Amanda: Actuall...So many comments so little time! <br />Amanda: Actually that makes perfect sense, I've seen people do their nails that way. <br /><br />everyone: Thank you! You guys always boost my confidence in the best way! <br /><br />Tash: You are welcome any time! Heck bring the whole TST crew! The house is smallish but the yard is huge, we have a grill, a deck, a fire pit, an outdoor dart board and most importantly a husby who likes to cook. :) Also of importance are 2 new kittens with very cute attributes.SalvagedExpressionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06735098369082767943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-8904720333423285612010-06-25T07:05:23.025-07:002010-06-25T07:05:23.025-07:00Sal - I NEED to be on your doorstep.

We need to meet, laugh and drink beers in the summer evening...you know I need that with everyone here. We need a TST party!<br /><br />Amanda - your comment on my work just blew me out the back door. Thank you, thank you, thank you....I still battle the IC from time to time but I'm addicted to this art - something is happening but you know what I see that in your work as well...I think our own class did something to us LOL...<br /><br />Trina - thank you I finally got techcnology to cooperate...yesterday technology hated me today we are friends! <br /><br />Felicia - you just made me laugh SO freakin hard. While I do sit around and rub my belly like Homer Simpson the world around me is just a buzz with activity...I catch contented moments when I can though - usually when I'm in the bathroom LOL sorry if that's too much info but really that's the only time I'm alone LOL<br /><br />Aqua~ how was your trip?? Hope you are enjoying the company - we missed you. It's so nice to see you hear cheering and hanging. Hope to see your work in here soon...till then have fun!! And yes Doodle 2 will be here soon...he or she is having a lot of dress rehearsals though<br /><br />Sooo just so you all know my Mom is in the hospital - she will be fine! - she needed surgery, a friend was diagnosed with cancer and the baby is kicking my butt...that's my life right now ..crazed BUT I have soo many moments of joy - coming here, hanging with my husband and daughter, friends (that includes you all!!) but if I am delayed or distracted or haven't written back please know it's not you...I will be in touch more...it's just been a little rollercoaster ride. <br /><br />BIG hugs to you all now get outside and play :)Natashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14700445200303617499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-51141000392752723202010-06-25T06:54:37.275-07:002010-06-25T06:54:37.275-07:00Hi, hi, hi!!!!!!!

I was a little bummed because I wasn't able to really grasp how to capture the sparkles on the tree. Actually Felicia, you are the Photoshop guru, what is the best way to photograph or highlight sparkles in a piece? <br /><br />Ok, I LOVE all of you - just look at your work. <br /><br />Sal - not only do I WANT your earrings but my daughter went bananas for them. She watched me load them in yesterday and kept asking - "Do you want them Mommy? I do. Let's get them." Amanda said it right - they are so rock n' roll. The jewelry pieces you've been creating are sensational - the ring, now the earrings - are you loving this work or what?? Because it shines!!<br /><br />Felicia - your photos are visual eye candy!! I LOVE them just as I love that you got to be a kid again...you captured such fun, vibrant color and magic in these photos. I have been over each of them several times but my favorites are the Slip and Slide and Look Up because they are so colorful and visually interesting I kind of get lost in them. Also, I want you to know it's just fabulous to see you back here. I've REALLY missed you!!! We all did :)<br /><br />Amanda - your work stirs me...I mean really sets fire to my imagination. I'm once again in love - this piece is pure magic. You have the most amazing eye for color and the detail on that bird sends my mind on this fantastic voyage of flight....it's breathtaking. You have harnessed something powerful in this new work Amanda!! I'm loving this...<br /><br />Trina - you have no idea how good it is the have you back...I mean really!!! Having a chance to spend time with your creations each Thursday is such a treat. Loop the loop is so awesme...I love the colors you chose but even more so I love the way it works. It's the epitome of fun! And much like Sal's earrings these are needed in my house - my daughter and I are in love with the colors...I mean these are just pieces of adorableness hands down.

It's hot here today--I could go for that big slide!<br /><br />Trina: your Ferris wheel earrings especially made me smile. Those would perk up any outfit. You have such a way with color.<br /><br />Butterflies--ooh, I really want time to play now. It's been a very busy week, so I look forward to diving back into painting when I get a chance. :)Amanda Fall - Sprout editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04099642812544000458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-81590244806277550032010-06-24T19:49:25.502-07:002010-06-24T19:49:25.502-07:00Tasha: soo sorry to hear it's been a rough wee...Tasha: soo sorry to hear it's been a rough week. :( I hope the next is better. I'm thinking of you all the time. Please do add in your creation if you get a chance...I'd love to see it. Your recent artwork has a new sureness, along with a level of creative risk that's really exciting. I'm loving it.

I can almost hear the beat!<br /><br />Felicia: I think you got in my head somehow this week! The speed and direction are like the rollercoaster, my thoughts are like those every-which-way ducks, and I'm just as happy as if I went down one of those giant slides. Wonderful photos and great retouching.<br /><br />Amanda: I really like this style. Your marbling is amazing, and the other colors that you complimented the bird with are great.<br /><br />Tasha, So sorry you havd a hard week. I sure hope things start going better right quick. I look forward to seeing your piece when your technology cooperates.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07202818649353178012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-88432630899996075412010-06-24T11:59:03.036-07:002010-06-24T11:59:03.036-07:00Felecia: Great photos, the colors really do pop! ...Felecia: Great photos, the colors really do pop!
