Oh my...i do not know where the time has gone. You once again you must forgive me, i have been away from my dear blog way too long.
I think i am having creative attention deficit disorder...i find myself bouncing around between paper crafting, knitting, photography, sewing, embroidery, cooking....
the list goes on and on and on!
And in between there is this thing called "life". Not to worry...nothing too bad, but just alittle chaotic right now. I just think i need to sit myself down and take a little time to be quiet...
But my dear mentor, Kim Klassen, has helped me to focus when she released her new paper and cloth collection last week. Oh my...this collection is just chock full of wonderful textures and brush sets for photoshop. The textures are so dreamy, but her new brush sets are just divine!!! Once loaded, all you need to do is "stamp and go". You can change the size and position and even the colour! The possibilities are really endless!
In this week's lesson, Kim gave us this iconic photo to "play with". I uploaded it into Lightroom to straighten, crop, adjust the white balance and saturation. I really do love colour, but sometimes it is just alittle much for me. Lightroom gives me all kinds of options to get the colours just right...for me!
Then i bopped over to PSE and added one of Kim's new brushes that gave it a soft vintage feel...and then of coarse...a little text!
Here is the before...
If you are intrigued to learn more about Lightroom and photoshop...be sure to connect with Kim Klassen. If she can teach me...a real beginner...i just know she can teach anyone!
Until next time...

ReplyDeleteI agree - the processing and quote are a perfect match.
ReplyDeleteI love these two chairs and how you've processed them. I must have the same Creative ADD. I've been all over the map but having fun learning new techniques too. :)
ReplyDeletePerfect! Just love what you've done with this. The chairs do indeed look ready for quiet contemplation.
