Hi Friends~
Happy August!
Hope everyone is enjoying a great summer!
It's been Hot here in Texas and to be outside means
you have to be in the water or stay in the AC.
Lot's going on here at Rose Garden Cottage
and I hope to share a few home updates soon.
Today I have a tutorial for editing your photos
into watercolor pics by using PicMonkey.
I have shared this one in the past but thought it worth passing on again.

Recently I cut a few long stems from my garden to bring inside and enjoy.
Lovely blooms of pink, red and yellow.
Using my photo programs, I created a pretty watercolor of this bouquet.
I use PicMonkey, or for quicker edits, PhotoScape.
Each has it's own specialties.
Here's another idea~
The photo was a little blurred.
But perfect as a watercolor.
From real to watercolor.

Lastly, a little bouquet of knock out roses.
From real to watercolor.
These watercolors were all completed using PicMonkey.
If you use this program and do not know how to get this look,
open the edits section under Effects then scroll to Posterize.
I had to experiment a lot to find this for watercolor.
You would never think posterize would contain this edit, but it does.
From there you can raise or lower the percentages and degree of the changes then save your work.
In PicMonkey,
I have the Royale version
which is a pay ever two years program, but I'm not sure the free program has this edit version for watercolor.
You can try and see.
Have a great first week of August and thanks for stopping by.
