I really like the effect...beautiful comp and colors. If you have time, can you please tell me what filters were used? Saw this on Editor's First Picks...congrats! Lynn #4222520Terri Beloit April 28, 2007
Thank you for your comments, Lynn! And, for letting me know this was in the Editor's First Picks...sometimes I see them, but not always! As for the filters I used, I "think" this is what I did...buzzed, either paint daubs or pallete knife and the applied a texture, and can't recall just what it was, but it something to give it a canvas look. Hope that helps! #4224611
