Thank you!!! Thank you Norma! No that is not me. That is my two older cousins. I wasn’t on the way until 6 years later!! These are from my Mom’s oldest sister who was 13 years older than she! Thank you Marijke. These are cousins. I love the retro Christmas look with Anja’s kits!

I do that all the time with the black mask and soft round brush to brush in the photo to my background and page :)

Yes I did !! I was super thrilled! Thank you again, Anne!

Thank you!!!

Thank you so much Anne! I am so excited!

Love the extraction and what a beautiful photo of that sweet pup! The tilt of it's head is perfect with that bird balancing on it's nose. The photo masked and blended in to the background is so lovely too.. the perfect colorations to accent the extraction of the pup. The wrapping of the ribbon...

Thank you so very very much! You MADE my Sunday!!!!
