I am having so much fun surfing around and reading other bloggers
blogs. I have seen everything from too much to too little and everything
in between. I am amazed at the wonderful ideas and really well written
blogs out there.
All of my blog surfing has created a
slight "border envy" in me. Some of my fellow bloggers have such
beautifully displayed photos. Borders and groupings that make their
photos look so finished!
I found this fabulous photo display at Shers Creative Space
(she has a great blog, very creative)
I want my pictures to look like this!!!
I take a pretty good photo.
My husband and I still have a darkroom in our garage. Black and white photography has been a hobby of ours for a long time.
We have made our way into the digital age slowly but surely and I am determined to learn how to manipulate my photos like this.
I
use Photoshop to "develop" my pics now, I just don't know how to do
much else.
So, I googled "how to put borders around your photos in
Photoshop" (I love Google).
I found this tutorial http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/tutorials/ps_photoborers_as.shtml
So, I spent this morning following the tutorial and was finally able
to place a border around my angel. I used almost ALL of my patience but I
did it!
I love it!
So as not to disappoint my readers, (some day I will have more than 3) here is my Photoshop disclaimer:
Please don't expect this same perfection on ALL of my future blog posts. I don't have that much patience left.
Thank you for the nice words about my images and my blog! Your blog is definitely off to a good start. Just keep practicing with PhotoShop and you'll be an expert before you know it!
