A Dancing Pony Desktop Wallpaper




I've been having fun fiddling with creating fractals...I suppose always a first for everything.

This little Japanese pony just had to get in on the act..very like a little grey mare I had as a child!

I've put two large sized wallpapers in a zip which you can download HERE

Madame Grégoire Staechelin - A desktop wallpaper


This last lot of rain has been very very welcome but has been the end of what was left of my autumn show of roses. Most have lost a lot of leaf too.

Just to cheer myself I found this photo I'd taken a couple of season's ago of the beautiful climber "Madame Grégoire Staechelin" and fashioned it into a desktop wallpaper.

Unfortunately she is not one of "mine" but one of many really wonderful roses in the rose garden at Newtown Park at nearby Toowoomba cared for by our local rose enthusiasts.

She is a truely beautiful rose with quite strong fragrance originally bred in Spain and often also going by the name "Spanish Beauty" or "La Belle Espagnole"

Old and Grungy Scrapbook Album Pages





Well these are a little different!...for me anyway.
I needed something strongly coloured to liven up my family album and something that would suit those males in my family.
I suggest when adding text, that you use a faily light colour to contrast with the background.
In the zip which you can download HERE , I've included 2 pages, 3 frames and an extra element for further "grunge" :)


In this sample layout I've used old photos but I'm sure the pages would look good with modern photos, especially sunset images.

There is quite a lot of detailed texture in these papers...I hope you find them useful.
