Whew! Well, I've been aching for spring around here, but woke up to 6 inches of snow this morning, so spring is still a ways off. But being cooped up inside isn't all bad, right?! It's given me time to perfect a new action set: my Nichole Van Tints and Textures actions.
This new set is amazing. Not only does it have several amazing vintage tinted actions, but it also includes my new Texture Palette. This Texture Palette has revolutionized using textures for me. The action is incredibly fast, allowing you to integrate a texture into your photo in under 15 seconds, start to finish! The Texture Palette opens a palette of the 12 textures, allowing you to
choose which one you want to use. From there, the action inserts the
chosen texture into your photo, resizes it to perfectly fit your photo,
separates the color of the texture from the texture itself (a VERY
useful thing) and then allows you to adjust the exposure of the texture
to match that of your photo. Did I mention that it does all of this in less than 15 seconds? Wow!!
This fabulous new Tints and Textures set includes 13 yummy vintage-toned actions and 12 enormous high-res texture files, as well as 3 Texture Palette actions, giving you quick, fast results! I love this set so much, I even created a little video demo of it. You can see it on our Flourish Emporium Facebook page here:
