Photoshop stuff

This is some stuff I've done for my Adobe class. Its a lot of fun! I use a book and go through the projects with the images provided by the book and then do the projects over again with my own images (and usually with my own spin). So, the techniques, and most of the time formats/ideas aren't my own. These are my favorites so far. 

I did the text and the whole mirror thing when Christian said I should add the cracks to the 'mirror'. So that was his idea!

 This is supposed to look like its a miniature or toy model by blurring the background and foreground a bit.

Farmer's Market

I love baking and had always thought it would be so cool to sell baked goods at a farmer’s market or bakery. Unfortunately there was a law that said I had to have a certified kitchen before I could sell anything. Two weeks ago I found out that this law had been changed. I was pretty excited!  Mom and I got materials and I started baking the day before our local farmer’s market. Mom suggested I sell my tried and true recipe, Scottish Shortbread. So on Saturday morning I arrived in Charlotte with my goods, table, and canopy. It was really fun... there was a thunderstorm, I sold about half my stuff, and it was great having Mrs. Bacon right next to me! Here are some pictures of the shortbread in it's packaging. 

Assignment with a Cup and Saucer

I'm doing a lighting for photography class this semester.  This was the first assignment, photographing a white cup and saucer. These are the pictures I submitted and some other ones I didn't submit. :)

My Fiber Owl

I was first exposed to the fiber arts when my mom became interested in felting and creating with wool. Before then I had sewn and created things with fabric or textiles in general but I had never done anything with wool. This is a fiber owl I made a while ago for my Mom. He's the first piece of "fiber art" I've created and it was a lot of fun! He's made with wool felt, wool roving, and burlap. I did some needle felting, hand sewing, and a little embroidery.
And my sisters make super cute things...the little owl on the bottom is something Evy made for me. He's going to be a key chain or a cute decoration for a purse or bag.
