Day 16...Just a Whisper

This photo means the world to me.  When Kim asked us to come up with a photo reflecting "whisper", the first thing I thought of were my babies when they were little and taking naps. It was a constant Please Whisper for several years in our house.  But being that was long ago I decided to use a friend of mine's flower bouquet for her wedding as my Whisper submission.  I know her Mom was whispering from Heaven the day her Daddy walked her down the aisle.  Funny thing is, MY Friend said that she would NEVER get married.  That's one of the reasons I don't use the word NEVER....because inevitably it can.

Day 14--black and white with a touch of color

Going Green--I snapped this shot at a friends house sitting in her window sill were all sorts of cute and cool green things for her bunko group.  I was there helping her prepare because well....she's a little high strung!  I ran a few black and white free actions in which I had downloaded but didn't care for the way the the looked and plus, I couldn't figure out how to see the rundown of the recipe's.  So I used the old turn the photo into black and white, adjusted the levels and colors I wanted brighter or darker and then brought back some of the color.  At first I was only going to do the flower, but the pretty green pears looked so sad not getting any attention drawn to them so I brought back some of there color as well.  I put a texture over the photo (don't remember which one) to draw attention to what I intended to be the focus of this picture.

Day 6 lets make a story board...or 2

I'm not gonna lie....my life has been pretty depressing the past couple of weeks. I lost a very dear friend and just haven't found my happiness and joy again.  But I will and I will keep posting.  So here goes nothing!



The Guardian Angel Visor Pin I received from Cindy's Mother in law the day after she passed away.  Next to that on the top left is a picture of Cindy's hands on her newest grand baby, Taylor.  To the right of that picture is Cindy holding hands with her daughter Kayla who is fifteen and has spina bifida.  In the middle row is a picture of Cindy's foot with the tattoo that I am going to get in remembrance of her, but mine with have the teal ribbon for ovarian cancer somewhere in the design.  The next picture are of some flowers I took from her funeral cascade.  On the bottom left is the Wings of Hope for Ovarian Cancer.  And then finally is a picture of me and my friend about a week before she passed on.  


This story board is made up of the glowers and guardian angel pin...but also on the bottom left my daughter brought me a card to cheer me up and on the bottom right is the coffee mug and card.

Day 4 of Beyond Layers

I"m so far behind on my projects for Beyond Layers...I'm trying to catch up now. I had so much fun working with Day 4 I couldn't stop myself so here are a few of my favorites from that day.

Week 2...My Story Continues

This week we were asked to continue our story with a 6 word memoir.  So, here's one of mine!  It is what I have to remind myself everyday to do with life being hurry up and stop.


New Blog

I have spent most of the day trying to get a new blog up and running.  With being in KimKlassens BeyondLayers class, I want a place for only my photo blogs and my 52 weeks of getting to know the peeps who are also in the class. I'm struggling in getting this one up and running, but I refuse to give up.  If you are reading this and from the class please follow me on this blog.  I will try to put it in a page by itself on my OneDayAtATime blog, who knows how long it will take more to figure that out.  I am doing this so that I can keep my classmates close since there are so many of us who are participating.  Good Luck to each and everyone of you, my BeyondLayers friends.  I look forward to getting to know you all by years end.  Angie
