Textures

Today I decided to try my hand at usung textures in Photoshop Elements 7. Nichole's mother-in-law is an awesome photographer. Recently, Connie took some beautiful photos of sunflowers. She was not happy with the color of the sky since it was an overcast day. Since I had read about textures in the PSE User magazine I decided her photo was the perfect chance to practice some texture techniques. Below is the result.

I've also attached a family photo from the reunion in Austin. This is my entire side of the family minus my brother and nephew, Joe. How about those shirts?

Family Reunion and PSE7

Today's post is about using Photoshop Elements 7 and a picture from the recent Puzio family reunion.

Last week the majority of the Puzio family descended upon Lake LBJ just outside of Austin, Texas. My sister, Shelley owns a lovely lake home right on the lake and we rented a home about 4 doors down for the week. There were 22 of us split between two homes. We had a great time. Fortunately we had the opportunity to take some family photos. As some of you know I worked incredibly hard to tie dye 24 t-shirts just for the photo shoot. The shirts all turned out great and everyone really enjoyed wearing them. The photo attached is of me and my 4 children at the lake wearing our shirts.

The reason the title of this post includes PSE7 is because the frame and word art was added using PSE7. I'm taking a free photo editing class from JessicaSprague.com. She has lots of great video tutorials on using this wonderful photo editing tool. Feel free to check it out. You'll also be seeing more of my family reunion photos enhanced with PSE7 as I learn more skills.
