Blue Christmas
The theme over at City Crafter's is Blue Christmas. Linda, this week's host, said that it made her think of Elvis and I have to confess that's exactly who I thought of, too! My parents listened to Elvis a lot and I must say, I still like to hear him! I haven't had a chance to play along at City Crafter's in awhile and I was determined to find a minute to play along this week. My contribution to Blue Christmas is one of my soldered ornaments.
I certainly need some advice on taking pictures of these! It seems no matter what I do, I get glare or can see my camera in the picture!
Do you see my pink camera reflected in the lower right corner? I reduced and printed one of my vintage images and glittered it to represent snow. I just love this little girl and snowman. They are so cute and make me happy! I use Silver Gleem for my soldering - it's so bright and shiny.
