(click on the image to see it close up)this was my first official project on photoshop.
Brandy's is poster-size and nicely framed
and she loved it--just as I predicted she would.
I chalked up another point for daughter in law of the year.. jk.

They were here.
We ate delicious coconut cream pie.
And then they left.
It wasn't long enough.








not this cute anymore!

That is so cute Janet!
I wish I lived near you so I could soak up your incredible talent. That picture is so cool. Where did you print it up at?
Now that is awesome! Great job!
I was reading through all of them & thinking how cute this was & then I got to "gay" - HA! This is a fantastic gift idea! What grandma wouldn't love it?
how clever! That is really cute. I love that you used gay! HAHA I'm sure you met the 'happy' kind of gay, right?
you have GOT to be kidding me!!! I want a poster size print of that! What a creative gift idea.
So, can you help me do one of my kids? because I really want to be the daughter in law of the year next year.
SERIOUSLY!! I CANNOT GET OVER THIS! My favorite is kissable and thirsty.. and who doesn't love a gay man? the happy kind of course!
I printed it for practically nothing.. I think it was $15 through an online sister company of Snapfish. I came in 3 days and it's great quality. It is a 20 X 30- so longer than a poster, but not as wide. and I randomly found the right size frame at Michael's and didn't have to custom frame it-- and that was a tender moment for me!
Sarah- I will totally help you do this, if you want. It's really not that hard. Why don't you take a several pictures of your kids.. I put the emotions on after I saw the pictures. I just used a white sheet for a backdrop.. and the shots are from my ghetto kodak cam. I am sure yours will be much better since you're a photographer at heart. Anyway, get back to me and we will work something out... could be your mother's day gifts..........
this is so cute! what a good idea. i love that you labelled aaron gay... so funny. you're kids are so darn cute! my kids would never pose for such a thing.
AHH!! So funny and so cool. it totally looks professional.
and you are always so photogenic. how did you get Zack to do all those faces?
and just so you know, my entire office has now looked at this and they think it's incredible. especially that you did it yourself. and of course, gay is hilarious.
and Ben really looks depressed.
I knew that gay would be the favorite. Aaron always steals the show! but in reality... he was not working with me and did NOT want to take any pictures. I was able to get two, one of which was not usable. so this seemed to fit... and of course, his mom loved it.
and as far as getting my kids to pose, it didn't really take me that long. I had treats for them if they would give me 10 minutes of picture taking and after their turn, they got the treat. Zack automatically followed suit after Ben and Luke went.. and that was that. getting Aaron's pic (and making him take ONE of me was the HARD part.)
Do your husbands hate to take pictures like mine does? It is like pulling teeth at our house. anyway, that topic is for another day.
you are totally hilarious! Even in a project like this, your personality totally comes out. I mean, CONSTIPATED! that is such a perfect face! and of course gay is hilarious.
you are always out doing everyone- you little brat. thanks for sharing with the rest of us uncreative, wanna be janets.
I loved this when you showed it to everyone at bookclub. You seriosuly are so creative and cute. See you tonight!
So cute Janet! I'm about to dive into photoshop myself. I've used it a little, but want to do more! What a fun project.
Cute idea!! BTW, my brother Russ said you could uninvite him so that you can invite one of the 35 people that still need an invite to your blog.
Ha! I love that poster. That was probably fun to put together.
i feel like the 2nd grader who always copies the cool girl at school. i just want to do everything you do, i can't help it!
You are so creative and Silly!!! Glad you had fun with your in laws. I know Aarons Mom LOVES YOU. She has told me. Love You Janet!
What a cute idea! I love how expressive your kids are! It is fun to see pictures of aaron's parents too!!
What a great idea! You come up with the funnest things. It would have taken me MONTHS to come up with that...let alone actually make it. I can only imagine the other great ideas rolling around in your brain! What a cool talent.
I love it! You gotta help me do my gifts for the in-laws, I never seem to get it right. ps-I love the "Stressed" and "bossy" and thirsty" well actually its all so funny!-Great Idea!!
This turned out so great! I love it. And yeah--the "gay" is a classic. "I'm feeling so gay today!"
THAT IS THE BEST PRESENT EVER!!!!!!
I totally want to do that with my kids.
