[quote=Boofers;126637]Thru one together real quick, Three layers, normal background, copy blured real bad, mask out the blured center of flower , used select color to try and bring out the pink. added new layer, switched to color mode and selected the pink color and painted to highlight...I think I should have went all the way and had a stand alone flower,,,anyway made it look how I like it,,,when painting the pink on a the new layer, I ran it around the edge of the blured flower below,,the pink fringe.

you do realize iam going to be trying to do these steps , to see what i can do
like the effect and thankyou for explainin how you did it ,my trouble is as am still very new to ps , i havent had much to do with any of it ,so when i start playing , i end up loosing track on what i have pressed etc Am goin to start writing down each step i do. But must admit it is a bit of fun just seeing the amount of effects it can achieve,
