Look what you can do after spending a couple hours downloading and adding and playing with photoshop! I am so excited I just had to share! So my friend Katie is huge about "Actions" these are things that you add to photoshop and then just hit a button to get a funky fun look. And well I have had info to learn how to download and use these things forever, just hadn't found the time. Actually, photoshop sort of scares me, I am way to used to how easy picasa is and well I'm just lazy. Today I found some time, Kaleb helped, he was home sick and sitting in my spot watching TV during my down time, so I had to look for something else to do. Boy are actions fun!!!! There are tons of free ones out there and I downloaded 7 or 8 color type ones. This photo of Linds uses a "Denim" action, then I played with the border in Photoscape (thanks Julie for turning me on to that), and added another effect. I totally love how this looks, and I had to share my reward for hanging in front of the computer all day. Check out the CoffeeShop blog for some great free actions and lots of good info for the photoshop challenged like me!

I was tagged!

Here's what you are looking at...

this is the sixth photo, in the sixth folder on my computer.

What is this disaster, one of the many test shots taken to get the half way decent shot that was in my Christmas card this year.

Yeah and just so you know this is a totally unedited photo. Enjoy all the crazy shadows and bad lighting.

I really wish that this would have been something more fun, but alas I move all my photos onto my external hard drive and all that's on the computer are somewhat current.

Thanks for tagging me Katie! I really do need to work on keeping this thing more up to date, but really it's hard when I am trying to do this, facebook, emails, children, dishes, laundry... well you get the point.

Ok so I am suppose to tag six people, but I think Katie already tagged everyone I would, so if you are reading this and you want to post the 6th picture in the 6th folder on your computer go ahead and do so and let me know!
