Merry Christmas!

Filed Under: Photography

These are part of the flowers that Kenny got me the other night. They are gorgeous.

MerryChristmas copy

I made a clean edit, then added a texture from Kim Klassen’s newest texture set. I don’t normally buy textures but these were going to benefit her sweet dog Ben. He was hit by a truck and they had to do very expensive surgery. She has done so much for me by offering free textures & texture classes, it was the least I could do. Make sure you check them out, she does an amazing job. Anyways back to the edit. I set the blending mode to multiply. Then used coffee shops Color block-it action and added the Merry Christmas on.
and then, she {snapped}

I hope each and every one of you, my dear friends, have a very Merry Christmas! Enjoy your time with your family. This may be the last time that I post until after Christmas. Make sure you come back January 1st. I have a big reveal that I am so excited about. Also only 25 more followers until my big giveaway.
