Thistle Applying and Blending Tutorial Promo

It seems after posting my country charm artworks,I've gotten quite a few e-mails requesting a tutorial on how I apply and blend textures, while I have made a tutorial on the subject before,I decided to make a detailed and lengthy tutorial.
This tutorial took me the last two days to compose, hope it answers some questions and can be of some help.

Letting Loose .....

Letting Loose, originally uploaded by SkeletalMess.

Image textured effects were  created using the two textures posted below.
Originally the textures were to be for the cover of a book, a side project
but I thought I'd post them for others to use.  Careful, they're large files.
