Jessica Sprague class

Hi all! No cards to share today... i am getting ready for my big yard sale this weekend and I can't wait to get that over with!! I signed up for Jessica Sprague's free class this week 'Photo editing: frame ups and special effects" and I tell you what I have been having a blast!! I bought myself photoshop 7 a month or so ago and I had no idea how to use it. I had bought all these really cool brushes and things from house of 3 (I love house of 3!!) and 2 peas and didn't have a clue on how to use them. So I was blog hopping last week and I saw the link for Jessica's class on (I think it was) Rhonna's blog, and I signed up right then and there. I have been playing with my photo's left and right!! I can't believe how easy it is!! This is what I did today.....

originalThis is one of my granddaughters when she was a baby...

and this is after I played....

I know the sweet cakes part is a little big right next to her head but give me a break ..I am a beginner and I am just playing!! I have heard of some people not being able to use the hof3 brushes with photoshop 7 but so far I have not had trouble... I save them to a folder on my desktop and they seem to work fine. The heart brush is from the sampler pack that came with the class and the font and floral swirl I got at 2peas.. it's from Rhonna... I love her stuff.. I just matched the colors from the baby's dress. I know I still have a lot to learn but boy am I having fun!!! Thanks Jessica and house of 3....
