happy texture tuesday
popping in with a simple recipe today.
i took a pic of my beloved caran dache pastels.  they are so amazing.  if you get a chance to try them... you must. 
they are super creamy and oh so fabulous.

i used my latest 2 for texture - 'spill it' on this image. 
(oh just a note....i used my beloved pastels on the 'spill it' texture)

here's what i did.
a little recipe sharing...
 
i desaturated the base image to go with the grungy texture. 
then i added a texture from the baker's dozen ~ 'frosted'
and then 2 layer's of the 'spill it' texture.  one at multipy 39% and one at soft light 42%.
and finally a slight curves adjustment.

and that is that. happy day....

talk soon...xxo, kim

What do I love more? The photo, the processing, Twyla Tharp, or the quote by Twyla, it's hard to say because I love it all!
