Spring Almost Gone.... Photography and Hobbies

PHOTO HOBBY

Ohhh... the span of time .... where has it gone?  .... but now I am back with my camera and creating new photo cards.  I have some great new cards with a little different twist using watercolor and pencil strokes for photo editing. The notecards are still being packaged in sets of five with the original photo on the back of the notecard and blank inside.  I call this one The Spring Fruit Tree Blossom.  

I now have my notecards in two local shops, the UPS Store on Hwy 105, Montgomery, TX;  and The Compose Rose gifts and art shop in Montgomery on Butler Street.  Be sure to check them out and tell them I sent you.


MORE HOBBIES
I have also been out pickin' junk or treasures at local auctions and resale shops for some fine things to flip.  Here I have a card game I found called Skeeter with bugs on the cards vintage in the '60's.  I will post other items as I get the items cleaned up and photographed for you.

All in all, I am becoming quite the hobbyist.  What hobby do you enjoy?  I am thinking of making posts about the art work and re-purposed junk as part of my blog. Tell me what you'd like to see or share.  I want to start keeping it more up to date, so feel free to post/comment to keep it going.

Fall Series

In this series, kaleidoscoped images of things found in nature bring the colors of fall to life. Cheryl has found a way to beautifully capture the essence of fall in images that go beyond the typical theme of fall leaves.

The images in this gallery show both the front and back (which shows the original photo) of the notecard. Click on one the thumbnails below to see a larger view. Then, to see the next image, just move your mouse to the right side of the picture until the word "next" appears and then click.
