texture tuesday

One of my favorite challenges is hosted by Kim Klassen and gives me a chance to play with textures and experiment with PSE.  Today's was super simple, just use one of Kim's textures on any image.  One of my current fave shots is one I took a couple of mornings ago with our first real frost.


I started with the photo above and added 2 of Kim's free textures.


First I added "pink" to make it a little more wintery and soften the background.  I used it at soft light, 100%.  Then I tried a few others and settled on Dream Words at color burn, 64%.


I like this darker, more dramatic version but it still keeps the pink undertones.  Be sure to click through to her link up party and see TONS of more BE-autiful shots!

    This is really pretty.
    Just as pleasing as flowers.
    The rime gives it a cheery touch.

    This is so lovely. The delicate rime of frost adds such a beautiful element to the leaves. The texture you chose is perfect too.
