Icons - Inspired by Giles Haikus from SOG 2013, all worksafe
I am so behind in last year's and this year's SOG - I can't believe it's already my posting date! I promise to continue going back through all the entries, many of you will continue to receive delayed comments! :)
I like to challenge myself with icons - so this year for SOG, I took inspiration from the awesome haikus of last year's Giles Haiku Day! I selected just a few from the group and have made an icon that, to me, represented the idea or moment of that haiku.
And to make it even more challenging, I made one regular icon, then another with one or more textures created by the talented Jordanna Morgan/Wolfbane.
Thank you so much to the lovely haiku writers for allowing me to play with their toys for this entry. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did creating them! :D I have attached each original haiku to the icons, with full credit to each writer.
Please feel free to take and use, please just credit. Enjoy!

Standing behind her
Watching the world saved, but who
Watches the watcher.

We ate the candy
We danced, partied hard, we snogged
We loved each other.

Not dark, but lively and light,
