Smudge Brushing Ornament

Mary, thanks for sending all the info on smudge tool brushing. I am about to read it but, typically, thought I'd have another go WITHOUT reading it. I took this macro of a christmas bauble but didn't like the end of the pattern so thought I'd try smudging it back into shape. Actually I didn't use the smudge tool brush but went to filters -liquify and actually found it easier to control the brush using that method. You can see that I have neatened up the end of the curly wurly pattern.
