I am so happy to announce the debut of our OpenScrapbook Digital Products Shop with our first release of Photo Veils – The Simplicity Collection! They are so simple to use and they can transform your photos quickly into works of art! Photo Veils work much like textures, you apply them to your photos and use blending modes to achieve your desired effects. They are compatible with most photo editing programs, including Photoshop and Photoshop Elements!
The Simplicity Collection is priced at $35 and includes 30 original Photo Veils. Members of OpenScrapbook receive a 50% discount on all digital products in our shop! Membership is only $15 a month and includes access to photography and digital scrapbooking tutorials, exclusive brushes, actions and textures, color palettes, special deals and more!
I’ve whipped up a few before and afters for you to see what Photo Veils can do! Each of these edits took me less than a minute to complete! That’s how quick and simple these are! They work the best in the Soft Light blending mode, which is what I’ve used in most of these samples. Experiment and try different blending modes to create a custom look!
Well, this is my last post of this year! It’s a little hard to believe that tomorrow is 2010! I am very excited for the new year though. I’ll be starting my Project 365 tomorrow and working on my 2010 Goals.
I’ve been inspired by many blogging friends to post my best photos of 2009. It was fun looking back through the year and seeing how my photogrpahy has changed, the stages my post-processing has gone through! I’m pretty confident I can say that my post-processing skills have improved! I had to laugh at some of the things I did then. I’m sure in a year I’ll be giggling at what I’m doing now! It’s all part of the learning process and I hope I never stop learning!
Here are my Best Photos of 2009, and some blog posts in case you missed them, starting at the beginning of the year. I have to warn you, there’s a lot! It was hard narrowing it down!
December – Thanks to my sister and her wedding, I get to photograph flowers in the winter!
And that completes 2009! I am so excited to see what 2010 brings! What are some of your favorite photos of 2009? Leave me a link to your blog or Flickr, I’d love to come over and check them out!
Brrrr! It is too cold! We’ve been in the teens this week with lows below 0! The snow has turned to ice and is not very pretty anymore. I wish it would just go away! I decided today to browse through my spring photos and find some nice flowers. Maybe that will warm me up a bit! I am so ready for spring already!
(Again… All three photos are processed with “Simplicity.” A super exciting, huge release… Coming soon to OpenScrapbook! I am so excited about this! I can’t wait to share it with all of you! But, I have to finish the project first. It will definitely be worth the wait!)
Last night I had the opportunity to take some fun pictures! We went to the zoo yesterday afternoon and after we were done, I walked over to the rose garden in the park by the zoo. The roses are just starting to bloom there and they were so pretty! I shot these around 7 to 8 pm and the light was just perfect. I love how it glows through the petals and bounces off the greenery. Perfect! This might be one of my new favorite places to take pictures!
What are some of your favorites places to shoot? Share some of your favorite shots, I’d love to see them!
