Edit Me: Week 20

This week's Edit Me Challenge was right up my alley since I've been taking lots of pictures of my newborn these last two months.

The picture was taken by Kala at The Wishful Lamb.

Here is the SOOC:

And here is my edit:

Process: 

-Adjusted in ACR (blacks, yellows, and luminance).

-Opened in PSE9. 

-Adjusted levels.

-Duplicated Layer and set blending mode to Soft Light (70% opacity). 

-Added a warm gradient-layer mask to remove from skin.

-Defined eyes and smoothed the skin just a tad.

-Moved picture to a baby announcement template (totally can't remember where I got it from). 

-Added text. 

-Resized and sharpened. 

Enjoy your week! :)
