Flowers, Clothespins and Cards

Hello there.  Hope you had a nice long weekend.  Mine was good...just a little of this and a little of that.  My son starts back to school today, so I'm looking forward to having a routine and getting back into blogging a bit more.  I always feel like I'm going every which way during the summer, don't you?

Anyway, I thought I'd take some photos of a few odds and ends.  Nothing that really goes together, yet some how does, if you know what I mean.  I gathered up some old postcards, a tole letter holder, a grainsack and, of all things, clothespins.  Of course, I had to add some flowers too, hydrangeas, since I have an abundance of them...and just so ya know, I'm sure there will be more to come in another post or two :)

I'm joining up with Kathleen's White Wednesday and also Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday since I haven't linked up to a photo party in awhile.  I'd like to take part in more photo challenges to improve my photography and editing skills...there's so much to learn and not enough time.

All of these photos have three layers of Kim's cracker jack texture in hue, darken and soft light.  I also used the milk and honey action from Florabella.  I've never tried using hue to adjust a texture before, soft light is my usual mode, but I thought I'd mix it up a little today.  I like how everything came out with a nice crackly vintage look.  The first and last photos are my favorites.

Well, that's that.  I'll be back later this week, so until then...have a good one :)
