Thanks Jen, this is great!
Great tutorial, Jen.
Thanks Jen for sharing your knowledge and the fun moments of your life.
Great tutorial, Jen! I’ve always avoided using paperclips because I wasn’t sure how to make them look realistic! Time to use paperclips! 🙂
Thanks, Jen. I agree you need to scrape these moments – they remind us to stop and smell the roses once in a while. Did you take your photos thru the window? The tutorial was great – now I need to get busy scrapping!
Yes! Most of my bird photos are through a window. But I have a zoom lens on my camera, so you cannot really tell. 😀
Jen, I learn so much watching your videos! Thank you so much. Your voice is very soothing as well.
Thanks Jen. I did know how to do this and now I know how again lol!
I also got another great tip from this tutorial when you talked about the PS Legacy Brushes. I am relatively new to using PS and wondered where they went. So Thank YOU again:)
Thanks Jen. Wonderful tutorial! And great photos!
Thanks Jen! fun tutorial!
Thank you, I’ve always wondered how to get the overlay shadow out. Thank you so much.
Another one of those “simple” tricks that I always respond to with, “almost everything is simple WHEN YOU KNOW HOW TO DO IT!” Now we know! Great lesson, Jen.
