With these photos I added a solid color fill layer that was a warm rust color, changing the blending mode to overlay and reducing the opacity. This allowed the image to have an antique look. Next, I added the texture layer by using channels to take the layer with the most contrast and using the move tool to drag the layer onto the first original photo. This layer was then decreased in opacity to the desired effect. Another layer was added with a hard light blending mode and then copied with with a recued opacity to complete desired effect. Finally, I added a burned border with some text to finish it all off!

2. Polka Dots 2: May 3, 2010: To get this effect I added a thick font and then arranged the type layer to be under the image layer. With a link to morph the two layers together I was able to use the image as the fill color for the type that I added. The image is now inside the letters. Next, I added a new layer, copying the original layer for the whole background. I then chose a darker shade to color the layer between in order for the type to pop a little bit more. Finally, I added a drop shadow, as well as a stroke with the use of the bevel and emboss tools to make the type show up even better. Finally, I added a watercolor filter to the original background layer for a little bit of a playful feel.

Hey Amber. What nice photos you have taken. I especially like the Polka Dots and the text that you put on it. Plus with the lines from the curtain and the lines from the sequences of dots makes it an interesting photograph.
I really like how both images are a similar color scheme, yet very different in contrast. The perspective of the jars is makes the image very interesting.
I really like your polka dot one, its really nice.I also like the font you picked for it. I do have a question for you... how did you morph the font to the background?
I love your blended pictures, but I have to say that the "a" in "sugar" is way too far from the "g". Sorry, I'm taking typography...lol. The type effect is really nice too. You're pretty creative.
I really like your photos, great job on the overlaying. I was having trouble seeing the real photo without seeing the blog background. I think maybe your setting is transparent for the photos. No biggy, I actually think its a pretty cool feature. :)
I like the pictures you chose to blend together. I think it gave the overall look a nice vintage theme which I really like. And i like the font you chose for the picture with the jars.
Way to go on the blending process i like the look of the flower, sugar and spice jars. the slate look is awesome very strong reinforces the black in the jars.
