Lavender

Lavender by Jill's Junk.
I've been tagged----damn it. I wasn't due to upload for another week:-)). Thanks a whole lot Jim and Dave!!!! I had to cheat as my 5th folder was family photos and I don't share them on flickr. I went to my 6th folder but this was the 5th photo. This also wasn't technically IN my computer but in one of two EHD's. Guess I don't follow rules very well:-)) SOOC with only signature and drop shadow added. Hey, it's even got some fancy bokeh in there!! I have to run and will think about who I'm going to tag and let you know later. Hmmm---who do I want to annoy the hell out of???

LOL.... they need to tag you more often Jill. This way you would upload more often... WOW!!! This is so awesome! I really love this. Yeah I have been tagged too. But everything is one folder pretty much I think. I need to organize my stuff. I am afraid I can't comply with the rules too well. Take care Jill. We are so freaking snowed around here up to my waist. Spent half a day shoveling roof yesterday and almost broke my back :( Cheers.
