If your curious as to how the above image was made let me say this….it’s not worth it! Hopefully, we’ll get to cover the details in future posts but if you must…..

1. Soaked paper in dark brown colored tea for a couple hours
2. After fully dried, roughly tore a a rectangle.
3. Burned the edges with a lighter
4. Snapped a picture (covered desk lamp with a paper towel for soft light and on top of black laptop sleeve so I could easily quickly select it in post.)
5. Opened Photoshop CS5 and wrote text on top of image. (originally wrote everything in cursive but I couldn’t make anything out. Is it just me or has anyone else forgot how to read and write in cursive? Can we just abolish it?)
6. Gaussian blur 9.5, overlay, opacity 50%
7. Levels adjustment
8. Refine edge into new layer
9. Blend option, drop shadow distance-69, spread-17, size-109
10.  Should have just typed in WordPress, would have been easier to read
11. Lesson learned
