Not to my knowledge. To me it's just a local roadside historical marker.

Really nice! Is that some sort of tracker that Poncho is wearing?

The font for the title at the bottom is Broadway and yes, it is my birthday today.

Here is my Lesson Five - Lady in White (A local tall-tale) The title font is Horror Story and the other is Imprint MT Shadow.

Corrie: Forgive me for changing the subject but I wanted to show you what I found in a Marisa Lerin "For the Love of Cats" bundle that I just purchased. An entire folder of Dutch word art.

I guess I'll post this one here, too, as it fits the theme. I already posted it in the Mask Workshop. Since I'm an only child, I don't have any siblings though I did wish I had some when I was young.

Yes, Suncoast features Woody Harrelson and Laura Linney. Blue Bloods has Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg.

A small project I've been working on to populate my new 32" monitor. I'm using the cass-painted-frames and I've made one for Cable or Streaming TV shows and a separate one for Streaming Movies. For the Movie one I went and found a film strip and duplicated it all over the place on top of the color painted frame strips. Here is one I did for my Friday Blue Bloods TV show and another for the film, Suncoast, which I will watch tonight on Hulu.

Wow, Lynda, congrats! I love the name, Caspian. I'm just the opposite that photos I get through Messenger are pretty much all I use, and they look good to me. I do have it on my desktop so I can download straight to my hard drive. And I don't do a Save As, I open each file up and use the download icon top right. Not sure if that would make a difference or not...

LESSON FOUR - MY CHILDHOOD HOME - I didn't get to do this in January so I used it for this mask lesson. The title fonts are am_intex for the decorated ones and Before the Rainbow for the san-serifs, treated with an inner bevel and shadowing. I found the bearded iris with Google Images and removed the background. The background paper is from Circle of Life mega kit.

That's great, Harmony! The font is outstanding! 👀

Beautiful, Lynda. Did you intend to use the large photo on an angle like that or did it get tilted when you angled the frame? It makes me tilt my head when I'm looking at it. 😉

Emerald, this would be better, I think, if when you are selecting the pattern in the materials palette for your floodfill, you reduce the size to 50% or even less. See if that improves your opinion of kaleidoscope.

Around here it was applied to telephone poles to protect them from rot in the ground.

I forgot how interesting the kaleidoscope effect is! This was a little plant given to us when we attended grandchild Jackie's wedding. Her hubby is a horticulture enthusiast and he had put out baby succulents for us to take home that day. Originally it was 1/4 the size of this. One of my few successes with a houseplant. It did stay outdoors all summer. The title font is Vivaldi, the journaling font is Copperplate Gothic, the mask is cass-SimpleArtsy-Template01.

Beautiful, Corrie! I seem to recall Creosote having a strong smell. Does the bush have an odor, too?

Doska, that is a very amusing story! 😆 The description of the wedding dress sounds much like the maid-of-honor at Will's wedding. Here she is with the drum. The bride is on the left and the groom on the right. The officiant is just behind her.

I did too, Doska, at my grandson, Will's, "hippie" wedding in California. It was held on the bank of a river and the bride arrived by boat.

I was born the same year WWII started and manufacturing was all for the war effort, so my grandfather had to construct a wooden sled for me to fly down the nearby steep hill. I found this stock photo at Deposit Photos with a Google search and it looks very similar to my Red Sled. 😊 I kept it for years and used it as winter decor when my daughters were young; propped up outside next to the front door with a pile of fake snowballs in front of it. 🙃

My Lesson Two - It's a Party! This occurred Saturday, Feb. 10, though his birthday was on the 6th. I used the same old template as last time. Discovered some strange layers. 😁 It happens when I'm struggling with masks, especially if they're in French! 😆 I created the plaid, and the balloons are a template from Marisa Lerin. I do struggle to align photos in a mask that is on an angle. I tried the Free Rotate tool but didn't see much change with it. Is there a trick to it?

Lesson One - Magic in Colorado (with her dad, my grandson, Will) trying out an Arctic Cat snowmobile, called a "Kitty Cat" and her first skis. Background paper, Marisa Lerin; font is Mama.

Corrie: I was inspired by your flower photo, so I did another one of my moth orchid, but as a closeup this time. Then, being on a roll with my iPhone in portrait mode, I also shot my succulent. (I will have to find out the variety before I use it in this challenge.) That is the extent of my house plants; I do not have the greenest of thumbs. 😉

Amazing what a difference when you mirrored the portrait. Love it!
