This page may take a while to load, as it is a compilation of all that I did during the month.

 

 

Did the beginner's tutorial for creating a selection. I actually had a hard time with this one. I couldn't make the first step work at all. I finally closed my work, cause I was just so frustrated. As PSP closed I realized what was wrong: I was using SHAPES, not SELECTIONS. *doh* The tutorial went pretty smooth after that. LOL

Then I did the intermediate tutorial. This just took a long time, didn't have a single problem with it. I will say that I used the preset "wood grain" textures that come with PSP for the hair. LOL.

Beginner
Simple Egg Tutorial

By Fantasy Inspirations


http://www.fantasyinspirations.8m.com/egg-tut.html

 

I only had one problem with this tutorial....I couldn't download the egg shape. So, after going through a second tutorial that showed me how to make my own egg "shape" shape, I finally had it. I put it on a generic background, hoping that it looked like it was against some fancy wallpaper or something. LOL

Had a small memory problem with this one, so I went with 800x600 and shrank it to half to post here. It turned out kind of nice. Thanks to my friend Sal for the picture....and for the drool when I was finished. LOL

Beautiful Butterfly

My first completion of an advanced tutorial. I couldn't get the "stained glass" to work in Blade Pro, so I kind of made my own from the pieces she sent along in the zip file. It turned out sparkly, and I liked it. Other than that, I didn't have any trouble. I'm so proud. :) Someone remind me to learn how to save stuff as transparent, though! ROFL

Week of Sept. 15 - 21

 

Intermediate Tutorial

When I saw what it was, I just had to know how to do it. Now that I do, I'll bet I do a lot of "watery" things. But I'm like that. And look, I did it as a transparent gif, too. Could have been worse. Took me a while to figure out how to "cut off" the bottom. "What? Do it again? OH!"

Here's the beginner tutorial, Lace My Way. I had trouble turning the lace from black to white, but just flood filled. I also didn't (and don't) have the heart shape, so I went and got one that was a heart, but not exactly right. So, pardon the shape on this. It's "nouveau" shaped.

Beginner Tutorial
Plaques

By Wompie Tutorials

 

Was pretty simple, really. The hard part was choosing the marble colors. ;) I think it's all a bit MUCH, but I can modify it for other things, I think. Bit HUGE for my taste.

Jewelry Box

Another thing with selections, kind of bizarre. I did the box top, but not the bottom. Resized, so excuse the quality.
