Birthdays and Book Covers


This weeks challenge on Digital Whisper we were to make a book cover. The book was written by Caryl Wyatt and is her story of living with an abusive husband and how she survived. The name of the book is "Look Me In The Eye"

This is the picture Caryl provided for us to use. This is a picture of Caryl that was not used by the publishers of her book. So I took this picture....

Used this background along with Anika von Holdt brushes and
an image of a transparent butterfly on a flower...

And this is the book cover I created.


Today my dear hubby turned 70 years old. Happy Birthday Darlin'


Our puppies turned 5 years old today. Look how cute they were back in 2005

Cute little pink feet and pink tummys and back then they both fit on the same little bed.

To get an idea of how small they were here is a picture of them with our cat.

Here they are today. They both weigh 120 lbs.



Just had to share this photo with you. This is Sampson and he constantly makes us laugh. He is a character for sure. I gave them some salmon for their birthday and here he is licking the platter clean. They both love salmon.

He loved it so much he just put his head right down on the plate as if to say ...is that all I get Mom?

Hope you all had a great holiday!
