Welcome!

Thank you for visiting artful embellishments. This is the third year for this blog and I am so happy to keep publishing. I started in 2011 and began with a quilt of the week, this lead to the leaf of the week for my newly designed paper tree that is located on the wall of my garage in 2012.......2013 is going to bring a lot of excitement and positive change. As a personal challenge for 2013, I plan on designing a artist trading card each week to be featured on the blog.
With so many interests, there will be quilting, art quilting, leaves (and more leaves), as well as experiments in thermofax screen printing, fabric dying, and tons of DIY recycle projects. I may even enter that altered fashion scene. To a happy and healthy 2013, may we all find happiness in those things we create....thank you for stoping by artful embellishments.

The Barn-Photo editing, the beginning of a beautiful relationship


This barn is located in Northern Michigan. It is one of my favorite places to go in the fall. The barn is a family owned business that sells pumpkins and cider. The picture was edited in photo software. I used the free online photo editing software Pixlr. These are three different techniques for the same picture. This is really a lot of fun, and I will definitely be doing more of this type of editing. I am going to also print some of these on fabric for photo postcards. What I love about this program is that your photographs don't have to be perfect to get interesting results.
