FOL14 - Week 22 -

May's topic for the Focus on Life 2014 weekly photography challenge is 

'In, At and About' 

and for week 22, Sally (The Studio Sublime) gave us this prompt:

"This week we are focusing on what is IN Bloom!"

The only thing blooming here in the desert right now is the heat.

Well, there's tons of saguaro blooms that are looking pretty awesome right now, but I couldn't capture a good pic of those this week.

And, bougainvilleas and bird of paradise are always in bloom here when it's summer and super hot, but the pics I took of those didn't come out as well as this shot of one of the last roses in our rose bush. 

The pics from the top looking down on the rose showed all the scorched petals, so I chose this angle because it looked the prettiest!

Okay, back to the bloomin' heat!

Until Next Time,

Peace, Love and Beauty In Bloom!

Cheers,

~Shel~

*A little side note,...

Get Your Bling On!

One of my earring wire clients over on Etsy has the coolest, most dazzling crystal earrings on the block!  They totally ROCK!


Perfect for Valentine's Day (did you get that subtle hint there all you guys!?!),  JillerysJems on Etsy has got the most colorful crystal earrings, necklaces and bracelets you could ever imagine.

Sparkling and stunning designs are what make JillerysJems stand out - her designs just pop!  She has a real knack for putting colors together that compliment each other and the way the crystals shine in her designs is amazing!

My fav's right now - being it's close to Valentine's Day - are these pink cluster earrings (featured here on our Shel's Jewelry Supplies Mini-Swirl Earring Wires). These are so beautiful and elegant - perfect way to catch that special someone's eyes on your Valentine's date - don't you think?

So, hop on over and check out JillerysJems shop on Etsy and put your shades on 'cause these gems out shine all the rest!

Until Next Time,

Peace, Love and all things that Sparkle!

Cheers,
