You Wear it Well

I used one of the flower splatters as a photomask and used two other flower splatters behind the photo using the screen blend mode. I created the frame shape in PSE15 and clipped one of the backgrounds to it and added a shadow to it.

Journaling reads: Jessica and Araya wearing the hats I gave them when they visited us on their trip back home from vacation.

Beauty and Sweet Nectar

Beauty and Sweet Nectar

Journaling reads:  The male and female Ruby-throated hummingbirds are the only ones I have seen at my feeders so far this year.  They are amazing little creatures and are fascinating to watch as they flitter from tree to nectar and back again!  Can you imagine your drinks being 1 part sugar to 4 parts water?  That is the mixture to make the sweet nectar that keeps the hummingbirds humming!
