Sharp Eyes and Edge Overlays
This week I’m writing a tutorial about how to use edge overlays and I decided to scrap this photo for my layout sample. Often my layouts for tutorials are not my favorites and may not even be printed. One or two have even been trashed! But I’m very pleased with this photo and this layout. [...]
Photo Projects Tutorial Part II
Last weekend I posted my tutorial for my local photography club, in which I showed how to create a photo project and I promised I would show how to make a template from it. Templates are useful when you want to make multiple copies of a project, just changing the photo(s). 1. Open up the [...]
Photo Cards and Other Photo Projects
[Note: This is for my local photography club Friday Tip, but it turned out too long for the group's forum, so I decided to post it on my blog. I was inspired to write it after attending a Introduction to Photoshop class with the club, after which another member said she wants to learn more [...]

Project 365 Day 127
My family has enjoyed several Renaissance Faires in Virginia and Maryland. The first one I ever attended was with my husband over a decade ago in California. It’s wonderful to be immersed in history, surrounded by period costumes, experiencing activities and foods of the time. Today’s visit to the Faire was even more special because [...]
