sucked into the digital vortex....and I kinda like it :)

Photoshop and Illustrator have been calling my name lately....

Partly due to taking some awesome-fabulous-amazing classes at Renee Pearson and partly how mess free digital scrapping and designing is. Look ma - no glitter in my hair! :) :)

My first little project is playing around with watercolour.....I really love this technique and could see myself using this a lot. Once I get my brushes all packaged up I will be offering my first .abr brush file to those of you that are into digi :) Commercial use will be A-ok with these - no attribution required. I'll get into that later ;)

This one was a challenge to use a different Type Face for each letter, I loved this challenge - it made me pay attention to x height and heirarchy as well as ascender and descenders....it gave me some good ideas for another project!

That's it for now, going to break out the 'real paper' and glue this weekend :) :)

It's been pretty busy around here....

Hi everyone!!!

I wish I could have been a better blogger this last little while....but sometimes work just won't let me :)

I've been taking some fun classes over at Renee Pearson.com and here is a little bit of what I've been creating: I used Photoshop CS4 for these, but they would work in PSE as well. Both projects are my own design, just using the techniques taught in class.

Vanishing Lines assignment in Text Fx Class

These are all for digital scrapbooking of course, but it certainly gives me some ideas for some Christmas cards using REAL paper lol!!! *especially that top one :) :)

I think I am finally getting the hang of this! (let me know what you think though, could you see yourself using that phrase, or maybe that chipboard on a layout??). Just curious :)


Hope everyone is doing well and I will talk to you all soon!!!
