Some artwork to share

I've done a lot of housework today.  I'm always buried under a boat load of laundry.  Just once, I'd like to look at a laundry basket and see it empty!  I had a lot of linens to do today, so I'm still staring at three tall laundry bins full of clothes to do.  Yuck!

So while I'm waiting for the dryer to buzz, I've been playing with Photoshop.  Yesterday, I downloaded fire brushes and fire patterns and followed a turtorial on how to make fire with Photoshop.  I had to be creative, because the tutorial was for a full version of the software and I just have elements, but I think I came really close to making what the tutorial put out. 

Here's my fire:




Next, I made a banner for my upcoming ficlet called, Never Trust A Skull for nekid_spike October Numbers challenge.  I got Harmony, Skull, Woods/Forest.  It's with my beta now, but I don't plan to post until the 27th.  It's a how-they-met ficlet.  But let me tease you with the banner:




I was on a roll, so I worked on a banner for 3xcereal 's story Accidentally Yours.  I offered to make banners and she took me up on it.  :)
Here's the banner:




I have beta work to do, plus I have my own writing, so I'm off to be creative with words instead of pictures now.
