This month the photo we were given for this challenge from Cee at Cee’s Photography. She held a poll to see which one we would like to edit. The majority went for this photo:
So firstly I went to GIMP and added a cartoon filter to define the edges of the green foliage on the tree.
Then I went to Photoscape and cropped it. I played around with some of their preset filters and came up with this painted look. It was too harsh so I then went to Lightroom and decreased the clarity just to soften the edges of the building which gave it a more painted look.
It is hosted by Stacy at Visual Venturing if you want to join this challenge:

Hi Raewyn, it is amazing, that we went the same direction, to the photoshop filters list – heading for the painted look, and still came up with something completely different. wonderful work… a lesson on the possibilities.

Thanks so much. I am not a competitive person so I love looking at what everyone else does and I did notice a few of us did similar edits.
