Cherub over at Feisty, Frugal and Fabulous got me hooked on Picnik. It is an absolutely amazing image adjusting program that is 100% online. Most of the features are free, and are exceptionally easy to use. Its a lot of fun to play around with the different features including collage, borders, sepia and black and white.
So today I had some spare time on my hands while the kiddos napped, and before heading to my first day working at Safeway (which by the way I am super excited about!). Enter my Picnik addiction. I had promised a couple of pictures to an internet friend to potentially use on her site. The pictures were a tad over exposed so of course I had to work at fixing them. But I didn't just stop there! I got inspired, and played around with my profile pic, and I absolutely adore it!
Here is the finished product for my profile picture. I think it fits into the theme of the blog perfectly. I added a border, and also the flower accents on the right hand side. I am a huge fan of Sepia, so of course I changed the picture to Sepia, adjusted the level so that it looked just right.
Here are the pictures that got me onto the computer in the first place... take a good long look at these pictures too though as they provide some insight into one of the wonderful giveaways that are looming!
And yes.. the beautiful Halloween Collage from a couple weeks back was also a product of my Picnik addiction!
And thus as any friend who has found something absolutely amazing should do I encourage you to head over to Picnik and play around! I would love to see your creations!

I *heart* Picnik! BTW, the collages work well on decks of cards from Artscow as well, did you see the fall collage I posted on Facebook? It's in my Oct album. Thanks for the blog plug, btw!
