Sequins Freebie - Preview

2009-07-13T10:30:00.019+02:00

Hiya again,
i have just purchased and downloaded a preview
template from Scrappin Mommy Designs
who is now Exclusive at Divine Digital.

It is absolutely gorgeous and easy to use.
Everything is in layers and can easily be recolored
to your own taste.

Just click on the preview and it will take you to the
sequins download page.

I can really recommend it and Angelas (ScrappinMommy) designs
they are all very high quality.
You can find the template and her other creations
here.

And the best thing is, they don't cost you an arm
and a leg.
They are all very reasonable priced.

While you are there you may want to check out the
other designers as well.

So without further rambling here is the preview for
the sequins using the above described template.

Sequins - Freebie

2009-07-13T09:35:00.006+02:00

I have made a couple of sequins and thought
that you might like to have them.

I have no preview for them as i am currently
backing up all my files to my external drive.
So you will just have to download them to see
if you can use them.
If not then just trash them.
Lol!

I hope at least some of you might find a use
for them.

Please leave some love if you do download them.
Thanks a bunch in advance, and the link is below

I'm Back!

2009-07-13T09:11:00.003+02:00

Well at least i think i am.
Apart from not feeling well healthwise and
loosing my Mojo, I have been very busy
learning how to use Photoshop.
I am currently in a German group and have
nearly come to the end of all the lessons.
I then hope to continue my Photoshop journey
by going on learning how to use it for creating
the different Scrap Elements.

At the moment i am also polishing up my PhotoImpact
skills and learning Powerpoint.

So now i hope to be able to create something for you
all and start blogging again.

How time has flown, the last time i posted it was
Christmas and before we turn around it will be
the same again.

So here's to a new start.
Thanks for stopping by and reading my ramble.
Until next time

Seasons Greetings

CATW Quick Page

2008-12-16T09:33:00.008+01:00

Good Morning to you all,
i just wanted to thank all those lovely people out there that took the time out of their
busy schedule to come and download my part of the CATW Train and for leaving some
wonderful comments.

This means a lot to me and shows me that my work is appreciated and inspires me to carry
on creating.

In the next couple of days i will be having a couple of Freebies for you all, they coordinate
with the CATW Mega Kit.
I created them whilst doing my Papers but didn't want to bog you all down.
There have been so many kits, Elements, Quickpages and Papers made, that i decided just
to give you my Papers first.

So if you wish to see and grab my Elements just stop by in the next few days and pick them up, not forgetting of course to leave me a little love before you leave.

For today i have made a Quickpage using a couple of things that i created to match, i am new to Quickpage creating so i hope you don't think it is a little busy.

This time i have made it 3600x3600 and it's 300DPI so that it can be printed without loss of quality.
I also have left the white background and the "2008" unmerged for you and to make it easier to add photos and adapt to another year if needed.

Good Morning to you all,
it's time for another freebie.

Using my Teal Deal Quickpage, I made my first Quickpage Template.
It is a psd file with all layers intact so that you can just pop in your
own papers and Elements.

The size is 1200x1200 and 300DPI, for all those that like to print their
Scrapbook pages.
The next one i make will be larger, that's if my PC doesn't choke while i am
creating it.

Free - Teal Deal - Quick Page

2008-11-17T10:39:00.014+01:00

I have made my first Quickpage and i am very proud of
the results.
I have used the Mini Kit - Teal Deal and just added a
couple of extras.

It is 1200x1200 300 DPI, as i didn't really know
what size you have to make them, this is still a
learning curve for me.

All has been merged except the white background inside
frame to enable you to insert your Photos with0ut any
problems.

And it has been saved as a psd file, for easy use with all programs.
So i hope it is of use to anyone and you enjoy using it.

One of my first PSP Scripts - Free for you to use.

2008-11-12T09:49:00.023+01:00

Hiya
long time no post, but i have been busy.
I am currently learning to record and edit scripts in PSP and
am working on two new kits.

One is for the massive "Christmas Around the World Colab"
and the other is nearly finished and will probably be uploaded as soon
as i get the previews and stuff zipped and uploaded.
So there is quite a bit to look forward to.

For todays goodie i am giving away one of my first PSP Scripts,
which has been tested in PSP 10 and 11.
I cannot guarantee that it will work in the earlier versions, but
would be interested to hear from you if it works for you.

It is a button, but not just any kind of simple button.
No, i have come up with a button in the shape of an Eye.
You will need Eye Candy Impact Bevel to be able to use it,
and you can download a demo version here.

You get to choose your own color, gradient or pattern which makes
it easier for all the designers out there to match it to the kit of their
choice, the bevel settings can also be chosen by the user.

The script includes my pspshape, the script, my bevel settings
and the instructions how to use it.

As usual this is for Personal Use Only, please respect my TOU which is

If you download please leave me a little comment, it doesn't take up much more

I have been testing some new actions for Angela over at ScrappinMommyDesigns
and I am pretty jazzed about them!
Angela has only been making actions for a couple of weeks now and she is a fab designer with great ideas. It's a great pleasure and honor to be able to work with her and believe me i am hard to please and really bug her. But she takes this all in her stride and with a big smile and great humor.
At the moment she has quite a few actions some are to purchase but i know for sure that a couple are freebies. All have been tested in CS2 and CS3 without any problems or glitches.
Her newest action being a Poinsetta Flower is currently still in testing. Please make sure you stop by her Blog to see where you download or buy them. You won't be disapointed.

