Hiya,

With the wedding stressing me out so much (don't even ASK about the call I got this afternoon from the dress shop :headache: :scared: ) I've been hanging about on photography/scrapping boards and blogs to escape from it all. I found a link on the DIS photography board that I checked out - it's awesome. Really great tutorials on some neat effects. Mainly she shows how to take photos that turned out kinda dull/grey/flat and make them really cool for pages and stuff. I think she uses a full version of Photoshop but all her tutorials translated pretty perfectly for me using Paint Shop Pro 8.

The address is:

Anyway I thought I'd show you some of the stuff I've done using her blog ideas.

I've also done two digital layouts this week, we've had people saying they want to look at the house (they didn't turn up in the end) so I haven't been able to get out my paper scrap stuff much lately.

Me during my hair trial, a rare page as I never scrap myself!

very cute layouts Queenie! And I love the pics. I can do something similar with Aperture (the Mac photo storage software) but I don't usually mess with it much.
