Text & Tea

 My cup of green tea has gone arty today.

In this photo I used the focal color edit just on the roses and then applied a texture.


The texture used on all photos was Portrait by Kim Klassen.  The teacup was an oddball from TJ Maxx it is marked Queens made in Maylasia.

Thank you for stopping and viewing my tea.
