The Story:
I almost discouraged her. She wanted to play but I didnt think shed like it and didnt want her to be disappointed. So glad I listened to her. Shes not naturally athletic but her height stands in her favor. She has quite the stellar serve but more importantly she enjoys it. Happy to support that. March 2013

Process Notes:
Cropped the black and white photo using the rounder corner shape tool + paths palette, placed inside the plastic pocket over the artsy background and applied AnnaStyle shadows to both :: Edited the background photo by increasing the Curves, applying a Color Burn blend mode, decreased the Opacity value and then converted to black and white :: Blended the image with layer mask + gradient tool technique :: Added Soft Light blend mode to FlowerTransfer :: Applied Hard Light and Screen blending modes to the ButterflyGlows :: Added stitching stamped in black on a new layer :: Added remaining title, wordtransfer and words.
