Photo Creation and Monday Blog Hops

While the husband is gone to work I get to spend some time creating. Now that I have discovered textures I have been playing around with them and some pretty otherwise boring photos. Last week I decided to do something with a scarecrow picture I had taken while visiting my mother. This little scarecrow sits on her fence post in one of her flower gardens. My mother is a huge fan of The Wizard of Oz as well as I am. So this is what I came up with


I am thinking about a print, 5x7 framed for some sort of gift for my mom. Now that my husband is back at work for a couple more nights I will see what else I can come up with.

    1. For beginning I recommend Picasa, it is a free download and easy to use. It also does not take away much quality from your pictures. I also found that Adobe Photo Shop Elements and Lightroom to be fairly easy to use. I honestly will use all three of them when doing one photo.
