Small Treasures

My entry for this week's Texture Tuesday shows a few of my favorite things including the starfish and sponge from my bathroom.  I made the little box wrapped in a vintage paper and covered with beautiful pearl buttons.  
I started with a really poor quality photo, removed the color cast, did a levels adjustment, added Kim Klassen's Canvasback texture soft light 100%, then Kim's Luminous texture soft light 100% and French Kiss' Paris Papers texture multiply 38%. Go check out the great textures she offers, many of which are free!  Finally, I added French Kiss' French Script brushes. 
Have a happy, prosperous day.
