this week ms. kim didn't give us a topic, just asked that we use at least one layer of her beautiful and subtle texture "Little Things"
my pal duffy and i have taken advantage of the few sunny days we've had to head out to the beaches and gather some fresh new springtime sea glass. it's still cold and my fingers froze, but it sure feels good to see those glistening gems in the sun on the beach. and duff does love his ice water swims.
here's a bit of what we came home with:
and here it is after a photoshop spa treatment:
i set the image on soft light blend and adjusted the levels and contrast a bit. i added a cooling filter at 17%. then i placed one layer of kim's "little things" texture set on multiply at 74%, and one more set soft light at 45%. i like the grungy-beachy look.
now click here to go see what my fellow texture friends have done this week!

ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful sea glass, I haven't spied any of it in years. Lovely quote to go with your image.
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed at how much sea glass you collected. I've lived here for 21 years and have only found one bit of sea glass on our beach in all that time. Now shells, that's a different story. I have tons of those!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the effect of the texture here! Just beautiful!

Gorgeous sea glass! It's few and far in between here that I'm able to find even 1 piece entirely "finished." I actually gasped when I saw your finds Deb. Your photography is wonderful. ~Lili
ReplyDeleteOh, wow...just gorgeous. I have always loved sea glass, but I've only managed to find a few pieces. I love your texture; it makes them even more magical.
