Boy, I’ll say! Back in the day, we actually Played marbles, I knew this kid who had 3 large polished steel ball bearings that he played marbles with, I won one of them from him but he started crying so I gave it back. Big baby. Thanks for the memory!!
DesignsByDeb replied
Someone should have told him not to play with his steelies if he didn’t want to lose them. Those were hard to get! Glad I jogged your memory and hope you had many fun games back then.

Excellent shot! Love the sc!
LisaR
Oops LOL just realised there isn’t any sc, but it looked like it! Great contrast of colours and tones.
DesignsByDeb replied
Thanks! I’m not sure what sc is though.
LisaR
Hi Deb. SC means selective colour. When you use photoshop or another program to make everything usually black and white except for selective objects the retain their original colour :)
DesignsByDeb replied
Thanks for the clarification. I don’t know why I didn’t think of it.
