Fun with Photoshop

Some of my recent creations. The first one of Shawn I just did a couple of minutes ago.

Just time for some pictures. I have so many, I thought I should share. :)

We're leaving for summer vacation next week! Wish us luck. I'll be blogging during summer, maybe not as much as usual, but stick around!

corner view "collections"

Well if you don't know already, I'm the kind of person that collects lots of different things. My Mom calls them knick-knacks, my Dad calls them junk or geegaw. Little glass figures, candles, buttons, pretty stones, beads, crystals, shells from the nearby beach.

Last year when we went to Venice, Italy, we saw some glassblowing. We each got a set of little glass creatures. My brother and sister were nice enough to give me theirs because my birthday was soon after and they had collections of their own.

 

To me, collections are little irrelevant things that just make you happy every time you look at them. 

Little collections of joy!

Thank Francesca for the great topic! And for more Corner Views around the world, go to Jane!

Animals

Just some cute pictures I took of animals. :)

Whether it's your garden or another's,
you can always find something pretty to look at, or something good to eat!

Sibling Update

What ever would I do without them? I'd be so lonely. I'd feel so empty. I'd probably be way more impatient.

Best of friends since 1999. My goofy lovely pal. I can tell her anything, trust her with my life. Even though I can be a little bossy or mean sometimes, like making her touch the slimy tofu because she was being really annoying about it. :) But most of the time we're like a knot.

My giggly brother. He only poses for the camera when I tell him he can pretend to be a basketball star named Shawn Tristan. He likes to whack things really hard. Including people with a foam sword. But even though it's foam, it has a metal rod inside, so it feels like you're being hit with a bat. But that doesn't happen too much. He likes yellow, orange and red because they're the colors of fire. But mostly yellow. My favorite color used to be red and Shawn started to copy me when he was about three. So I told him that yellow was a much more powerful color because it was the color of the sun and the sun's huge. He bought it and it stuck. :)
And now, Shawn's on YouTube:  Shawn's Drumming!

We're the best of friends and will always be!
