EXPERIMENTING!!

ORIGINAL PHOTO ~ Oxford, England

Have you tried PicMonkey?

it's a new "free" photo-editing program...

Check it out HERE!

this is a rather long post! just warning yah!

I've been experimenting, today!

:: FRAMES ::

This looks sort-of "EDGY"

{no pun intended!}

Photo corners looks sorta fun?!?

{in an old-fashioned way}

pretty dark, dreary but effective!

:: EFFECTS ::

OWWW! Ummm?? 

{not suited to this pic}

Will be trying this effect again!!

you leave most of the photo in B&W

& insert a circle of color wherever you want!

HDR --- this is pretty cool!

:: TEXTURES :: 

l.o.v.e ~ the paint splotch

{on the left hand side} 

AH-HA!!! love this!

{also, check out the "writing" overlay under TEXTURE}

smudgy edges ~ like? not sure!

{sort of like distressed wood}

INTERESTING...

looks almost like a canvas painting

{OR looking through a screen door}

& finally...

:: OVERLAYS :: 

I'm not FUN-NY...

(I can't tell jokes}

BUT ---

sometimes I CAN make people laugh!!

...by adding a mustache!!

{see the arrow directing your attention?}

BUT, this is probably my BEST work today!

"bugs, critters & scary guys"

I warned you --- this was a long post!

I L.O.V.E PicMonkey

worked on DE-CLUTTERING the garage

NOW I have some piles!

{free trash pick-up this Thurs & 

RAD is coming by Tues to take bags of clothes}
