There's a bit of everything on there. Birds, trees, splats, spilled coffee stains, flourishes, rain drops, splashed water, grunge marks, cracks, post marks, wings, vintage postcard backs.

playing with brushes
In Photoshop, that is. I kept seeing brushes this, brushes that on digital sites and finally downloaded a bunch of freebies from this great site. Then I opened a background of aged tan paper and cruised thru the teeny weeny thumbnails of the brushes and tried all the interesting looking ones on the page. I didn't have anything in mind when I started, just wanted to play with brushes enough to see if it was something I wanted to use in digital layouts. The answer is a resounding YES and I ended up really liking the random look of the test page.

Ooh, I really like the way this looks. It would make a great collage on canvas or postcards or background for ATCs. I always wondered how one would go about getting that overlay look. Very cool! Hugs.

What? the first time I commented didn't take. Well, try again. OOOh, I love this. I love the vintage feel. This would make a great wall picture or collage. Maybe copy it a number of times and use it for ATCs or postcards. I especially like the grunge and plant overlay. I always wondered how other artists got that look. Keep it up...it's very cool! Hugs. bb
