On a roll!

[selawela]

I'm trying not to hog up the Before & After thread, but I am on a roll after a very long dry spell with trying to be "creative."

Thought this one came out pretty good, so I would like to share. The "after" is a combination of the Orton Effect, Bill's Watercolor technique, steps 1 & 2, "open up the windows of the soul," Volume 4, No 7, a visit to the filter gallery for the grass area...let's see..what else...gosh, I better go write this down before I forget!!!!!

Before:

Thank you Judy, Nancy, Vesta, Wendy & Christell! I can see where I can make some improvements, but I think for now I am just going to give it to my friend so she can include a 4by6 in her thank-you cards for the gifts the baby received at her 1st
b-day party. This cutie-pie is the same little baby that won me my IOW a while back...the baby wrapped in the towel with a b & w effect. She's in my PET gallery.

Thanks again, ladies, for the comments and I'm glad you liked it! Have a wonderful weekend, all!

Hi Sela ...

Over at DDD Karen has made some Christmas Gilft Tags using photographs ... they look good, I am sure that this photo would look great on a tag :)
