Texture Tuesday - Simple Pleasures

Burr it's cold in NJ - 7 degrees this morning (-16 with wind chill).  Hope this lovely purple spool can warm our spirits.  It was created using kk_shine texture for my Kim Klassen Beyond Layers online class and I'm sharing it on Kim's Texture Tuesday.  I'm including a picture of the original capture, which is the true color purple.  Think I like the softer muted tones best.

Part of my New Year's plan is to participate in a 365 Day Challenge Project - taking a photo every day and uploading it to Flickr.  So far I'm on day six…wish me luck.  Stop by and check out my progress.

Stay warm.

Texture Tuesdays - Gratitude

Thought this John F. Kennedy gratitude quote was appropriate for this last week in November. When President Kennedy was assassinated I was just five years old and in Kindergarten and remember most of the details and feelings of that day even at such a young age.  What I remember most was how upset my parents were over losing their first Irish Catholic President.   

I'm sharing today with Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesdays.  Today I used Kim's new Benjamin Franklin texture, which could be my new favorite.
