Harvest

Now that fall is officially here, it will soon be time for the annual trip

to the Columbia River Gorge and the tour of fruit stands

in the shadows of Mt. Hood.

 The smell of dozens of varieties of peaches and pears 

adds another 'flavor' to fall.

Autumn Note Cards

This week's cards come from past photographs.

Fall is my favorite season.

The warmth of the colors and the cool crisp air are something I look forward to every year.

I pack my camera and go in search of the comfortable images of autumn.

I can't get enough. 

I hope you enjoy these softened paint filtered photographs.

Feel free to click on the photos for a closer look at the brush strokes.

 The original photographs without any enhancement are also available for purchase.

Getting started

If you've stumbled on my new blog this evening, please come back again. Tonight, I'm setting it up, but tomorrow, I'll begin posting pictures of blank note cards for sale. I text a lot, I email on occasion, and I view blogs, but nothing is as sweet as a handwritten message. I hope the electronic world we live in doesn't bring about the complete demise of personal notes. It's my hope that these cards will inspire you to drop a note to a special friend, a member of your extended family, or just someone who needs a smile or to feel loved today.
I'll begin with fall and Halloween cards. Last Friday I took a daytrip to the coast and stopped by Country Crafters in Astoria, Oregon on 10th Street. Julie was kind enough to let me take a few pictures of some darling gourds she has for sale. I brought my pictures home and went to work. There's still a little tweeking that needs to be done, but I'm loving them and I hope you do too.
Each Friday, I hope to visit a local antique, gift, or quilt shop and obtain permission to photograph some of their beautiful displays and then turn them into note cards to be posted each Monday.
