News and More

 

Hello everyone!

I am letting you all know that I will be updating my blogs as time permits.

A lot of the tutorials on this blog have missing supplies. So, until I update, please find

suitable replacements. I will keep the ones with missing supplies online for those 

of you who do have the supplies.

We all have to remember that designers do quit, retire, and the links to their supplies expire. 

4-Shared is one of the main sites that expire files. Most of the time, this is without notice.

So, give me some time and let me get working on this blog and on my graphics blog.

By the way, if there is a type of graphic or tutorial you would like to see, comment below or send

me an email at nedya 4 @ gmail.com

Have a great week!

Copy and paste the white moon and move it to the upper right part of your tag.

I added the sparkles, moved it near the top, duplicated and flipped, and moved the

Copy towards the bottom of my tag.

and moved them around to make it look like they were covering the ground.

You can also find some free CU leaves on the internet.

There are also some leaves in my Happy Halloween Kit HERE,

if you want to use them. Resize them to fit your tag and to your satisfaction.

This way you can always save it and change whatever you want to

in the future.

 

Add your watermark if you wish, and make

sure you add the copyright for the image you used.

 

I saved mine as a PNG image.

You are done!

New Tutorial in the making and other tidbits

 

A couple of years ago, I bought PSP 2021.

Well, I installed it on my old laptop, and my laptop went out last year.

Then I went back to using my older laptop with PSP 9, and it finally went out.

So, I almost gave up. 

Back at the end of June, I  had an incident and ended up with a TBI.

I have been bored for a few weeks now and decided to PSP again.

A few days ago, I decided to try to install PSP 2021 on this one. So, I did.

I now have PSP 2021 on this computer and have started to PSP again.

I don't have a lot of plug-ins because a few are not compatible with this 

program. However, I will do the best I can with what I have.

There are new masks on my graphics blog, and I have a fall tutorial 

almost done. I will put it up as soon as possible. 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

 

I want to wish everyone a very Happy and Safe Thanksgiving!
