When I can’t find fresh inspiration I sometimes go back and have look through my photo library to see what I could have a bit of fun with. I love using my Paintshop Pro to get creative and try out different effects.
Tulips have a lovely sculptural quality to them and I experimented with ‘Gradients’ using the Flood Fill tool on the image background. I’m quite pleased with the results.
I thought the Rose needed something a bit softer …..
bye for now Eileen
Hi Eileen: That tulip is striking with the spiral background!!! I love it!!!
The softening effext you did on the rose is gorgeous….you could make greeting cards using that photo!!!
You are so talented!!! I think I should sign up for classes!!
Has Spring finally sprung there?? It is coming little by little here…..slowly….lol…
Yours from the chilly side, Sherri-Ellen xo

sorry for delayed response Sherri-Ellen – been having a bit of admin trouble updating my details … everything seems ok now. Thanks for your card suggestion. I must admit I did try once or twice printing my own, not very successfully so I abandonned ship. I probably haven’t got the best software. I suppose I could try having them done for me but not sure if too pricey. xx

Hi Eileen…no problem about not getting back to me til now. I am glad you are all right & have worked out the admin details!!
So you have tried card making?? I wish it had worked out because your pix are brilliant!!!
I wonder if it would pricey to have them made too…
I hope you have a good weekend & maybe get out to take some more photos.
