August 2015 ATC: "Dove Chocolate Sayings"
I realized last night that today was the last day of August and since Lei's husband had graciously eaten a piece of chocolate for me, I didn't want his effort to go to waste. My saying was "Hold hands firmly, hearts gently" -- as Lei said, interesting since I still have my two injured fingers wrapped together. I had lots of thoughts about what to do with the saying, but kept coming back to how my sister and I always talked about how comforting our Mom's hands were - she used to laugh at us, but we both separately talked about how they felt. And since my Mom also loved hearts, I went looking for a photo of her hands and applied a PSE pencil filter to them and used a heart mask on the background.
I'm still not comfortable in the new PSE program and don't have brushes and extras installed and things kept disappearing. (including the "undo" panel -- thank goodness for command-Z). I'm not entirely happy with this ATC, but at least I got one done. (PS and now that it's posted, it's a lot darker and grayer than in PSE, don't know what that's about.)
For this ATC I used:
SNU Watercolor Masks - Heart
EBA SS Paper ATC Edgers
EBA ATC Backgrounds
and my own photo
