All Behind Like A Cows Bottom…

Well, here we are, six prompts in at Shimelles LYPLYP Class & I’m already behind!! The first three were photographic, of which I managed two!! The third is still a work-in-progress! The last three have been scrapping challenges, possibly using the photo’s from the first three!

With the weather being so glorious & weeds threatening a takeover bid, I needed to spend this morning in the front garden, as well as getting seemingly countless loads of laundry done!!  But by noon it was soooo hot, so after lunch I retreated to the relative cool of my scrap room & logged on!!  I put prompt three on hold & went straight to number four! There were four sketches included & I did use one of them, along with a selection of the flower photo’s taken for prompt two…

10July2010 008I tried almost every room in the house to find a good spot to photograph it, to no avail, it was either too bright or there was too much contrast, so excuse the slightly washed out appearance…it actually looks quite crisp IRL!!
10July2010 011Yesterday’s prompt was about ‘keeping it simple’ with ideas & another selection of sketches…I have yet to get started on that one! 

Today’s prompt included a tutorial on how to add a title graphic to a photo. Now, I’ve got the hang of adding text to photo’s using Picassa, but this looks like a whole different thing!! I don’t have Photoshop, so I need to see if what I do have will do the same thing?!!

All in all I think I may just be playing catch up all through next week!!

I hope everyone is enjoying the weather & Thanks for dropping by! :)

That butterfly is superb and really compliments the page. You've obviously been busy in the garden if those lovely flowers are anything to go by!
