In 2008, Brian & I took a trip to Charleston SC for our 30th wedding anniversary. I started taking pictures then of alphabet letters hiding out in nature. Brian was very patient as I stopped frequently to snap away. Cemeteries, parks, vines, parking decks,... you'd be surprised what you see when you start looking. And Brian is a very good spotter, too. I have continued this hobby for the past few years and have wanted to actually use them to spell out something important. Today was the day! I finally found the perfect frames at Michael's a few weeks ago. They were a little expensive, considering I need 4+ of them, so I patiently perused the paper for coupons, timed my shopping spree for Fridays when teachers get an extra discount :) and was ready to go. I made some personal artwork for the grandsons' bedroom at Nana & Granddad's house. See if you can figure these out:
My family doesn't like the "E" in Jude's name, but it is one of my favorites! I'm not satisfied with Ben's "n"- so if you see a good "N" in nature, let me know :)
(PS- Kudos to my children for naming their babies with 3-4 letter names! Probably wouldn't have tackled this project for someone named "Elizabeth.")
I'd like to look for some "natural" numbers now, maybe make birth date pictures...
These are beautiful!!!!! Got enough for a KATE and SYDNEY :)????
