Hi! Thanks for visiting my blog during The August Break — I loved reading your feedback and appreciate the time you took out of your day to check out my photos.
Besides taking random photos around town, I spent most of August munching on sweets, watching Glee reruns (totally jumped the shark last night — what a shame), exploring Photoshop, playing with Taco, cuddling with Chico, pondering over the logistics of a service I’m adding to the blog (more details to come), and reading Susannah Conway’s blog from her very first post to the present. That woman RULZ.
Anyhoo, I’ve received a couple of emails asking how I created the Dot Your Dots freebies and so I want to kick-start September with a few tutorials. I’m going to begin with a dotted lines how-to. The 2nd tutorial shows how to create dotted circles and the last video shows how to create any dotted shape (I used text in the 3rd example — go mantras).
Check these out when you can. If any of the steps are confusing, please let me know and I’d be happy to clarify. :)
