Collage Obsession Weekly Challenge - Color - Honeysuckle

“In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going – perfect to ward off the blues,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Honeysuckle derives its positive qualities from a powerful bond to its mother color red, the most physical, viscerally alive hue in the spectrum.”

Collage Obsession Weekly Challenge-Vampyrs

Countess Elizabeth Báthory de Ecsed (Báthory Erzsébet in Hungarian, Alžbeta Bátoriová in Slovak; 7 August 1560 – 21 August 1614) was a countess from the renowned Báthory family of Hungarian nobility. Although in modern times she has been labelled the most prolific female serial killer in history, her guilt is debated. She is nevertheless remembered as the "Blood Countess" or "Blood Queen."

Self Portrait...

This is a self portrait I did using Photoshop Elements 9 and a free 30 day trial program called PhotoFrame Pro that I found at ononesoftware.com . The picture of me was taken by my husband . I loved the PhotoFrame Pro program , on my wish list .

First post...

First post in my blog ..... Soooo excited to be here ,  and to have taken this first step . Looking at and reading all the wonderful blogs out there has been a great inspiration to me and it has given me the courage to go where I have not been before . I have always been a creative person , doing a little bit of this and a little bit of that . And just recently started doing digital art . I have been using a free program called Paint.NET and Microsoft Office Power Point to do my art in .  Just bought a  Photoshop Elements  9 program and I am in the process of learning how to use it ,  not so easy . Thinking of taking some classes at the community college to learn the Photoshop Elements 9 program , and maybe a good workshop online . Once I learn how to use it I hope it will take me to that next level . I am here to have fun and hope one day I will inspire others . So I hope you will follow me in this journey and leave a comment if you will.....
