…in the local Tailor Shop’s window, I figured some of you may get a bit bored with buttons. I decided to ‘play’ a bit with a few new shots, and hit upon the perfect Photoshop (TM) filter that, I feel, really did the trick–Smudge Stick!
Here are three more, which I’m certain you’ll agree look a bit more intriguing after the filter application:
Buttons and Zippers
Red and Brown Buttons
Spools, Pins and Bobbin
There you have it! Although these took quite a bit of time to develop, it was worth it, don’t you feel?








interesting – I’ve been poking about the filters in the Photoshop Elements 8 I have – I can’t understand half the stuff but every once in a while I take another shot and discover something new.
It’s all about ‘experimenting’, Lynne…I call it ‘playing’! If at first you don’t succeed, click Undo…and try again! Thanks again for stopping by!
I’m not bored! love your shot of the bag of buttons. I keep studying it. Backing away from the buttons now. . .B.
For some weird reason, I am fascinated by all these different types of buttons, sorted so lovingly by the seamstresses, who I believe are Russian emigre’s.
I haven’t seen that one, it has a really interesting effect I can see why you like it.
It worked quite well, didn’t it, Leanne? First time I’ve ever used it! When I’m looking through Filters, I usually try each one, until I get the effect I like…and if nothing works, oh well…move right along! [?] !!!
