Lovely Lynn (Her Creative Spirit) and I decided to have our own little challenge this week. We are both taking part in Kim Klassen's 'Test Kitchen' and we've been discussing subjects for digital altering. I sent Lynn some photos of my pears (we have loads ripening in our conservatory at the moment) and she sent me one of hers.
This is one of my photos which I altered using a colourful texture (one of my acrylic paint and ink backgrounds), some text and a few of Kim's textures.
Go and see Lynn's beautiful creations; she makes lovely soft digital pieces. Make sure you scroll down and see her fabulous pumpkin post. We both have our own individual styles, which is what makes it interesting.
Thanks Lynn......we must do this again! :-)
I'm very excited about tomorrow....Maggi (To Dream to Stitch) and I are going to Alexandra Palace in London for the Knitting and Stitching Show - billed as 'the best textile exhibition in Europe'! I've never been to one of these events before so its a real treat. Maggi says I need comfy shoes, a largish bag and my debit card ;-) I'm doing a workshop with Gwen Hedley called 'Take 100 Lines' (creative hand-stitching)......can't wait! If you're going there tomorrow, please look out for us!
I'll tell you more on Monday....

Beautiful! The journal page idea was fab and it looks amazing!
The textile show also sound fabulous. I arrive in London on the 17th. I will check and see how long it is on. It sounds like something I would really enjoy.
Have a great time!
Hugs,

OH MY !!!!!!! Linda, you have really outdone yourself with that journal page, I told everyone how superb your work is, no matter what you do, and I am right :) I LOVE IT!!!!!
The other one with your pears is also superb, and yes this was fun, next time I will have to step it up a notch to keep up with you :)
Have a wonderful time at the show in London, I can't believe that has come around already, and I can't wait to hear all about it.
So so so beautiful and unique work Linda.
I´ve missed my words. I love pears. Awesome digital work.
Have a lovely weekend my dear friend.
Wow you are so good with this. Love what you have created.
Have fun at Ally Pally. I don't think I will be able to make it this year. Hope you get back with bulging bags and I want to see what you got. I am very nosy lol.
I really love the pears. I think everything worked perfectly, the colours of the background with the text.It is really stunning.
Wow Linda, you and your friend have done some wonderful things. I will definitely check out her creations too. Enjoy the show, seems like everyone I know in the UK is going. Please take some pics if they allow for all us folk elsewhere. xox Corrine
Fabulous work, as usual Linda! I wish I had more time to play! Maybe next year when I retire.
I'm going to Ally Pally tomorrow as well Linda! Small world - I go every year. You won't believe it but I am doing the same workshop!!! Might see you there. I'm so excited - I love that show.

These look great - pears are very attractive aren't they, but your treatments have taken them up a level. They are pretty tasty too.
I think..in fact I know..you'll enjoy the K&S show. I went to AP last year but will be going to Harrogate this year .

Wow Linda, these pears are just delicious , the journal page is divine , I cant stop looking at it. The colours are so rich Oooooh I love it I always love to visit your blog, what an inspiration you are . This is beautiful work. Enjoy the show .
I love the pear images - so many fruits are very inspiring. The journal page effect is gorgeous.

Now I realise what 'Ali Pali' is!

amazing pear photos. I don't know how you do it but it's gorgeous
Love what you have done with those pears! Like Clare above I don't know how you do it but it is very effective. Hope your day at Ally Pally went well - I was supposed to be going on Thursday with a friend but then our flight back from France was that day so I couldn't make it. She tells me it was even better than last year though so do hope you enjoyed it all.

Why is it that somehow there's something special about pears? Maybe its the elegant shape, I'm not sure ... What you've done with these images is amazing. Of course I particularly LOVE the one that looks like a journal page!! Well I would wouldn't I?
