It will be a few more weeks before I can expect Spring flowers. My greenhouse will keep me happy until then. Thank you for stopping by.

Some are quite old, yet they bloom and survive from year to year. <br />My project is coming along well, in fact, the first shipment goes out today.

I recall seeing them in windowsills of his charming country house in Norway. Playing with these applications is actually a lot of fun and watching it develop does separate the different layers of color. <br />I can't wait to see how you are progressing with your new project.

For a long time I have been painting my cards, one at a time. Using this method makes cards less expensive and I think that most people would like them just as well. After all, Nature does a pretty good job of displaying itself.

I have a similar filter in my PhotoShop program, and have found that using it in a way that essentially breaks down the images gives me a greater understanding of what palette to use in my "real" paintings. It's a great tool, as well as a lot of fun.Mark D.

Although, like Sieglinde, above, I enjoy looking, but I prefer to have the "real thing" for a purchase and to admire more frequently. I really like the way you have displayed your tiles on your staircase, Gina!<br /><br />Mary in OregonMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04911284607089608538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305117665027937006.post-16480359838347286552014-03-11T09:56:05.119-06:002014-03-11T09:56:05.119-06:00Dear Gina,

You are so wise to take a break from painting tiles for a big project, to play a little with new toys.On top of that, how lovely of you to share your discovery with us. Of course, I do prefer the real thing...............I am just so spoiled by your way of painting.<br />Stay warm, SieglindeDahling1https://www.blogger.com/profile/01706796518280004968noreply@blogger.com
