Food/Beverage Still Life

Your Food Still Life will be a 12-6-1 assignment, with one exception. You are to use a creative frame on the final photo as well as a creative filter. I want you to EXPERIMENT with several ways to frame your photo and several filters. Consult PhotoShop 'Help' for tips and techniques and tutorials. Also, play around with the 'styles' button in your layers window (it looks like a cursive 'f'). Each of your six edited photos should show me different techniques and filters you tried before settling on your best final photo.

Here are a few sites that might help with creative framing:
