a Digital e-card inspired by the HA sneak peek #5

Hi, there!
This week, the Hero Arts' new products for Autumn - Winter were revealed! It's sneak peek time! And their challenge is to be inspired by the products will soon be released. But I had a lot of things to do in this weekday, and the deadline is Sunday midnight PST.
So tonight, I made a digital e-card inspired by the sneak peek #5 - red and green, soft pink, blue and orange colors and dots.
I decided to use Sunshine Daisy and Friendship Definition of the Hero Arts brandnew DigiKits. These are freebies. I LOVE this Sunshine Daisy! So many lovely kits are sold at the 2Peas! Just take a look!

This is the results, 'You're one of my nicest thoughts'.
The methods or effects I used are brushes, blends (blendmode:Colorblend, Difference, Multiply, Vividlight, Exclusion etc.), dropped shadows, and gradation overlay.
The outlines of daisies are created to use its brush - by changing the selected areas.

supplies:
HA Sunshine Daisy DigiKit
HA Friendship Definition DigiKit
Prima hybrid digital papers (2 patterned papers)
Tia Bennett DigiKit (stitch)

tool: Adobe Photoshop CS4

*The way of expression for this work can be create to use PS7, CS1, 2 and 3, I think, I use CS4 though.

Thanks for looking! :)

  4. Tomo先輩、Noriです。暑中お見舞い申し上げます。
    おいしい仕事を断って、デジキットで遊んでいるんですかぁ? オリジナルにこだわる先輩なのに、面白いのかな???
    自分で素材作って販売しては?(笑)
    9月に帰省しますが、その頃先輩はTVのfilm edit?

  5. Hi, Suzz! Thanks so much for your lovely comment!

    Hi, Dawn!,
    Thank you so very much!
    In the case the stuff is old, I think you can make the one like this, if your software can work layers and the effect of transparency.
    The new version is convenient, but there're so many functions I don't use. And it uses so many memories... :(

    Hi, Vanessa!,
    Thanks so much! You come to want to try digital? I think the digital use will spread your way of expressions. :)

    I appreciate all of your comments!
    Hugs, Tomo

  6. Hi, Nori-chan! こんばんは。台風は大丈夫?
    > おいしい仕事
    あれ、噂になっているのかしら?
    遊ぶ為ではなくって、病気の後、熱波・水害・冷夏、今度は台風でしょ? 少々疲れ気味なので、次の仕事に備えて充電期間としただけヨ(笑 もともと夏休みのはずだったのに、至急案件多しでね) TVは10月からの予定です。
    近々連絡を入れますね。
    コメント、ありがとう♪
