Beach Time Word Art

Hello! 

For those that don't know, I love word art!  So earlier, I was trying to make some word art in a couple of the different AI programs ... some weren't all that great however some came out pretty decently.  It's a work-in-progress, so hoping I can eventually figure out the "perfect" prompt words to get better results.  Some I had to tweak in PSP.  For example, some of the "Sand and Surf" would add an "i" in "Surf", so went in and deleted the "i", centered the word and moved it around to look better, then saved.  So little tweaks like that.  Extra letters or words with an added letter ..... nothing major, nothing I couldn't easily fix.  Some had a bunch of empty "dead space" around them so I cropped them down, so some will be different sizes.

I tried to keep with the whole summer/beach/ocean/sea fun time theme so .... sharing the better ones here for anyone who would like them. I'll probably have some more later as I fix/tweak some of the others.  There's actually quite a lot - this is just a partial amount.

If you use them in anything, I'd love to see!!

Please, if you'd like to share these, send people to the blog to download - please don't share these in groups or load them up to file share sites.  They're FTU, so ... just a little courtesy?  Thanks.

Happy creating!!

Just click on them to open them full-sized, then right click/save as.  The previews are much smaller than the actual images.  You can remove the credit info when using - it's just there for ID in case someone wants to check out the blog.

Some New Grunge Masks

 Been playing around in PSP, making some masks ... sharing some here now.  Remember, in PSP, if you want to switch the black and white on the mask you can do one of two things:

1.  Go to Adjust  > Color Balance > Negative Image -- this will switch the white and black
2.  In your layers palette, on the layer you want to use the mask on, just right click, go to New Mask Layer  > From Image ... when the window comes up, use the drop down to choose the mask file (make sure its minimized in PSP first) and then at the bottom, select "invert mask data" and it will switch the black and white on the mask.

Here are the masks - just click on it to make it larger, then just right click/save as. 

 They should all be in jpg format.  Enjoy!!

Some New Masks

 Well, I know it's been a long time since I've posted.  Right now the household is dealing with food poisoning, so to get my mind off of things I decided to get a little creative in PSP and try my hand at making some masks.  I had made some in the past, which I will share on this blog at some point, however I managed to find a bunch of new-to-me brushes so figured, what the heck.  I hope you like them and if you use them, I'd love to see!!

Just click on the image and it should open it up, just do the whole right click/save as and you should be good to go!!

Enjoy!
