Having Fun, But Not in the Sun!

I just finished the last batch of jelly for the year: Rosemary & garlic jelly. I think it will be good on beef, pork or chicken & some recipes say it can be blended into gravies. It certainly has made the house smell good! I entered a couple of Pioneer Woman's photo contests, & didn't win, but her assignments made me stretch my mind a bit & try out some of the different effects in Photoshop Elements. It's still a learning curve for me, but I did create new layers for the projects and was able to blend them together so that the photos look pretty cool. Both pictures are supposed to look textured. You may have to click on the photos to see the larger version to get the full effect.

Now, since the outside work it pretty well done for the season, I've taken out my box of Femo & have started crafting a few things. I made a dragon egg for one of my sisters and a sleeping fairy for the other. I've also made a cute little garden gnome for someone, I just haven't decided who yet. I really need to start thinking about working on Christmas gifts for the little ones!
