Overlays

I am honored to be featured as the artist of the month on Stacie Spencer's blog. Check her out here. She makes the most wonderful jewelry and if you are a photography lover, she has an awesome camera charm.
I have 5 digital papers for you this week. It's National Scrapbooking Day this Saturday, so why not celebrate with a freebie! The link is below.
I made them with some new overlays that will be in my shop soon at E-scapeandscrap. Speaking of the shop.... Everything in my store is on sale at 50% off through My 6th.
Each paper was created by using several papers from Kaytie's Day and Kaytie's Day Mini kit 'clipped' to different overlays. (see my example in Photoshop layers panel) Like most things in Photoshop there's more than one way to skin a cat, ouch.
1. Hover your mouse between the 2 layers with the option/alt key held down, when the 2-colored circle (or square in CS6) with a down-facing arrow shows up, click.
2. Select the top layer,  Go to Layer> Create Clipping Mask
3. Shift/Command/G or that would be Shift/Control/G on a PC.

Here are 2 layouts using the papers.
If you could see behind the scenes..... I have my iPhone on a tripod I found at Photojojo (this store is fabulous!) with the timer set to 5 seconds using the Camera+ App. I practiced in the hotel room before I went down to the beach to make a fool of myself.


Supplies:
More Paper Frames
Butterfly and staples from Kaytie's Day
Stitches (recolored) from Stitches Messy


A preview of a few of the overlays that will be in my new Overlay set.

  3. Your stuff is always so cool...I would love to learn how to make my own (more to be able to not have to buy professional licenses). WONDERFUL!
