… this summer although there have been a few new images I’m fond of. I can’t believe I was making three or more a week for ages and now I’m lucky to get one in every couple of weeks. Here are a few challenges I haven’t shared.

Where I used to crank out three or more images a week at my online playground, I’ve only managed a few this past month and I’ve even missed playing at all a couple of weeks. I miss my creativity being in full gear, but I have certainly enjoyed the gorgeous spring weather.
The usual rules applied in these challenges. The objects must be recognizable in the finished images.

It has been a while since I posted any of my creations. I haven’t been quite as creative since spring arrived, but I do have a few new things to share.
I have no idea what the first image in the first row is although some of the members of the Plus PSP group said it reminded them of a jukebox. The challenge shape is that hourglass shaped figure.
The second and third images were derived from several objects provided in that challenge. The umbrella, the vines or leafy objects, the shape of the aquarium and the decorative scroll work on the outside of the mother-of-pearl brooch. We could use one or all and it was one of my favorite challenges we’ve done in a long time.

The fourth image challenge object is the shape I used to create the base holding the decorative egg.
The fifth and sixth images were created after trying to come up with something for the cattails OTHER than where you would actually see them.
Fun stuff, y’all, come join us! 
Hi Gang… I mean my loyal four readers! I’m all refreshed and feeling better after my week’s break from thinking I just had to post every day. I didn’t refrain from playing in Paint Shop Pro though and the evidence is below.
Betsy says: “Anything goes as long as the shape/shapes are identifiable in the finished product.” You may use one or both of these images in your entry.

Challenge 281, last one I think!
Challenge 281, Image 3 and 4
Challenge 281 cont’d
I’m this week’s challenger and this is the shape I submitted with instructions it had to be recognizable in the end result.
I created the feeder, the background is several layers of pattern fills from grsites.com. The hummingbird is a Paint Shop Pro tube, not my creation. The “twine” or rope holding the feeder is also a tube.
Challenge 280, Image 6
I have way too much time invested this week in my Paint Shop program. And just think the challenge week doesn’t close until Sunday afternoon. It’s possible to create even more images! Help!
I wanted to create the whole airplane, but the propeller and part of one engine will just have to do.
And more jewelry…
