Oh my. Yesterday did not turn out the way I planned blog-wise. The day before when I was supposed to write the blog entries for yesterday I fell asleep! I woke up in the middle of the night, so tired that I just brushed my teeth and didn’t even bother to change into my night t-shirt, I just went to bed with the top I was wearing during the day.

So I wrote a short entry yesterday morning explaining this and that I would not be able to keep up my publishing schedule since I fell asleep and am working during the day so can’t blog then. I planned to blog when I came home from work. But the preparations for today’s blogs took all my time. It is now 11 pm and I have two blog entries to write and photos for the tree project post at 3 pm (CET) to edit.

But I don’t think it matters that much. Because yesterday I had 0 visits on the blog! So that’s what happens when I just post, and don’t promote my posts on my private Facebook page. In this case, I purposely didn’t and maybe that was smart… 😉

But for the blog entries tonight I have made a lot of effort. For this first entry, I want to tease you a bit with the preparations for this week’s bokeh theme in Jen’s and my tree project. The theme is to create our own bokeh lens and take photos with it for the project.

I tried to make a bokeh pattern of a leaf. First, I can’t draw- you need some imagination to see that the bokeh shape is a leaf ;), and second, it was a challenge to cut the leaf out of the paper. I am not the artist Jen is, so my hands are not even used to this ”fine” type of work. See my preparations creating the bokeh lens in this video:

I followed an awesomely easy tutorial on Youtube by Pypah’s art.

At 3 pm CET you will see how the photos and how my ”leaf” pattern turned out. Stay tuned.
