i’m a fish out of water. a vegetarian at a brazilian steak house. a cowboys fan in redskins nation. i think you get the idea.
i’m ok in adobe illustrator and i’m pretty good in adobe indesign, but photoshop, i’m a lost cause. i have no idea where or even HOW to start.
i know there is so much photoshop offers and i want to take advantage of it. the main thing i want to learn is clipping masks and collages. i want to start designing collages so i can share wedding inspiration boards, color palettes, home decor and just general collections of things i love. instead of one photo at a time and making the post forever long, i want to condense it into a collage.
so dear readers, much like i challenged myself to blog 3 times a week in august, i’ve also challenged myself to learn photoshop…you know in all that spare time i have.
have any photoshop tips? know of any great tutorials? have a better idea on how to make a collage? please share. i need help!






















Pioneer Woman has some photoshop tutorials on her site. I know she covers layer masks and she has 2 sets of free actions.
I’m not sure what’s out there in terms of collages. I would suggest just playing around. Basically put every item on its own layer so you can move and adjust them independently.
I am a photoshop pro! And have no experience in illustrator or indesign. Let’s seriously schedule a date to chat and exchange tips :)
you can make collages super easily in picasa…it is a life saver for client meetings!
