...so, last weekend was 'let's see what else I can scan' weekend...and I found a pile of my dear Dad's old books that I've kept...I love books...and I scanned these in, made a psd, carefully cutting out the book pile, then Kim announced that this week's prompt would be the word story...perfect! I used my texture 'Voyage' for the background and Kim's 'Trust' over the top for added texture and warmth...fun ;)

ReplyDeletegreat quote to go with an even more great photo! i had taken some pics of my son's children's books, and i was going to use them for this week's prompt, but i could not find a quote i wanted to use... i even googled "quotes about story/stories", but this one never came up. i might have used it if it had. {i love it!} instead, i went with a completely different them. =)
