spring time
i AM busy these times, but not so much with things i could show here. i´m planning my new kitchen i will get in august, i´m working on a photo-book (a guide for stockholm, where i plan to go in june)… all very time consuming. so not much time for cut&paste&paint. BUT: great news from my kitchen planner… i can cover the glass on my wall (about 50 cm x 2,20 m) with prints of my own photos!! and it is not even expensive!! costs even less than covering it with RAL colors. hooray!!
but for today a photo i made on tuesday, the ONE really sunny day of last week – a forsythia blossom (>SPA). i edited it for the time-theme at take a word, adding a scan of an old moon calendar. layered kim klassen´s “word” texture twice for TT.
nicht viel los hier zur zeit, v.a. nichts “handgematschtes”. bin sehr beschäftigt einerseits mit meiner küchenplanung (soll im august installiert werden), außerdem arbeite ich intensiv an einem fotobuch (einem reiseführer für stockholm, wo ich im juni hinfahren möchte). sehr zeitintensiv… ABER: heute gabs tolle neuigkeiten von meinem küchenplaner: ich kann die glaswand (ca. 50 cm x 2,20 m) mit eigenen fotos (oder gescannten collagen oder was auch immer) bedrucken lassen!! und das noch gar nicht mal teuer, billiger sogar als wenn ich es mit einer RAL farbe bestelle – ist das nicht suuuuuper?!!
aber für heute gibt´s erst mal ein frühlingsfoto – geknipst am einzig richtigen sonnentag dieser woche, am dienstag. die blüte qualifiziert es für SPA, das zeit-thema steht bei take-a-word auf dem programm, und kim klassen möchte bei TT einfach nur eine ihrer texturen sehen…
anemone nemorosa – buschwindröschen
the flower is placed on a skinny (3×5 inches > take a word challenge) piece of ledger paper and layered with kim klassen´s little things texture. custom made brushes added.
i love it when the ground in the forest is covered with thousands of these pretty little flowers!
texture tuesday: soft
for this one i used kim´s textures annabelle, providence and if only.
pink
one of the most wonderful pinks (in my opinion) is the color of the european spindle tree. here i layered it with kim´s texture ugglove and nancy donaldson´s new billboard#4. black & white
the photo with the magpie claws has textures from kim (ugglove), a new one from nancy donaldson (billboard 2) and one from shadowhouse (film3)
on the other b&w photo i set the withered remains of heracleum at inverted… don´t they look like spiders?texture tuesday
with three textures of kim: lola (inverted), lifesgood & if only
and because i worked out (by layer masks) one snowdrop, it is eligible for the-three-muses challenge of the week, too.
texture tuesday – happy heart texture
kim´s texture happy heart applied 3 times + “inspire” text brush, also from kimtexture tuesday: white
theme at TT is white for this week. i took two photos of a birch: one with the bark and one of the tree without leaves.
recipe: added kim´s if only texture three times (twice in soft light blending mode, once in linear burn at 28%). then came the tree with blending mode luminosity (35%) and a levels adjustment layer. font viner hand itc.
texture tuesday: felicity
kim´s texture felicity layered twice (blending modes difference and darken) on top of a photo of exotic fruit.
