Just Playing ...

Combining tricks from two different sites: Totally Rad Action Recipes and I Heart Faces. To make this:

_MG_7404T

from this (sooc):

_MG_7404


I like the sooc just as is, but I also like experimenting just for fun. Here's the recipe I lifted and adjusted from TRA's recipe page: Lux soft 30%, Boutwell Magic Glasses 30%, Troy 30%, Vignette & Blur fast 35%, Slice like a Ninja. The border idea came from IHF's tutorial by the very-talented Michelle Johnson.

Here's another experiment from a recent session:

069_Patopoff_F1004T

from this:

Recipe: Oh Snap 45%, Get Faded Winter 12%, Highlight Separator, Pool Party 24%, Vintage Dream Sequence V (overlay mode) 76% (from Patti Brown's Kaleidoscope Collection) and Slice like a Ninja 50%.
