Photo Hunt-Light

Overview of snowmen display, originally uploaded by DianthusMoon.

Here’s a view from above of my front bay window about 3 yrs ago. These weren’t even all the snowmen I have either. I under light the batting. Not sure what I’m doing in this space this year, depends on how busy I am.

Brian and I may go to a craft show on Saturday as it’s a big one and will be a nice day too. There’s also a large book sale going on. After we saw my uncle (alas for the last time last year), we went to the sale, though we were all shook up from seeing him looking so bad. Miss him. I brought home a picture he had drawn of Sean years ago and need to photograph it to share with you.

Photo Hunt-Waiting and Public

Standard


Waiting for her beau, originally uploaded by DianthusMoon.

I did this almost 4 yrs ago to the day with Paint Shop Pro. It’s called ‘Waiting for her Beau’ and that is actress Loretta Young (how thin she was!) I love the purple ‘wash’.She was added to the street scene.
And public….
An Artist Trading card I made featuring the movie ‘Public Enemy’ with James Cagney and Jean Harlow (keeping with the actress/actor theme).

Photo Hunt Yellow and Covered

Standard

Brandywine heirloom yellow tomato
Very yummy Brandywine heirloom. There are also ‘pear’ tomatoes that are smaller.
We have wild vines all over our yard, but here’s a creeping vine at Longwood Gardens about to cover this structure.
Metal Structure covered with vines
Here’s one from my yard about to cover my bedroom shutter.
Vines reaching up to shutter
Update-This is called a Purple Hyacinth Bean vine and I bought it from an Amish lady in Lancaster, PA.

Photo Hunt-Drink

Orangey 4" x 4" Collage card, originally uploaded by DianthusMoon.

This is a collage card I made last year, one of the first 4″ x 4″ ones. I did a woven background and used a ‘drink’ label.
This was my birthday a few years back. It’s the middle of November and I remember it being bitterly cold, like January. We almost had the Mendenhall Inn to ourselves. This was the place my high school had it’s proms back in the day (didn’t go) and always wanted to see it.
Cheers from Dianne!
I’m ‘almost’ a teetotaler, but like a nice Apricot Sour or Martini once in a while. Just had a strong Peach Martini down in Chincoteague on vacation-here it is!

Mom 1950, originally uploaded by DianthusMoon.

I use to play more with Paint Shop Pro and especially like trying to fix up old photos-digitally. This is my mom when she was about 20. The photo was in bad shape. I could work on this a little more and maybe I will soon (neck and chin look too obvious).
I’m also sharing because Mother’s Day is on Sunday. Happy Mom’s Day Jeannie girl!
