CoffeeShop "Sweet Pastel" Photoshop/PSE Fine Art Action!


Spring is here and I just wrote a brand new beautiful spring-inspired fine art action to share with you today! I call this one "Sweet Pastel" and it is lovely on so many images such as portraits, florals, still life, etc. It is also fully adjustable.

Do you want to download hundreds and hundreds of CoffeeShop actions, Lightroom presets, and digital designs in one file? I currently have a special going on with my CoffeeShop Action Download pack. Purchase of this pack gives you hundreds of my favorite actions (including exclusive ones not found here for free!!!), all of my favorite holiday digital designs, and free updates for up to two years after your initial purchase! For $4 more you can upgrade to my Mega Download Pack (second "buy now" link) which includes everything mentioned above and hundreds of professional storyboards, textures, frames, etc.

This blog is a one-woman business created and run by me. I design everything you can download on this blog myself and purchases of my convenient download packs support this site and allow me to keep on posting freebies and tutorials. In fact, without my generous readers and sponsors The CoffeeShop Blog wouldn't even be possible. So I really appreciate every purchase and donation. I have best readers!!! :-)

Original images used in this post (pink flowers, purple flowers, model and building, model and flowers, close-up portrait, grass).








CoffeeShop "Sweet Pastel" Photoshop/PSE Action Tutorial:


This is the original image.


This is the edit after running "Sweet Pastel".

I usually only adjust a few layers (Contrast Boost and Save the Whites).


For this edit I turned down the opacity of Contrast Boost  to 18%.


Then I turned off the Save the Whites layer completely. 


I love the final edit on this image. So pretty and feminine. I would love to see your own edits using this action on my Facebook page.

    1. I just checked and it is working. You might want to use a different browser to download it.

  2. I have no problem downloading or making the .png file for the thumbnail but nothing inside the zip file can be dragged and dropped or copied and pasted. Not the file folder and not the .atn or .png file. I'm so bummed because I really wanted to play with this. I had loaded a couple other ones and then did another just to see if it was a problem with my computer but it's working fine. After having the issue, I tried extracting the file instead from the zip with Extraction Wizard and the file required a password? That doesn't happen with the other ones.

    1. Try a different unzipping program, there is no password protection on any of my files!

    2. Hi Rita: I used 7zip and it worked! Odd that I had no trouble with the couple of others I'd downloaded but whatever works! I'll likely spend the rest of the day playing...
