Hi Everyone. Thing have been frantic here. We spent the week looking on the internet and going to every store close to us so Kristen could try on wedding dresses. We thought we had plenty of time for this. But she found one she loved that was being discontinued. She had to make sure that was the one she truly wanted. Of course it was the very first one she tried on. It looked so much like her. Young, romantic and beautiful. So that sent us on a dress frenzy. Now that THE wedding dress has been ordered. She is on to bridesmaid colors. This week it is eggplant. A gorgeous dark purple with a hint of magenta in it. That is the color stuck in my head so I made a freebie paper. It is posted at "The Shop" . I do hope you have subscribed to the shop. I have some really nice goodies planned. I will start sending out subscriber notices to just those that have subscribed there. Some people are here at the blog only to learn, I hate to bother everyone with e-mail notices. So if you visi...

After reading Pioneer Woman's Photography post about making an image with rounded corners, I thought I would go over using a clipping mask one more time. This concept is great because it uses non-destructive editing. Here is one I made with an image of little Miss G. I used PW's Lovely & Ethereal and her Seventies action on the image. I used the rounded rectangle shape and made my shape. Distressed the edges, then saved it as a png file. From the bottom layer going up.... You will have your background color, lets say white. Then you add your mask to the next layer up. Then your image goes on top. You can clip your image and mask together a couple of ways. Highlight your image layer. Hold down the alt key and click on the line between the image layer and the mask. Find that difficult? Go to Layer, Group with Previous. (top tool bar) After your image is clipped, you can move it around or resize it as you like. But you image stays in it's original condition. Hence non-de...

Skeletal Mess (aka Ghostbones) has posted a wonderful tutorial about how he processes his Art. Not at all what I was doing! Do go and give it at try! I just love it when I am learning something new! Here is the tutorial. The Resting Place I also just posted it as kimi's Kreative homework #68 , so do check in if you get a chance and let's see what the others have come up with. =) Here is my take on his instructions. I used the same two suggested textures with the same opacities that he used. I did have to go back and use levels to lighten it after changing my blend mode to multiply. Lastly I used the burn tool and burned around the edges. See how the dark edges make your eyes go inward? Happy Weekend Everyone!! ~kimi~
