feeling vintage

from my archives, newly edited.

Feeling a little vintage, and a little nostalgic for picnics in a summer field... :)

archival love

It was too hot to shoot yesterday and besides, everything outside is starting to look brown and shriveled, so I'm trolling through my archives to bring you something I haven't published before. At least I hope I haven't published this already. lol

In any case, hoping you are all staying frosty, my friends. ;)

still playing with daisies...

Just another image from my "daisies" photoshoot... :) Have a wonderful week, dear bloggers!

i can fly in my dreams

Another assignment for Creativity Boot Camp. The word prompt was "fly," and the obvious birds were not cooperating, so I thought of figurative flying and came up with this still life. I live a small, quiet life, but I can fly when I enter the pages of a good book. And I found this quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson which I love:

There are no days in life so memorable as those which vibrate to some stroke of the imagination."

Daisy May

Just playing with textures again. Nothing to report here, except more rain. Peace out.

Daisy Lovin'

I'm still lovin' the daisies lately. Mainly because they are just about the only things blooming in my garden right now.

Yes, the weeds are taking over my garden.

I'm also loving these textures from Florabella. So much fun to play with!

Happy Faces

Well, sunny days have been in short supply here in New Jersey lately. But I'm surprised to find that I'm actually starting to enjoy the soft, wet weather. (My husband's Irish grandmother used to call it "a fine, soft rain.") But I would like a few peeks at the sun now and then. :)

Wishing you sunny days and happy faces!

The Simple Things

Live, Laugh, Love. :)

Simple Charm

“The splendor of the rose and the whiteness of the lily do not rob the little violet of it’s scent nor the daisy of its simple charm. If every tiny flower wanted to be a rose, spring would lose its loveliness.”

A Big Tease

OK, so that hint of spring I wrote about yesterday?  It was just a big tease.  :(    A winter storm is headed our way, bringing up to six inches of snow.  Yuck.  

Daisy Dreams

One from the archives today.  Just trying to remind myself of early summer. We're already halfway through February, right?   ;)
