Butterfly Glow [Contest Finalists March 2006]
Uploaded: March 01, 2006 06:54:26
Applied softness to background, then erased off of butterfly. Applied Dave's Ethereal glow to background as well as Flaming Pear's Melancholytron filter. Then, I duplicated layer, applied a pattern overlay for texture and erased off of the butterfly. Done in PSCS2.
