Texture Tuesday - The Free and Easy eDition

Note to self:


My recipe:












Last week someone asked me why I used gradients. The reason is that when a texture is square and the photo is not and if I don't want to stretch the texture I duplicate it and blend it in the middle with gradients. Easy peasy!
