E-Cards: Nature

As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9

I created my designs using pictures of trees and flowers and critters in my backyard. Enjoy!

Thought for today:
Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it. ~ Hebrews 13:2

My collection of angels were quite challenging. Most of them I gathered from the cemetery. Hey, beggars can’t be choosers when it comes to using free images. Besides, I like a challenge and I love re-creating sculptures. If you are familiar with creating your own picture tubes, then you know the process of erasing the background and cleaning up the rough edges that the eraser tool leaves behind. I do that by using the soften tool. Then comes my favorite part: adding color and texture. Like I said, these angels were challenging. The angel on the swing (027) got deleted six times before I was finally satisfied with her!

Stand for something, even if you have to stand alone. Often times, the one who flies solo has the strongest wings.
