This week, Kim asked us to focus on cups and mugs. This is one of my favorites. My sister gave it to me for Christmas one year. A gift from where she lives in Japan, which is famous for its cherry blossoms.
For this version of the image (above), I used The Coffee Shop Action for Selective Color, brushing out the black and white treatment on the flower.
This version uses the B/W Filter in PhotoShop Elements, along with a pink color fill layer at soft light blend mode, 76% opacity. A nice effect by itself, but I wanted the cherry blossom to stand out a little more.
Here's the Grunge version. This is the same as the one above with the addition of Kim Klassen's Wonderful Magic Scripted texture. Soft Light blend mode at 83%.
Here's the original image straight out of my camera, cropped to focus on the cup.
Thanks to my sweet husband for helping me capture these "mug shots."
