🧡 Easy Peasy with the Pen Tool – FREE Video Tutorial

February 25, 2025 | Digital Scrapper News | Volume 23, Issue 08

Hi there!

The Pen Tool in Adobe Photoshop is described as—a selection tool that lets you create paths and shapes with anchor points and handles.

It’s most commonly used to trace outlines, make selections, and cut out objects. And it’s also one of the most commonly avoided tools in Photoshop. It’s kinda scary!

But did you know that you can create something like this with Pen Tool without ever even touching a path, anchor point, or handle? 

On the blog this week, you’ll find a new FREE tutorial by Gina Harper that’s going to be a treat just for the Photoshop subscribers in our midst. You’ll get the details below.

Love and creative success,

Jen White, Owner of Digital Scrapper
