Have you ever tried photoshop actions on your photos? Oh my, they are so much fun!! Considering I am completely useless in photoshop, these actions mean that I can change my pictures easily and get great results! If I had to do it all myself....well I'd never be able to do it, but with one swift click of a button (after they have been installed) they work their wonder and I have fabulous photos!
I had seen several scrapbookers using them and always loved them,but never knew where to get them from and I didn't really want to pay heaps for something I didn't know if I would use a lot. Well.... Steph was over on Friday night (she felt sorry for me cause DH was working until midnight) and I was transfering pics I had taken on her thumb drive. While doing so I noticed she had altered some pics with an acid action. Needless to say I begged and pleaded with her to share the action with me (she actually was more than happy to share!) and now I am obsessed! I found a site that had heaps of free actions here and I am having fun.
This uses the acid action. Just love this picture. I also tried a colour pop action on it as well.
This one is black and white with spot colour.
This one has a barely vintage action....
See I told you how cool they are!
I have also been working flat out on a couple of mini albums for my Mum and my MIL for Mothers Day! I am finished!! YAY!!! Will share another time!
Finished a layout last night. Not entirely happy with it as I find the background colour is a bit sickly but I tried so many different backgrounds but none of them wanted to work for me, so I finally settled for this one! Till next update....
