Adjustment Period

I just noticed that my last post was the day I started my new job.

Let's just say going from several months of unemployment to a regular schedule has taken its toll a bit.

But I'm hoping to back at it soon!  LOTS of projects I want to tackle!

Photo-A-Day Challenge

On my birthday last year I started my own photo-a-day challenge.  One picture.  Every day.

Let me tell you....it wasn't easy.

I think I may fall short by a few pictures when March 2nd rolls around this year...but just a few.  Some days were definitely better than others but all in all its pretty awesome to look back and remember where I was when I took that shot.  On the job hunt  for several months definitely made coming up with a pic a bit of a challenge (lots-o-cat pictures lol) but I'm happy I did it.

So I've been wondering how I should continue and then I came across this post on The Idea Room.  Perfect timing!  I like the idea of joining a group and working on a project together.  I also like that I'll have daily prompts.

Care to join us?!  Check out all the details for the challenge here.

Subway Art

I've pinned a couple of tutorials on how to create subway art in Photoshop with every intention of creating some for myself but it wasn't until a friend asked for some help that I got down to it.

I had some great sayings to work with thanks to some Twitter quotes from her favorite actor.  The files I created are in high resolution so she should be able to print them at 16x20 and still have them look sharp.

She intends to frame and hang them in her office at work.  She has pink, grey and black accents so it was easy to decide what colors to use.

I'm by no means an expert, but I'm pretty happy with how they came out.  I think the grey one is my favorite.

Now to decide what I would like mine to say.
