diamond dreams ~ magnetic poetry

diamond dreams

beneath the light of a thousand
honeyed stars, I breathe
a sweetness found only
in time spent with you

    • Thank you. 🙂
      I use GIMP – a free / open source editing program – and paste the screenshot onto a transparency (a background option when creating a new image). I then use the magic wand set at around Threshold 35 to select the white around the letters, then I delete the white. Sometimes I save that as a png so that the image looks like tiles on my WP post. Usually, I click Select on the menu bar, then Invert, so that now the tiles are the selection. I copy that and paste it onto one of my photos that I’ve already resized to be a background for the tiles. Give that a try. I look forward to your results.
