for the LOVE of COLOR

I’m participating in a group on flickr–for the LOVE of COLOR week.

Today’s color(s): hot pinks, fuschias, raspberry.

Living in a house of boys, those colors just aren’t the norm. I thought about going outside, but there aren’t many pretty flowers around here. So…I turned to my yarn stash. I started a pair of Mary [...]

silhouettes and shutters

I’m really diggin’ the Lensbaby.

This is a fabric silhouette I made of Nathan’s cute little head, right before Andy was born. I’ve been thinking I need to make one of Andrew soon. I really want an orange one to go with my lime one. Perhaps facing the opposite direction. I’m just torn on whether I [...]

you COLOR my world!

Valentine’s Day is less than a week away! Yeah, I know, it’s a faux-holiday invented by major corporate scum to steal all our money! And blah blah blah. It’s also one of the few times a year I get to play with pink! I think I’ve said this before, but being a mom means I [...]

I {heart} Faces: best face photo challenge!

Anyway, this week they’ve requested “the face photo that you love the [...]

More shaped bokeh & a kid craft

[in black & white]

a tale of shaped bokeh

I bought a vintage cookie press from a thirft store some time last year. I thought it was cool, but I never used it and forgot about it completely until I saw THIS when browsing shaped bokeh photos. I immediately tried thinking of where I put the box that housed MY cookie press. In the [...]

365.311: new meets old

We picked up my Kodak Duaflex II from the post office, this morning (thank you, ebay seller, for shipping so promptly). I.am.in.love!

I didn’t have a contraption handy (directions printed, supplies ready, just need some time), but I think I got some decent shots with my D40. This will surely tide me over in photography [...]

Polaroid Week 2009

Did you know it was ‘Roid Week on Flickr? It started on the 2nd, Monday, and runs through Friday. The weird thing is I DIDN’T KNOW, but I pulled out my Spectra on Halloween and have been snapping photos with it since then. I’m on my last pack and what a way for it to [...]
