Dream Big!

The Texture Tuesday challenge this week is to use any of Kim Klassen's textures and the word prompt "dream".

Yep, that's me when I was a little girl.  I added Kim's "She Loves You" texture to my photo; a warming filter, wings, adhesive tape  (brush), drop shadow.  The font is "Sunshine in My Soul".  The background is "dark pages" from Playing with Brushes.

Pat...The minute I see your thumbnail I jump for joy. I cannot wait to see what you have done. This post is absolutely precious and the way you worked in the pink and the texture is divine. I have a big smile on my face. Thanks for brightening my evening after fighting a mean headache ALL DAY LONG! Hugs, Genie

Awww it's adorable!

I see you live in Naples. It's so beautiful there. I lived in Ft. Myers for two years and we would drive down to Naples every once in awhile.

sandy said...

Hi Pat, yes you are correct, it's Hibiscus. The tree/bush was just loaded with blooms. Still is actually.

I thought I would take the photo's of the "dirt" off until we are finished and then show the Before and After photo's altogether. Crazy aren't we? lol Ahhhh but I am in the AC today. We hope to have it finished this week-end! We've already done all the hard work.

Have a great week-end!
