BeFunky!

I have had a lot of fun lately
using an easy  little online photo editor 
called 

I love it because it is so user friendly!

Takes me less than a few minutes a lot of the time
 unless I am really looking for just the right effects.
Here are a two I made just this week 
with sort of a before and after -so you can see the amazing difference!
 This was a photo from last weeks 
artsy gal gathering I attended - we have a Facebook page
and I thought we could use a header for it.
This is what I created for the page
using BeFunky!



 This is is a photo of a band
I was featuring in a music page that I co-administrate.
Kind of blah right?


Well - Viola!
A nice funky version that I think grabs your attention
much better.
I have used it for so much the last few months!
I think it is very easy to use if you are tech. challenged
and just want to work on something a bit faster than photoshop allows time for!
I really wanted to share that little tidbit with you for today!
If you are stuck indoors
and want something to play around with-
head on over to 

Let me know what you think!
Happy Sunday everyone!

SO I thought I was back............

Last time I posted
I was all gung ho to get back in here.
THEN - December fell apart.
Two deaths in the family and an aging grandparent that
needed some outside care...
Very overwhelming month including the holidays.

So I am going to take it day by day for now.
Doing the little things 
that bring me some joy 
as I can 
and not on a time table!
 What does that involve?


Why Coffee of course!
I am still working on editing the 1,300
photos I took of Pearl Jam in Charlotte back in October!
(Isn't Ed adorable?!)
 Trying to keep up with new and old friends.....


I was asked to be admin on a music page....
(I edited the above photos into that logo strip!)
Remembering that laughter is the BEST medicine!
Laughing and having fun with photoshops of some of my gals!
Having fun with this crazy kid and teaching
him about music....
"Blackbird" sung by Eddie Vedder - give it a try
you will be TOTALLY surprised...
and the audience interaction is priceless....

So what have you all been up to?!
Here is to 2014 being an awesome year!
Thanks for being patient with me through this tough time!
