before and after.. tag love....

happiest Sunday....  and happy long weekend to my american friends.....

i was making some grungy backgrounds/textures today...
and decided to make some more tags while i was at it...

then i just had to stop and take a pic or 2....

thought i'd share a before and after using 2 textures form the baker's dozen plus 3.....

mouse over to see the before...

for this image i added

texture 'the wall'

texture 'grunged good'

added a warm brown gradient map set to soft light....

then did a levels adjustment... 

.....

enjoy the rest of your weekend...
