PhotoShop Fridays!

Have I mentioned that I love PhotoShop Fridays at jessicasprague.com.  Sure I know most of the techniques that are shared - but I don't always remember to use them, the templates are great and I am able to add another layout (or two) to my "to be printed" folder.

This first template/class was on creating your own photo strip (which I love to do on my layouts)  I used a map from google on the background and added a few papers from designers at jessicasprague.com

If you look at the top left corner of the layout, I added an extra photo strip with random images from our trip to Chicago.  If you look extra close, you might see that each image represents a letter of the alphabet, spelling out the word 'Chicago'. My daughter and I enjoyed this alphabet scavenger hunt through the city and are looking forward to trying it again.  A fun way to see things around you a bit differently.

This PhotoShop Friday was on adding a calendar to a layout.  I created a clipping mask for each date and it was super easy to add the pictures in as they were taken.  This would also be a great layout to use as a cover page for a vacation album, or as an advent countdown at Christmas time.

I am now caught up on all PhotoShop Fridays for the year (I bought the entire bundle at once, saving a bit of money) I wonder what this Friday will bring.....You can also go back and purchase individual editions at any time, in case you see a template that catches your eye!

Have a great day...by the Shore.
