to see the beautiful fruits of your labor. Love the house color and the deck furniture. Wish we lived on opposite sides of town instead of opposite sides of the country. I'd love to occasionally sit with a cup of coffee on your deck and discuss flower varieties, soil, stamping.......
    I think we'd come up with something to talk about. :)
    Have a lovely week!
