Photoshop Creative

I am doing this with Jane's ok to get us back into what we do best....create. I am posting an image, your challenge is to take this image and do whatever you want to it and post your results. One thing I would like is that you also state what you did to the image (if you can remember all the steps you did) Have fun. If this flies I will ask someone else to post an image next week. There is no time limit on this, will not expire.
I should of added this...if you want to post a picture of your own for others to play with PLEASE,PLEASE do so, just start a new thread and post but please add to your post that you would like people to post their steps. That way they are like mini tutorials.

I thought i would play here is mine, nothing fancy just played with brushes.

now that even got a chuckle out of hubby.

I am so glad that we are getting things started. I will be glad to help in any way.

oh, I love the one on the bottom with the lips.

all right, we are getting things going. Good to see you Bama

thanks kimi (thats my sisters lips if she only knew. Glad i can still make someone chuckle suzib.

Here ia an attempt of mine. Used 5 layers, cut-out on one, dry brush on the next, median on the next and rough pastels on the last. If you like it I will try to write up what I did and put in tutorials section. If you stop at the first 4 layers you get a watercolor effect.

Here is another ..duplicated backgroung ran xero filter abstractor(xero.com alot of free plug-ins work with elements) blend soft light

suzib that first one is really neat looking.
