Texture Tuesday for May 30

Ok, it’s not quite a garden but I live on an Arizona rock farm and this is much nicer than my yard. What could be more welcome than water in the desert? A tiny rivulet dances in the dappled light; a cottonwood’s leaves twinkle and shimmer in the desert sun, roots quenching a deep earth thirst.

I used the same texture twice, “Yesteryear”, the first layer is multiply 42%, the second is soft light 72%. Check out the textures at kimklassencafe.com !

Happy Tuesday!

Texture Tuesday for May 17th

The theme for this Tuesday is vintage – the picture was taken in Jerome, Arizona, a former ghost town that still has a few ghosts. If the door opened it would go under the highway now, but a grand building once stood here. I used the textures “Believe” multiply 80% and “Pour vous” multiply 60% over the central portion of the image – so there’s a little bit of handwriting on this old wall.

Happy Tuesday!

Texture Tuesday

Yes, there’s a mouse in my teacup. When I was setting up for the photo Miss Mousey had to jump in the teacup and with her vintage handbag. There are two textures – “Life is Good”  multiply 49% and “Warm Sun” multiply 72%.

 

Here’s the Parisian version of the photo, Miss Mousey likes things a la francais. The flourish is Rhonna Farrer’s Swirled Corners from Two Peas in a Bucket 

 

Finally, the mid-century modern version with vintage plastic, the texture is “Love” multiply 60%.

Happy Tuesday!
