Relaxing Jigsaw Puzzles - Day 15

 In the back of my mind I keep thinking someday I will sketch so when I saw these puzzles I was intrigued.  The pictures are pretty especially the landscapes.  I used to love to put jigsaw puzzles together when I earlier in my life sitting at a table.  We made it a family affair when we weren't playing monopoly.  But these days sitting at a table putting puzzles together would be painful.  So when I saw these digital puzzles I was delighted.  I usually put together one puzzle a day - the free one that they offer.  Of course I've bought my share too, especially when they are on sale.  Usually they only cost a little over $2 on sale.  When we put a puzzle together we get points and these can add up until we have enough to use for getting more free puzzles.  Putting together these puzzles relax me.

Here is a pretty puzzle I did.

 

I love faces and her lips intrigued me.

I was putting this puzzle together 

That was going to be the picture of the humming bird in the middle.  We get to peek at our picture if we want.

Another cool feature is, I find some really pretty pictures and I can copy them and import them into the puzzle feature where I create my own.  

Here is a busier picture puzzle I put together

Working Jigsaw puzzles - day 9

Do you remember when we used to spread jigsaw puzzles on a table and take turns putting the pieces together?  I have a friend who still likes working  jigsaw puzzles at her table.  I find it very uncomfortable to sit at a table for too long and especially if I was leaning over trying to put a puzzle together.  So I found a really cool app for my iPad and cell phone that's free.  I can sit here comfortably and move the puzzle pieces with my fingers.  There is a free puzzle each day and they give us a lot of free puzzles.  

I don't get any compensation from them but I've tried others and this is the one I like.

Here is a set of puzzles I bought.  Aren't they pretty?

There is a place on the app where you can create custom puzzles from pictures you've saved on your computer. It's really easy to use.  Every time you buy some puzzles you get points so when you get enough points you can use them to buy more puzzles.  

I can change the number of puzzle pieces from a few (If I don't like the free puzzle of the day) to many if the puzzle is beautiful.  Many are very lovely.  I am so thankful for these digital puzzles.
