Inspired by. . . the little things

Honestly, I didn't feel very inspired today.

Feeling a little flu – ish. A little punky. A little overwhelmed.

And, despite the beautiful sunshine and squirrel antics outside my window...

... a little down.

But Bonnie's Gallery opens tonight and I really wanted to be there.

So I thought I would just try. . .

 

. . . and these little guys really perked me up.

 

The_Little_Things_Vivid

Textured with Bonnie's mauve threads and the little things

 

These are the three SOOC pictures I used in my collage.

Originals

 

The mauve threads texture was used behind the images. Isn't it fabulous!

Caterpillar_Collage

 

I decided to keep playing, so I added the little things texture over the top.

The first image (above the originals) is blended in vivid light and the one below is color burn.

I couldn't decide which I liked best.

Take time to enjoy the "little things" today!

    Oh this really brought a smile to my face....I have monarch babies too and had my very first one eclose on Monday and it was so darn exciting!! I haven't even gotten to edit any of my photos yet, but you have so inspired me to try the mauve threads I have too with them! This is just so fabulous, and thank you for your continued support June! xo

    Well - if this is what you accomplish when you feel flu-ish ... can't wait to see more collages when you are feeling fine! :) All three are great, but the dark one has a richness and drama to it that I really love.
    (That is a great texture, isn't it. It makes skies look like a painting by Van Gogh. Makes me happy to see you use it.)

    Wow! Times 3...these are awesome. That texture worked perfectly with the photo's of the caterpillars. I rarely see caterpillars around here so it was fun to see them in your work. Hope you are feeling much better today.
