Monday is Inspiration Time: The Beauty of Ice & Kaleidoscopes, Freebie Download Backgrounds
It's been a while since I have done an inspiration so that is what this week will be about.
I Love Kaleidoscopes and enjoy taking "probably weird photos to some" but inspiration to me. Then make them into kaleidoscopes.
My first series will be about THE BEAUTY OF ICE. I took a photo of the ice on the glass in our catwalk at work. Here it is:
Then I made it into some kaleidoscopes to use a backgrounds, Here is a sample finished page with a color overlay added to the photo:
You can use the above page as a beginning scrapbook page if anyone likes, just punch out the white square with the photoshop magical eraser.
Here are a few of the kaleidscopes from the ice photo for you to download in the freebies section at the left if you are so inspired, especially those who live in the "winter" type of states.

You can now take these and greyscale them and use them as overlays on colors. You can leave them as they are. You can leave them colored, but lay them on another color and play with the burn, differerence, color dodge, etc. within the layers panel, etc.
Have fun, I hope someone can do something creative with them!
