I took this a few years ago. I loved how I edited it. I used my old iPod which took crappy pictures at night. But with some of the editing apps, it was one of my favs that Christmas. It was one of our tree top angels.</div>

I had to hot glue the lid a lot! It kept leaking! <span style="color: #0b5394;"><strong>BUT</strong></span>, We still use them! I tried to do it with pictures of the kids, as a grandparent gift but the water seeped into the tape that I had wrapped around the pics and the ink ran. Yeah, that was not a keeper gift;)</div>

This is a candle holder Jason and I bought while we were in Frankenmuth in the beginning of November. We just love Yankee Candle. I love the crackle glass.<br />
<br />
I don't know if it is just my computer, but I have lines on my blog! Like a sheet of paper. On my mini Ipad, it doesn't show any lines. Since, it doesn't show on my pad, I am hoping it is not the blog itself. I swear, ever since we let the kids down load some games on our computer, it runs slow and flakes on me. We have virus protection so I know it ain't a bug.<br />
<br />
<br />
Well, if you want to play Christmas Something with me...let me know so I can check it out.<br />

Well, haven't blogged in months again. Oh dear. So, I thought maybe if I did a Christmas thing, it might put me in the mood. So everyday in December, I am going to post something about Christmas. I am going to call it: Christmas Something. Let's see what this will do. Bet ya I only do a few days and stop.<a href="http://s432.photobucket.com/albums/qq48/aprildurham23/?action=view&current=Vickie.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i432.photobucket.com/albums/qq48/aprildurham23/Vickie.png" /></a>Vickiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09096758413292331253noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8473373385697204392.post-74127643954217648812015-08-10T14:07:00.001-04:002015-08-10T14:07:30.143-04:00A Link Up For Nails!<center>

I was on face book when I saw this link up over at my friend's <a href="http://www.katiesnestingspot.com/2015/08/last-nail-files-zoya-sinful-colors.html" target="_blank">blog</a>. I wished I knew about this sooner. I am constantly doing my nails. But sadly, this is the last link up. Oh well. </center>

I did this a few weeks ago for our vacation. The pink base is OPI Pink-ing Of You. My middle finger is Sally Hansen's Big Glitter Top Coat Goldi-flecks. The gold stripes on my ring finger is Sally Hansen's Insta-dri Go For Gold. I put a few layers of top coat on my stripes. I used Essie's Good To Go. The technique I used for the stripes, I got <a href="http://pumpsandiron.com/2012/06/29/diy-american-flag-nail-art/" target="_blank">here</a>. Yup, I would have never have guess to use tape. Though, I tried using a punch to make a heart but the paint came off the tape when I used the punch...so I went for stripes. I even put a layer of top coat on the stripes the next day...just to make sure.</center>

A few years ago, I used to play FarmVille on Facebook, but some people got mean and both my desk top and my Hubs work laptop couldn't play it any more. It got to big for the puter's memory. But since April, my girls have gotten me into Hay Day. I love it and I am addicted!</div>

Still working on the weight loss. I actually gained weight between winter and now. You would think that would motivated me, but nope. </div>

Well, here I am. It has been almost two years! I redid my blog again. I do not know what I am doing. I started posting on my facebook page again but have done nothing here. What to do...what to do...<br />

Lately I have been editing like crazy again. Which puts me in a better mood.
I am back at Instagram, also doing edits. So, with another pic I took over the summer, I am going to play with my own meme, Saturday Revamp.<br />

I edited the picture with my favorite editor, Picmonkey. I did so much to it, I can't remember all the details. But, I did add a lot of the Halloween functions. Most of my ghost town edits are of a scary nature...It is a ghost town. ;)<br />

Finally figured out the new Blogger HTML. Now, maybe this will get my bloggy bug back.<br />

It looks totally different. I don't know where the section is to change my background or my margin for my header. All the words have color coordination. Just when I start to think I know what I am doing...BAM!! They probably did this to force me to pay someone to do it. Just like car manufactures. They make it harder to change your oil now, so we are forced to go to the dealer or a mechanic! Blogger...Jerks!!!! Crap!<br />

Here is my edit: I did it all with Picmonkey. I knew they had added some Halloween stuff but didn't check them all out. I was geeked when I saw they had ghostly people to play with...Awesome! <br />

Haven't been in the crafty mood for a while now. I even lost the editing bug especially on Instagram. <span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"> BUT!!</span> Yesterday I got a little crafty. Our tree in our backyard drops big and beautiful leaves. I Mod Podge both side and glued them to string. Even my husband thought it looked good. Like I say, sometimes I create crap but sometimes I amaze myself. <br />

On a different note, I am thinking of changing my blog name. Like I said , I haven't been in the paper crafting mood in a while now. There is also more to me than just scraping and stamping. Just not sure what to name it. Of course, does it matter...I have to start seriously blogging first.<a href="http://s542.photobucket.com/user/vickerles/media/winking_zpsc9428edc.gif.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo winking_zpsc9428edc.gif" border="0" src="http://i542.photobucket.com/albums/gg415/vickerles/winking_zpsc9428edc.gif" /></a><br />

Having some fun on Polyvore. I actually signed up about 4 years ago but I couldn't figure out how to use it. They must have changed cuz it seems way too easy now.
I am having fun putting outfits together (probably never buy) and I also put my Dream Lanai together.

While blog hopping, I found another photo edit challenge linky. It is called Creative License Friday with Jill of <a href="http://www.shewhocarriescamera.com/search/label/Creative%20License%20Friday" target="_blank">She Who Carries Camera</a>. The photo was supplied by<a href="http://the-rain-girl.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"> Lissa @ The Rain Girl</a>.<br />

This is what I did:<br />
Picmonkey:<br />
I added a texture from Hawaii Girl. The link I have does not work anymore. I believe it was called, bokeh blue ray texture.<br />
I then made the photo black and white.<br />
<br />
With Gimp:<br />
I added the Double Grunge Border by<a href="http://struckdumb.deviantart.com/art/Double-Grunge-Border-155468443" target="_blank"> struckdumb</a>.<br />
I then added some scratchies by
<a href="http://frostbo.deviantart.com/art/Scratches-GIMP-Brushes-274951802" target="_blank">FrostBro also on DeviantArt</a>.

This is what I did:<br />
<br />
First went to ipiccy:<br />
Auto fixed, cropped, airbrushed and added bokeh which I faded to 43%.<br />
<br />
Then went to picmonkey:<br />
I used the Daguerreotype frame-shiro which I faded to 49%. Used a sepia filter and added the Museum Matte frame.<br />
<br />

This is what I did:<br />
<br />
I went to Ribbet.com:<br />
I brought out more of the clouds and blue sky with white balance and some saturation. I tried to clone in more blue in the clouds.<br />
<br />
Gimp:<br />
Added a sun with the supernova filter.<br />
<br />
Back to Ribbet:<br />
Added a texture and used the Morocco Filter.<br />
<br />
Then finished with Picmonkey:<br />
Needed my bee:)<br />
<br />
My spring break is almost over. Crudola!<br />
