Edit challange week 3

still getting things ready for the garage sale and that has kept me pretty busy so here is my new editing challenge I hope you like!
Forgive me but I did alot of things in just a touch increments
I adjusted the levels contrast and saturation just little touches to my liking
then I took a levels adjustments moved the gray slider closer to the black making the picture lighter in the midtones did it as a soft light overlay and masked it off so only the little girl was effected that way I could give her a bit of a glow. I also adjusted the color by using a solid color baby blue overlay at about 25%. The biggest changes were again using some coffee shop actions urban grit and blended it over just the balls in the picture to give them a gritty sharp look in contrast to the lil girls soft angelic appearance.  I then used the glamour action to soften her skin more and brighten her eyes a touch to help with the soft glow.  I didnt do anything major artsy to this because I want clean edits of my kids that I would wanna print so that is the direction I went with this.  The photo was provided by: Courtney
