I *Heart* Actions

Today I discovered Atomic Cupcake.

They have a great assortment of Photoshop actions (for Elements and the full Photoshop program).  Check out this layout:

Theweddingpartysm

All patterned paper, flowers, pearls, stick pin, metal embellishment and stitching are Tara Sroka Designs.  I used three different very cool actions from Atomic Cupcake to create:

1. the scalloped edge
2. the inking
3. the exposed cardboard.

Check it out.  The original flower is on the left and the altered one is on the right...

How cool is that?!  I'm seriously in love!
