Description

I was going for the vintage look here. I took a picture of a dried mud puddle for the cracks, added the flowers and erased the edges on a BG layer for the edge along with drop shadow and stroke effect.
Hope you like it and I think you for looking!
This tute will be included on my new DVD to be released this Summer!
