ReplyDeleteOh, I love what you've done with the dried flower buds. A lovely edit. And the hay in the fields ... a wonderful story.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and vintage looking. Love your new header. xo Karen
ReplyDeleteWhat a feel to the second picture. Love your new header too.
ReplyDeleteNice compositions, very relaxing to view.

ReplyDeletevery pretty effects; I love the snowfields image
ReplyDeletethank you so much for all of the lovely comments. I wish I remembered the process I used on this image. However, I just play around with the textures that I have until I see something I like. I use Picnic which is free on line.
