The original of this image showed the Scaley-Breasted Lorikeets sitting on top of a wooden nesting box at Blackbutt Nature Reserve, Newcastle, N.S.W. They seemed the perfect pair. This lorikeet frequents all along the Eastern coastline of N.S.W, and Qld.
Followed clues from Kim Klassen's techniques on using textures/layers here. Though I don't have PhotoShop, I do have Corel's PhotoImpactX3 and found I was able to use the principles demonstrated (thanks Kim), in differing ways. That was a fun discovery!
A long time ago I'd downloaded BG-Bday-tan, suited for digital scrapbooking from Delicious Moments/DSP Designers. That is my textured background starter.

Carol, this is gorgeous, and especially special to me since I have several pet birds!
I love the texture you chose for this. I looks very much like a painting.
Thank you so much for sharing this at The Creative Exchange.
Have a wonderful day!

Beautiful work!
Beautiful picture and I love the background texture. I have 5 birds, love birds! I also have PhotoImpact X3 but switched to PhotoShop Elements this past spring. It's not too difficult. Good luck with it and I look forward to seeing more of your images.
Cool background texture.

I took a look at Kim Klassen's blog and thought her tutorials were interesting but I have Paint Shop Pro...
