Combination of Two images...




One of my very VERY favorite things is playing around in Photoshop and combining and manipulating images. This is a combination of images with the Poppies overlaid as a layer and the opacity turned down. I always liked these backgrounds but they needed something I am very excited about finding out how DJ Pettitt does this in her absolutely wonderful images. I thought these turned out pretty well so I decided to blog it and link DJ. I love her art and have always wanted to take a class from her. She will be offering a Photoshop class soon. YAY!! I am very excited about this. I don't know her but maybe someday I will. She seems like a wonderful artist and person. Tulla, her dog, is precious also. I love dogs so I love when she posts things about Tulla. She doesn't know I am linking her---I am a stalker---but in a good way!!!

    So very pretty! I have photoshop elements but I really need a 'how to' book because I'm lost!
    Thanks for inspiring me :)
