Barb Eugene Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 What's the best way to color the gray templates/embellishments, particularly if I want it to be a light color, such as yellow? By using the Colorize function, the end result still has a gray cast to it. Thanks for any ideas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraC1977 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 We had a great tutorial by one of our designers in the newsletter a while back, featuring Yellow colorization of ribbon/bow embellishments; I haven't been able to find it yet. What I do remember is after you click colorize, adjust the blending mode for the color layer. The Lighten group: Lighten, Screen, Color Dodge, Linear Dodge and Lighter Color were the best blending modes for color like Yellow. Push the Saturation and Lightness sliders up, too. Hope this helps!

April Showers Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Just noticed you asked about Paint Shop Pro... I think you should be able translate some of the techniques. We used to have more PSP users here, but many of them moved to PSE & PS to take advantage of the Styles and Actions available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April Showers Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Waving "Hi!" back April! When I read your first post I thought "gee I haven't seen April in a while!". So now I know why. Come back soon! I've been home, just not on the forums as much because I had those pesky stitches in my hand. It is way easier to type with them out! I really meant that I am just a few hours up I-5 from Barb who is in Eugene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
