🎡A Little Purple Bliss


A collage of purple images designed from the one image in the center of a purple iris. The images are purple kaleidoscope mandalas with gold sparkles and green backgrounds, and the background in the collage frame is a tessellation of purple and white flower designs.

After all the heavy-on-theology posts of the last couple months, I think it’s time for a little purple playfulness. My irises started blooming, so while I was outside talking to a neighbor, I got some shots with my Pixel 9 phone camera. With a favorite selected, I went to Photo Studio Pro (by KVADGroup App Studio at Google Play Store) to crop and frame it, and then to my Mirror Lab app to create kaleidoscope designs. They were a little more dull than I liked, so I took a few of those designs to Wombo Dream AI and tried a few different filters for variety. Once I had a nice collection of images, I went back to Photo Studio Pro to put them into a collage with one of the Mirror Lab images as the frame background.

So there you have it. If you’re a purple lover, you should really enjoy this one. 🟣 πŸ’œπŸŸͺ And just in case you REALLY like purple, here’s an article at the Houzz website with lots of pictures of purple kitchens: https://www.houzz.com/photos/purple-kitchen-ideas-phbr1-bp~t_709~a_88-7?pg=5

And with that, I say goodnight and I hope you had fun during International Jumping Over Things Day.

Oh, and just because I can, I have to include this video of Sheb Wooley singing One Eyed, One Horned, Flying Purple People Eater…
