I was fortunate enough to be in the front of my housing development to witness open hostilities between rival factions. The two groups were sizing each other up, then, in the blink of an eye, the violence escalated into an all out war over local turf. I was also lucky enough to have my trusty camera with me to document the whole ugly mess. I just thought I would share!
Oooops! Did I say gang violence? What I meant to say was Gaggle Violence. It’s very unbecoming! And this Canada Goose, in particular, is quite fiesty and fresh. Have you ever seen a tongue that long?
In Order to post this photo in my blog, I had to crop it and make it very small. For full appreciation, check out my gallery at http://artellacafe.com/photos/julies_joy/default.aspx and you can see the details in this photo.
I submitted this photo to JPG Magazine under the theme of "Fresh" for consideration in their upcoming issue. I could use your help! Go to http://jpgmag.com/photos/571015 and vote for my photo by clicking the green "Yeah! It Rocks" button! Voting is open until April 08, 2008.
HELP! HELP! HELP! VOTE FOR MY PHOTO!

Freebies:
WHERE ARE ALL THE FREEBIES ?
I’m sure you’re all wondering where all the freebies have gone. Well, they’ve all been lost in Cyberspace. All the freebies I found were cataloged in my bookmarks. And then, one day, POOF, like magic………all gone. Fear not, I am on the hunt again. And, for being extremely tardy, I’ll list two for you today.
www.brusheezy.com has lots of really cool Photoshop Brushes (I also found some Vector Brushes (?) but I have no idea what they are yet.www.1001fonts.com has lots more free fonts for you to check out and download and they’re listed by category. If you don’t know how to install fonts, just let me know and I’ll post a “how to”.
OK, I said two, but I feel generous so here’s one more (little one)!
www.davidocchino.com is a graphic designer and he sells lots of stuff including fonts. BUT, he does give two of his designed fonts away free. The first is a Star Wars font called Aurebesh and the other is an Indiana Jones font called Forbidden Eye.
I hope these will keep you busy until I can find some more. Happy downloading!
Hugs, Julie
I'm just such a babe when it comes to Photoshop, it takes me all day just to do something as simple as this little wish for you and a couple of Easter Eggs on my blog. But, I am learning soooooooo much and having soooooo much fun you just wouldn't believe it. I can't believe it! So, today, it was away with the shamrocks and hooray for Easter. Check out my Easter blog design. And a little something special for my dear friends at Artella. Here's to you, each and every one!
Every single item that I used to embelilsh the Glitter Girl Blog and to create my Easter Wish for you was FREE. Have you been downloading your freebies?
Lots of love and hugs comin' your way! I think this is my favorite smiley face because it's kind of says it all. At least about the relationship I've had with chocolate lately.
Hugs and Love, Julie
