pink or red
I know the prompt says pink or red,
but I'm giving you
pink and red.
First, the needle roll that I stitched several years ago is pink.
Second, a red heart.
I shaped this heart by breaking and placing small twigs on the ground,
then I changed the colors using the duo tone feature in Picasa.
Love
I love being outside and enjoying the beauty of nature.
kisses
These Hershey Kissesare a delicious blend of
white chocolate and raspberry.
smile
I sent my grandsons a Valentine message on Facebook.Thinking of them makes me smile.
A bell is no bell 'til you ring it,
A song is no song 'til you sing it,
And love in your heart
Wasn’t put there to stay -
Love isn’t love
'Til you give it away.

Love how you lined up the candy hearts!
ReplyDeleteall are great for the prompts, I love your needlework.
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that you made the heart from twigs and how you processed the photo. Your needle roll is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteNice photo set. Those raspberry hugs are very popular today. Well done.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed Sunday.
That heart photo is so creative! Love it.
ReplyDeleteI agree that heart photo is very creative, great post and I love your poem.
ReplyDeleteAwww, that's a sweet selfie. I love what you did with the colorization of the sticks. One kiss? Or is that the only kiss we see? I like the composition of the candy hearts perfectly aligned.
ReplyDeleteLove those candy hearts! Great composition! And your red heart photo is very cool!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! Such pretty needlework, and I love your editing work on the red heart!

ReplyDeleteOh, I am happy to continue the Valentine's Day celebration with your images - I simply adore the candy shot - love the way you set it up - very creative. And how clever to create your own heart from sticks and then convert it in post-processing! Well done! A great love-themed set.
ReplyDeleteCathy, these are all really fun. I love your twig heart. Makes me think of Andy Goldsworthy.
