Jeff Robinson level-deluxe July 17, 2007

Excellent Theme image Anita!! Jeff #4518380

Anita Hogue July 17, 2007

Thanks to you all. You're right Duane these cups are too small. That's the one thing I don't like about them. The plates are really big but for some reason the cups are just too small; but we can always have seconds or thirds.
I had to make the steam by using a white paint brush, distort and blur.
This was sitting on my black piano which gave the reflection........anita #4518514
