Ever since I took up photography, I have wanted to try adding some textures to the pictures. Well I finally did it! I used a ruffed up texture with a flower picture I took for my photography class. Check out the original versus the texture and the blending type. They all look pretty cool in my eyes.  Can't wait to try some more textures in Photoshop.

I have been really busy learning new Photoshop techniques and making digital scrapbook pages. The class I am currently taking is Digi in Deep from JessicaSprague.com. It is a lot of fun learning new ways to add detail to a scrapbook page. Below are a few of my recent pages.
