MERRY CHRISTMAS FELCIE.
This is your Christmas gift, as well as an entry to your challenge. I thought I'd get more than one thing done at a time, while this challenge has gotten me inspired and motivated enough to make some art. I hope you don't mind.

Man, I don't think I'll ever find a need for Photoshop. EVER. One of my most favorite actions, next to PearlSky's "Feminine Charm", (I don't remember the name of it though) did exactly what I did to this image. Changed it from THIS to what the card is now and I absolutely LOVE the look it gives it. Just using a gray color with a few different blend modes at a light opacity, and bam. It's perfect <3

I hope you like it as much as I do!
