One of my Older photos

That is still one of my personal faves. It was a warm March day back in 2008 after a really bad winter. We had snow on the ground for months and on this day almost all the snow melted away. I could feel the warm southern winds blowing in from the south but you could also feel the chill of the frozen river so one moment it felt like the heater was blowing on you and the next it would feel like a cold winter wind was blowing on you down at the Mississippi River in Fort Madison, Iowa.

Thank you, Carole!

I was the monthly winner at Art Plus. I selected some lovely greeting cards from her Etsy shop. There are so many pretty cards and ACEOs to choose from. Follow her blog and you could be the winner next month. Out of respect for her copyrights I am not posting any photos of her lovely work on this post. You'll have to go check out her shop yourself :) Thanks so much Carole! Check out her blog, Art Plus.

Chicken Eggs

These are just a couple of the wonderful eggs my lovely hens have laid in the past few days. A couple of the pullets just started laying eggs this week adding olive colored eggs to the mix. Now I get pastel green, olive green, brown, pinkish, and white eggs.

Trottin' Down The Road

I took this through the truck window this afternoon. I've added Old Letters by Playingwithbrushes to this as a texture.

Handmade Necklace


Handmade Necklace by *angelandspot on deviantART

I love this necklace. It was handmade by an artist from Ecuador. I bought it at a cultural fair in Kansas City, Missouri back when I was a student in university classes. I've placed it on one of my vintage books to photograph it. I have then added a texture from "Shadowhouse Creations"

Ship Shape


For this I took a photo I took back in the winter of 2008 and have added a texture from "Shadowhouse Creations" in the package "6 faves of mine." I changed the color of the texture to blue before using it and I really like what is added to this photo. You will find "Ship Shape" in my Redbubble gallery.
