After seeing Judy's terrific pics of the puppies and cats, I remembered seeing a tutorial on doing something called "smudge painting". The tutorial I found is for Photo Shop, but I bet some of you artistic folks like Judy and others could do it in PSP. Looks like Judy would already be a pro! Here's a link if some of you might be interested at least to get some ideas:

I'm not artistic enough to even attempt it LOL.

What I did was very easy. I sort of adapted the tut Columbine posted. I'll be back later with how I did it. I have to do it again so I can write it down.
Thanks for the Link.

I've posted a tut to show how I combined the cats anf flowers with the brushstroke. It can be found in as Hard as Nails. Hope you will try as it's very easy.

Thanks. That was only about a 5 minute try, but I also had a great subject with which to work. Off now to try your Hard as Nails tut.

WOW, Joanne! That sure looks like more than 5 minutes worth of work to me! That looks terrific. Wouldn't it be great to do one to print at say an 8x10 to frame? Looks like a painting to me. Of course, you'd have to do one of all the g'kids because they'd all want one LOL!
