Lonely pinecone

Photobucket

Photobucket

This pinecone is smaller than your pinkie finger and is on one of the hemlock trees lining part of the driveway.

Thanks for all your warm wishes regarding my hand. It's difficult to type but surprisingly easy to work in Photoshop becauseI don't use a mouse (I use a laptop). However, I can't hold a camera yet, so am resorting to file photos.

I got the frame action at MCP actions as a free sample after reading a post written by Donna Boucher at Quiet Life. She is always introducing me to interesting new things.

I know what I wrote inside the frames is silly, but I wrote this last night while using chardonnay as a pain reliever and this is what happens.

Dear Kate,
I love the captions, too. Besides, what fun is life if we can't get a little goofy at times? The macros are beautiful and the frames are really cool.

Feel better soon! I just now found out about your accident over at your other blog... Sending happy and healing thoughts your way!
xoxo,
Mary

used photoshop cs2 and an action i downloaded as a free sample at mcp actionsw. It creates the frame for you. haven't learned how to manipulate it yet, though,

Frames make photos so special. Those Hemlock cones ARE so tiny. We have lots of them here too. Awsome pictures!
Get better soon.

Great photos Kate. i love the framing and color. I even like what you wrote on them. They'd make a perfect addition to a children's book.
Get better soon!
*hugs*

Ah, alcohol as a pain reliever. Highly recommended. Good to know that a person can still photoshop with an injured finger!! What a nice way to pass the time.
