This is item #2 of the motif challenge.
I love new toys, like the font color change option. OK. It was suggested that I post pictures without using the grey cutting board, which I have used to show the size of what I am scanning. I re-scanned the beaded tree to show the difference when not using the grey (#3-1). It doesn't seem to show the beading much better than on the grey. Well, I will use it as a learning opportunity! I re-scanned it with a white background, although it doesn't look very white. Then I re-sized it and changed the resolution to try to sharpen it up (#3-1). Then I re-scanned, re-sized and sharpened it (#3-3).
This is item #3: 
and this is item #1: 
.
Next thing I want to do is learn how to design things. I've designed the necklaces, easy to do, just choose a size of split rings and put different beads in different places. I also designed one doily, from adapting the first two rows of a doily that looks nothing like what I ended up with, but I'd love to learn what it takes to routinely design things other than by trial and error.
From here on out, I will put my new challenge items within the post as well as in the gallery.

Never noticed your blog before. Good scanning job.
And I was wondering if you ever take photos of your work to post? [SMILE]
I tried to do some tatting when I was a child. But it did not last for very long. Then I learned to do a bit of crochet stitch and stuck with that for quite some years.
[SMILE] But tatting is pretty.[THUMBUP]
