Churches...

I've been driving by this church for over 17 years and tonight I decided to snap a couple of pictures of it...It is so Pretty...They still hold church here once a month in the summer.

(Last I knew.)
This next church is the Catholic Church in my hometown that I have been a member of for over 17 years and thought too I better snap a picture. They turned out awesome, at least I think!

Adobe Photoshop Elements 8...Plus Photo Essentials...

I am soooo excited about my new software I just purchased for my self...I finally bought Adobe Photoshop Elements 8...then in the box was an add-on called Photo Essentials. So I bought that too. AND LOVING IT! (So Far) Here is my very first creation using the add-on.

This is my sons car...the original...

I first used "Frame It" and then I used "Make it Better"
Next "Make it Cool" (I choose the Cartoon Effect)
Then I turned it Black & White with the "Make it Cool" again.There are so many options with this add-on...I think it was worth every PENNY!!!
