Today we had another wonderful lesson from the amazing Kim Klassen's Beyond Layers class...A Colour Storyboard.
This class goes for the entire year..it is amazing how much i am learning. Photoshop used to be a huge mystery to me, and now because of Kim, it is becoming almost second nature!

Anyone who knows me can tell you that i am not a computer geek, in fact i do everything possible to stay away from them. But now in this digital camera age, i have been forced to learn....and it has been so rewarding!!
In today's lesson we learned how to make colour palettes around our photos...
too cool! I now can make circles, squares, rectangles, hearts...you name the shape and i can do it!!
Using the colour picker, i am able to pick the colours right out of my photo and put them into the shape...how cool is that?
Once again, thank you dear Kim!
Until next time...

Nancy Jean, Great work on this. I have yet to do my color story. I have always liked your photo, and the About is not personal, but I like the part about inspiring yourself. This is a great color story.
ReplyDeleteNancy Jean love this daisies are the best such happy flowers. Love your colour board, Kim is the best isn't she she has really opened my eyes to so much. Thanks for visiting my blog see you on the road

Your coneflowers are so sweet looking at that angle. I love the color circles and bit of frame you added (I must have missed the part on how to make shapes). It is amazing what all photoshop can do once you know the right buttons to click, and little slider to slide, right? :) You are doing fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Beverly, instead of using the rectangle or the circle, i tried using some shapes, like hearts...it worked! This class is just so inspirational!
DeleteThis is a magnificent image and perfect for the color palette! Really nicely done. ;-> I have seen others do this and was so glad to see Kim do a tutorial on it.
ReplyDeletehi Lissa, Kim has given us so many great tutorials! I am now starting a journal dedicated to all that i am learning. so fun!
Deletedear Nancy your photo is delightful!! well done indeed :)
ReplyDeleteI like the changes you've made to your blog. I also love your story board.
ReplyDeleteI like your header, the flowers are just beautiful, but I know what you mean, the more I look at my own header the less I am satisfied with it...there is always something I want to tweak. : )
ReplyDeleteHi Jessica. I guess tweaking is a good thing...it means we are growning!
DeleteLovely!! I hope to get to the point where Elements is 2nd nature. I am still in the very beginner stages, but the more I do the more confidence I get.
ReplyDeleteHi sarah, Kim Klassen's classes has made all the difference! She speaks my language!!
DeleteI love your color storyboard and the photo...so complementary to each other! Now, where do I sign up to follow your blog????
