Hello friends, 

Welcome to Texture Tuesday. I'm so glad you are here.

This Week's TT Challenge details

In honour of Shutter Sister's month long celebration of Elevate the Everyday (more HERE) I thought it would be fun to match today's Elevate prompt which is.....Looking Down.... 

In celebration of Tracey's beautiful new book.... I'd love to send one lucky TT'er a copy of Elevate the Everyday. To enter, join today's TT link-up and leave a comment below stating one of your favorite everyday, ordinary moments..... I will announce the winner on Sunday. The contest will close on Saturday at midnight. 

So for this week, your image must center around 'look down' and contain at least one layer of any of my textures. And why not pop over to Shutter Sisters and link-up there as well.

I have a new texture for you today. I call this one dream-it.

Click HERE to download dream-it. Want free textures? Be sure to join the Texture Lovin' List HERE.

For my image up top I simply opened it in PS and added a layer of dream-it at soft light 80% opacity...then applied a fairly high gaussian blur filter.... which basically allowed me to borrow the tones rather than the texture. 

Before we start linking up.... let's talk next week's TT theme..... 

Tuesday, August 21st Texture Tuesday Guidelines are:

Your image must contain at least one layer of today's texture, Dream It. That's it...that's all.

New to Texture Tuesdays? Here's the short and sweet TT rules.

• please link back to the Café. You can grab the TT button HERE, if you wish.
