Our family has always opened gifts on Christmas Eve... Our Celebration always started at Grandma Kenas with a little buffet meal and the opening of their gifts. From there we used to go out to Myrna and Connies place. (Myrna was Rodgers (older , by 3 years) sister). At some point this tradition...

Love the feel of the colors on this, popping from the more neutral background, and the tiny images to the right that draw your eye to them...sort of like glitter. I just spent 2 weeks with 2 of mine I had not seen in 2 and 3 years... hard when they are far away!

Interesting technique.. really draws you in to look... I like it.

It was certainly worth the effort. This page is gorgeous, particularly the framing. Can't wait to try my hand at this technique when I get back home next week.

Great transformation. You really made a beautiful image out of a nice photo with issues. Love the softness of it.

Beautiful... thanks for sharing your story
