Watercolour + Photoshop

Hi Everyone,
Like I said in last post, I will tell you about the new cards I made combining one of my watercolour painting and photoshop techniques. This was my original watercolour.


Then I scanned it and treated in photoshop. First step was to change the brightness and contrast. Second changed colour range using colour balance tool. Then picking the background greens, applied a filter- angled brush strokes. This gave the following result.


Now it is possible to print multiple copies of this card. All seasonal greeting cards are ready to print.
Have a good week ahead!
Cheers,
Namrata
