Violets

I made this tag sometime during the summer...taken from a cluster pack called "Sunny Daydreams" by Basima and available at Pink Paradox Productions.  The tube is called "Adele" from VeryMany Tubes . She was very easy to make and one day I'll try to list the steps I took in creating these tags.  Actually, all I added was my copyright and glitzy name tag.  The tube was duplicated twice and trimmed to fit within the frame.  I think she came out beautiful, What do you think?

I added some facebook timeline covers that anyone is free to use.  I will be adding more soon! Personalization is an option, but you must let me know the exact spelling of your name.  Enjoy whether you use them or not!

It was a very busy day at the office! I really enjoy office days that go by quickly.  Today wasn't as tiring, mainly because I didn't do any running around putting out fires. Most of my time was spent in meetings...office phone conferences and one new provider orientation that allowed me to literally stay off my feet for over an hour. My whole presentation was 10 minutes...maybe less. I will confess I am not good at public speaking. Just calI me "Hillary Clinton" . I am just as bad as she is when I have to talk in front of a crowd.  Its easier when I know the people, but strangers?  I tend to forget exactly what I wanted to say about the subject on hand.  Actually, I am a much better writer than a speaker.  Check out my story link whenever you have a chance to just read some ....ummm...naughty stuff.  

I have some great scraps to work with...so I will spend some time putting a few graphics together before calling it a night!

My Lil Pony

Really enjoyed creating this tag.  I was thinking of my daughter Ashley when I saw this pony at VeryMany Tubes.  I used a cluster frame by Kathyfrances called "In His Dreams".  The frame was built from a scrap kit by Kaymee Designs at Shabby Pickle. The cluster frame was a free gift which I found on Escape from Reality Blog.  So many beautiful frames and clusters are available free to use on this blog site!! The tube is called "Pony" by VeryMany Tubes .  I used Animation Shop to add a lil glitz to the title font, not much..which only means that I need to revisit how much glitz I do should add to the font! Always learning and re-learning. This is a very relaxing way to spend hours...time goes by so quickly. 

I also added music to my blogsite, only a few songs to start. Experimenting with the background, gadgets and widgets. 

This was the last tag I created over vacation. Back to being a bit too tired to play with graphics, but will resume over the weekend.  I have some ideas for facebook covers and tags for Halloween, which will be here before I know it.  Have a few "beautiful" witches to share!

Golden Autumn

Just love this cute cluster frame...I am not sure who created it, was given to me without details.  I added a mask and VeryMany tube to it which complimented the color theme of the frame.  The tube is called "Bunch of Roses" and can be found at VeryMany Tubes . The word art was created by me and added to the top of the white arch frame.  Everything else came with the cluster frame.  If you know the name of the artist, please let me know so I can give credit.

Whispers of Autumn

This frame was created by me, using a scrap kit from Pink Paradox Productions called Antique Autumn.  Purchase it here.  The lovely lady is by VeryMany Tubes and she is called Melanie. Drop on by VeryMany Tubes to purchase her. Don't pass up the opportunity to browse through the other lovely ladies she has created!

I placed the window frame as background first, then added a paper making it the bottom layer to give the impression of an autumn scene peeking through the window. Flowers of my choice were clustered around the bottom base of the frame and along the sides.  I added the butterfly, pine cone, and clock along with lace inserts to fill in the spaces. The word art was created by me and added to the edge of the window frame along with a bow! How does it look? I think its just perfect for the coming days of autumn.

A Moment in Time

I love VeryMany tubes...this one is called Margaret and I've set her in a frame created by Kathyfrances from Escape from Reality blogspot. It was taken from a scrap kit by Nanly Design. You can look for it here . Beautifully framed, I selected this tube to compliment the colors, without detraction in changing the color of her dress.  I added the word art and my name to the graphic.  I think it turned out lovely! 

Dark Autumn

Another beautiful tube from VeryMany called Vampire2.  I have chosen to not use the bloody fangs.  The frame is by Sly and created from a scrap kit called Mermaid by Tiny Turtle Designs.  The colors actually drew me to use this particular frame, dark greens and blues which complimented the muted tones of her dress.  Inspiration came from a tag on Leather and Lace Tuts called Gothic Thoughts. As soon as I saw the tag, I bought the tube and searched for a frame among the many I received as gifts or inherited from others.  One nice thing about using a cluster frame ?  A  majority of the work has been done and elements are easy to add.  Sly did an outstanding job with the colors on this frame.  I made no additions to it, loving the way it went with the tube as is.  The tube can be purchased at VeryMany Tubes here . The frame scrap kit Mermaid can be purchased here ,

Deeply Absorbed

Spent most of my day getting this blog set up.  I browsed quite a number of artists and was getting more and more disappointed with the results.  Just before I was ready to give up, I found this lovely blogger template by freyjasilver.  Unfortunately, I don't believe she is making these lovely templates anymore.

Tomorrow I will finish another graphic that I started this morning.  Too tired right now from the exhaustive searching.  One day I may try building these blogger templates.  I must say it does keep the mind occupied!! I actually didn't pay attention to the political world today.

Rainy day blues....go away...hoping for sunshine. Day 3 of my week vacation.
