These are some stone birds I have on my outdoor table, which I failed to bring inside before our first hard freeze after a rain. (they are inside now, safe & warm). I wanted to use some of my new texture lessons from Kim Klassen's class(kimklassen.squarespace.com/elements-skinny-mini-ecourse/ ) and a texture that I found from Ms. Bailey (www.flickr.com/photos/milesbeyondthemoon/4669404205/) .Here is the result. I hope you like it.PS It has taken me days to figure out where this file was. i could see it on Picasa but it couldn't be found on Flickr Uploader. I tried re-naming it and moving it and finally got it on my documents so I could retrieve it. For a non-techie, I have been finding solutions to my worst techie nightmares, which I suspect could be done by a computer maven in seconds! And, the worst part is , I probably won't remember what the fix is the next time it happens. YIKES!!!! PS: I also negotiated a refund from my on-line download purported to fix my computer which didn't work. I will be absent again for awhile as I have to take care of too many picture files and family.
