As a digital scrapbooker, I know you strive make unique and beautiful scrapbook pages. To do that, you need creative inspiration, guidance, and a good handle on how to use your software. The problem is you don’t always know what’s available to you or how to use it, which can be frustrating. The good news is, all digital scrapbookers have the ability to learn the creative secrets that make Photoshop magical . . . even though they might seem too hard to learn. That’s why I’ve developed a series of steps to take the guesswork out of a seemingly-complicated design. Here’s how it works:

• In Lesson 1, we’ll create a painted portrait with the help of adjustments and the Magic Wand tool.
• Then in Lesson 2, practice a similar technique by turning a low-quality vintage photo into a photo collage element.
• Next in Lesson 3, we’ll use the collaged photo document from the previous lesson and transform it into a beautiful brushed watercolor mask.
• Then in Lesson 4, we’ll get additional practice with the technique by turning a real leaf embellishment into a mixed-media masterpiece.
• Next in Lesson 5, we’ll solidify the artsy concepts taught by walking through how to create a super fun and versatile layered collage-style sunflower element using a photo.
• And then finally in Lesson 6, I’ll set you free by helping you choose appropriate photos for the techniques we’ve used, plus I’ll give you additional ideas to help you soar.

So enroll in Artful Photos, so you can stop fumbling about in Photoshop and start creating artist designs with skill and confidence.
