Monika13 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I saw this in one of the layouts and was curious how can this be done.It looks like erasing but it's definitely not the eraser tool in PSE11. There are 2 papers on top of each other and then it looks like earasing with with a sponge, just like erasing chalk from a blackboard, leaving some behind. I'm attaching a sample for reference. Beige paper is on top and being erased, revelaing flower paper underneath it. TIA for any advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DixieLee Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I wonder if there was a blending-some of the masks now could probably make that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiza126 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 It might have been a layer mask - and they played with the opacity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nica Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I agree with Dixie. It looks like a blending mask. You might try: ScrapSimple Paper Templates: Background Blender s 4 ScrapSimple Paper Templates: Background Blender s ScrapSimple Paper Templates: Chic Blender Layout Masks It also may have been done by hand using a brush. Such as: Brush Set: Chic Blender s Dynamic Brush Set: Background Blender s Brush Set: Rough It Up There are a whole bunch more if you search for "blenders."

Rose Ann Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I think it could be either the eraser or a layer mask. You can use any brush you want when you are erasing, so that person might have chosen a spongy brush to use as an eraser. You could do the same with a layer mask and use any brush to hide and reveal the papers. The joy of PSE is that there are usually several ways to accomplish what you want to do. HTH. Please post and let us see the layout you come up with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monika13 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 I ended up using eraser tool and playing with brush type and size and opacity. I did't go too crazy with erasing though. My layout is posted hereMy Layout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
