Friday Features; January 20 Edition

This is going to be a long post, so buckle up!

First up, I have a new product in my store, "Twelve x 12 Album."  It's a set of 12 double-spread, 24x12", templates, one for each month.  Each page is unique, but each double-spread has 12 photo clipping masks, with a monthly title or text box and a journaling box, too.  I've also included single page, 12x12", layouts if you find those easier to work with.  I think it's a fun product, and I'm going to be using it myself to document my "twelve in 12."



Over at the goDigitalScrapbooking forum, I started a thread asking for input about template design. If you'd like to chime in, here's the link.
I've decided that instead of bouncing all around the color wheel for my template palette, I'm going to choose a single color scheme.  I'm trying to go for a scheme that won't bore me by its repeated use, is colorful, yet neutral enough that it doesn't prevent my customers from seeing their layouts in the design.  Here are the swatches that have appealed to me the most, but I'd love your input, too.  If there's one that especially appeals to you, please leave a comment either in the forum or in the comments for this post.  Thanks!





  

  

  

  

  

All those pretty, pretty colors....  How will I ever decide and be happy?  So, I hope you can see where a little input from you might be helpful... 

Today's tutorial is a quick little tip for free transforming an item in PSE.

And, finally, here's your Friday Features:




Prayer is a sincere, sensible, affectionate pouring out of the soul to God, through Christ in the strength and assistance of the Spirit, for such things as God has promised.

  1. Thank you for the quick tip - just today I was thinking about skewing something - I'll have to try this method!

  2. I like the bottom palette the best. The colors are both serene and energetic at the same time. That's my vote.