Using the actions and co-ordinating with the Color Swatch Challenge from KimB at DSO
i have packed up a small bonus pack of Elements for you.
Please don't forget to go to Angela's Blog and leave her also a bit of love.

As usual these Elements are for Personal Use Only, please respect my TOU which is included in the file. If you download please leave me a little comment, it doesn't take up more of your time and i really appreciate everyone of you that does so.

Mason Jar

This Tutorial was written from my own ideas any resemblance to other tutorials
is purely coincidental.
You may use this tutorial for personal use only. Do not Distribute in other groups,
post on a website or send in email without express permission of me.
.

Please DO NOT script my tutorial.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Supplies Needed

Paint Shop Pro – I used PSPX but with slight alterations
the same results could probably be achieved in other
versions.
You can download a demo of the latest version here

A tube of your choice to fill your jar or download mine here

A gradient for the lid, you may download mine here

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notes:

All settings remain the same unless otherwise stated
This Tutorial assumes you have a working knowledge of PSP

OK…got everything, are you ready? Then let's get started!
Please be sure to save often as a psp file, doing this ensures that if your
Computer crashes or PSP freezes you won’t have to start from scratch.

1.

Open a new transparent image with the dimensions 600x600 pixel
Resolution 300 dpi
File – New – ( Ctrl+N )

This gives us enough room to work with, we can crop later

2.

In your Materials Palette close the foreground Color
And choose white for your background Color

Select your preset tool (P)
Rounded Rectangle – Anti Alias Checked – Create as Vector checked
Solid line style – width 8,00

These are my settings and are only a guide, please feel free to experiment
with your own settings

3.

From x100 y200
(the size is your choice)
To x385 y 585
draw a rectangle
Objects - Align – Horiz.Center in Canvas
Convert to Raster layer
Layers – Convert to Raster Layer

4.

Still using the preset shape tool, rounded rectangle
Draw another rectangle, a little bit smaller in width
and height,
Objects – Align – Horiz.Center in Canvas
Convert to Raster layer
Layers – Convert to Raster Layer

5.

Move into position so that it looks something like this
I have filled my bottom layer with a light grey
This makes it easier for you to see what it is supposed to look like

You should have 3 layers
the bottom layer, which should be empty
the middle layer with your larger rectangle
and the top layer with your smaller rectangle

6.

Close the bottom layer
Layers – Merge – Merge Visible

Selections – Select all – Float – Defloat
Layers – New Raster Layer
Effects – 3D Effects – Cutout

Layers – New Raster Layer
Repeat the Cutout with Horizontal –21 (minus)
Deselect
Selections - Select None

7.

On your large rectangle layer, lower the opacity to about 45
Again these settings are only a guide
Feel free to experiment with your own settings

Layers – Merge – Merge Visible
We now should have something looking like this

8.

Select your preset tool (P)
Rounded Rectangle – Anti Alias Checked – Create as Vector checked
Solid line style – width 8,00

Draw a rectangle, about the same width
As your jar, when you are pleased with the size
Objects - Align – Horiz.Center in Canvas
Convert to Raster layer
Layers – Convert to Raster Layer

9.

Move your rectangle a little up so that it looks like the
Cap is sitting tightly on your Jar and a little of the jar neck
Is showing, like this

Selections – Select All - Float - Defloat

In the materials Palette change your foreground color
To a gradient of your choice,
(remembering if you want to save as a template to choose a gradient
that you can colorize easily.)

With your flood fill tool, fill selection.
Do not Deselect

10.

Layers – New Raster Layer
Effects – 3D Effects – Cutout

Layers – New Raster Layer
Repeat the Cutout with Horizontal –21 (minus)
Deselect
Selections - Select None

11.

Adding a reflection or highlight on your Jar.

Activate your jar layer, this is the second layer
Layers – New Raster Layer
With the selection tool, rounded rectangle

Draw a selection, on the left side of the jar about 80 width and 375 height
Flood fill with white, select none
Selections – Select None

12.

Adjust – Blur – Gaussian Blur

move a little more over to the left.
And in the layer palette lower the opacity to about 80

13.

That’s it, you’ve made your first mason jar and now
Should have something looking like this

To preserve the layers save as a PSD file,
Save as and choose PSD from the dropdown menu
Using this method enables all programs to open and use the files.
Some designers prefer the PNG file option to save
But here you have to save each layer separately and they cannot
be opened by all programs.

Use the following settings if saving as a PNG file

File export – PNG Optimizer
Colors:
check 16,7 million Colors (24bit)
Transparency:
Check Alpha Channel Transparency
Existing image or layer transparency
Leave the other tabs alone.
Click ok, name it and save in a folder of your choice

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for trying my Tutorial,
I hope you have enjoyed creating this with me.

If you have any comments or questions, please email me here.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Filling your Mason Jar:

To fill your finished jar, duplicate the jar layer
Layers – Duplicate
Highlight the bottom Jar layer
Layers – New Raster Layer
(This layer should be between the two jar layers)
You can then fill with whatever you please
I also lowered the opacity of my jar layers and
Set the blend mode to soft light, but this
Is just a personal touch.
Merge visible if wished
