Back to School -Texture Tuesday

Texture Tuesday-stop over and visit Kim's blog and check out all the posts.  Theme today is Back to School.  http://www.kimklassencafe.com/thecafe

This is my version of back to school...I love to read, and I love flowers and pearls, so I've combined them all.  I used Kim's paperscript texture on darker color at 51%, I like them minimal change, not too heavy to overpower the original photo which I liked just the way it is.

Blessing, Have a great day!  Michelle

Peony & Pearls Still Life

I used Kim Klasson texture "lola". I purchased these beautiful pearl strands at an antique shop and just love them. Peonies are from my garden. Trying to stay cool, we are having an extreme heat wave for western ny. Flowers are coming on fast this season, way ahead by about three weeks I'd say. Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs, Michelle

Sorry, I just noticed I was suppose to have a quote on these today...but it's 1:00am and I just can't go back and edit, too tired have to get to bed about two hours ago, rough getting up tomorrow.

Portrait of a Peony, loving these flowers this spring, taken lots of pictures.  Used Kim's "Sunday" texture on this one, really liking this texture a lot.

Used "Sunday" on this again too. 

Blessings, Michelle

Thank you to Kim for all the lovely 12 days of Textures with gratitude. 

Here's a couple of my Santa's that I've texturized, striving for some vintage looking postcard style.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to each one of you, my special blogging firends.  I've enjoyed posting and reading all your special comments to me this year.  Blessings for a healthy and prosperous New Year, Hugs, Michelle

Today's theme, Kim asked us to try her new texture called Phoebe, so here's my "go" at it.

November roses...from the garden.

Thanks so much Kim, for all the textures and postings, and video's you give freely...I would have liked these cropped a little differently but I was trying to only capture certain words on the book. 
Blessings, Michelle
