Finally! :-)

I originally started this blog as a place to show my digital layouts and photos, and this is the FIRST layout I've done since I started! This is my dgd Anna, who can cop quite a 'tude when she wants to. Thanks Jeanne, for the nudge to use brushes! I tested quite a few on there before I decided that I liked the overlay the best. I just got a Wacom Bamboo tablet to help with editing photos (although I didn't edit this one) and played with it quite awhile this evening. I was surprised at how easy it was to get used to using. I kinda feel like I'm waving a magic wand in the air! lol Anyway, it was a lot of fun and I'm inspired to do more. I love this particular photo, so I may do several layouts with it, just for fun.
