Bear-Paws-Gold_small.jpgI have been playing with my Photoshop today and created this pic. The bears are of circus bears that I had made. I had a blast!   :dance:

The mind races . . . In the tush-tag thread, Wendy mentioned the possibility of designing her own fabrics.

I'm seeing your circus bears on a custom-made tote bag! bear_shocked

Melissa, Cards.... What a great idea  bear_thumb

Renae, I have the photoshop 6.0 too. I is a copy from a friend, so what I do with it is basically just by trial and error. There are many free photoshop tutorials online which has helped me a bunch with learning how to work with it.

Eileen, "custom made tote bags" yes.... I can see it too  bear_happy 

Thanks for having a peek at my pic ya'll.  bear_flower   bear_flower

That is awesome Roxanne!   I have photoshop elements 3.  Have had it for a year.  Purchased a book or two to learn how to....do anything with it.  Then went on to other things that did not make my brain work so hard.  I really want to learn how to use it and am ready to give it another try.  I am not very patient and that is part of my problem.  The other is lack of time to allow myself to be patient.   Anyhow.....great job! :clap:  :dance:

Hugs,

Nice job. I just got photoshop but haven't done too much with it. I find it frustrating, it is definately not an intuitive program to use. I find I use a lot of four letter words when I use it... and I hate layers, for some reason I cannot figure that whole thing out.
You did though and the result is beautiful. I love it.
