It was late, and I couldn't upload it to the AfA PB account, so I've uploaded it to my own and have edited it in along with Yami's

Fantastic challenge entries everyone!

Gorgeous arts everyone!!!!!

I was in the same boat as a lot of other people here with not being inspired by the quote, challenge... But I was finalizing a wallie this morning and I realized that the quote actually fit the wallie perfect! All I needed to do was find a place for it.

Gorgeous! I thought about using that subject for the quote too but didn't get around to it. Love how you dealt with it though

Here is the tut that Ikorni requested.

How to make this in Photoshop CS5. NOTES: -I don't remember which of the brushes I used from the packs, so experiment with them. -I used the color from the second couple pic that I chose, so you might have to adjust your coloring to accomedate your art. -I might be wrong with the fog brushes since I've redone my brush palette since I've made this.

Spoiler:

1) Open a new document, 500x180. Fill with white.

2) Create 3 transparent layers. Download this pack and use 3 brushes. One brush for each layer. On the first layer, I used #aed0e1. Second layer, #237ba9. Third layer, #237ba9. All set to Normal, 100%.

3) Create another transparent layer. Using one of these fog brushes, and this color, #237ba9, brush onto the document. Set to difference, 100%.

4) Create an Invert Adjustment layer. Normal, 100%. Make a stamp of the current artwork.

5) Take your favorite picture of a couple you like, and paste it onto your document. Erase what you don't like. Set to Hard Light, 100%. Go back to the stamp and with the smudge brush, clean up behind your couple.

6) Take another picture of your couple, I chose mine because it resembled the first time I believed I could ship them, and paste it on to your document. Set to Soft Light, 100%. Smudge out what you don't like.

7) Duplicate that picture and blur it out. Set to Overlay, 100%.

8) Open this picture by So-Ghislaine and paste it into your document. Blur this out and set to Overlay, 100%.

9) Take that same picture from So-Ghislaine and paste another copy back into your document. Set to Hard Light, 100%. Create a layer mask and erase most of the picture only the top part of the key should be barely visible and to the right of your couple.

10) COLORING
-Curves: Increase Contrast (RGB)
-Gradient Map: 3e92bd to 01050c. Set to Soft Light, 100%.
-Hue/Saturation: Colorize Checked! 241, 34, +10. Set to Hard Light, 50%.
-Color Fill Layer: 062535, set to Exclusion, 100%.

11) Create a stamp. Use Topaz Clean, default. Set to Normal, 50%.

12) Create another stamp. Use Paint Daubs, 1, 1. Set to Normal, 40%.

13) TEXT
-John and Teyla texts: Sverige Script Decorated Demo. 30 pt. Color #ffffff.
-&: Saturday, Sunday, Monday. 36 pt. Color #000000. Set to Soft Light, 100%.

14) Add a watermark, if you do, and you are done!

Let me know if you have any questions.

Gorgeous entries, everyone!

Hmm..... May or may not have an entry. Have an incredibly busy weekend ahead of me, but I might be able to sneak in some PS time.
