THAT is really cool - I love how you put a green color in her eyes - what were your steps?

Default steps
woops - sorry i forgot to post these yesterday

1 - cut caitlin out of photo and pasted on a white rastor layer
2 - added a monochrome, chanel mixer layer - just fiddled till i liked..
3 - added a beige colour filter - low opacity
4 - duplicated layer
5 - cut eyes and fiddled with hue and saturation for the green
6 - added to a plain layer and fiddled with opacity ..
7 - added a frame from a free plugin (sorry just downloaded a few and not sure where this one was from)

i really liked the change - something different, im slowly - very slowly, learning about layers and what can be done.......

Frame from a free plug-in? Do you know which one? Man, if I spent money on something I could have gotten for free....

Way cool! and although you didn't ask for opinions, I would suggest considering removing the clothing below her face so all that remains is her profile. This is really lovely!
