And that's it!I don't remember where I got the Sunny Days and Sugar Cookie Actions, but I am researching it and when I find out who it is from, I will give CREDIT and let you all know b/c they were free and are sooo much fun to use!
As always, head on over to I Heart Faces to check out more fun edited photos!

Thanks for the breakdown - I usually do a better job laying out my steps but I got lazy today. Beautiful work.
I love your basic edit, plus Fix-It #s 2 and 3. :)
Oh wow! I love all of your edits, very nice! Thanks also for putting down what you did for each one. I haven't started taking photos in RAW because I wasn't sure how to use RAW program that comes with PSE, your example will help a lot! Maybe I'll take some RAW photos today :)
Blessings!
