Designing?

[TiffanyJewel]

how do you girls do it? I am so fascinated with everything digital that I just want to learn , and learn and well ... learn. Lately I just CAN'T get enough! ;) To make kits do you just use Photo shop or do you have to buy another program? I just want to play ! nothing serious! any pointers?

Hi Tiffany! You are so pretty- love your avatar! About designing- the guild will have classes ! I am no expert - but I would say just learn your program well and learn all you can. I use PSCS2, have PSPX (which I really do not use) and filters. Keep learning and experimenting! Have fun and read every tutorial you can find. I am sure the other designers may have more tips than I do! :D

i agree, search out all the tutorials you can....i did this and repeated the tutorials several times, so functions would become ingrained...then when you start thinking about creating items, you will say, "hey, i learned xyz in that tutorial, i wonder if i could apply xyz to that i want to create."

and play and experiment...it takes time....when i look back at what i first designed....whoa! it hurt my eyes! LOL

i al really comforatable with PSCS...it's my baby ;)
