Look what I did! (Thanks Alishaw!)

[chryslergreen]

One of the coolest things I learned in the recent picture perfect class (taught by the amazing Alisha) is how to do a spot of color on a b&w photo. I used some photos from the last fourth of July and made this layout. I just love this effect! Thanks Alisha!

[peverill]

I Love the page! I especially like the flag picture! I am so bad at remembering online things! I need to work on that!

[peetie]

Wow! Awesome page. Where was the picture taken that you are standing under the LOVE letters? That is so cool!

[dovegirl]

Great page! I love how the colors pop against the black and white.

[Alyson]

Looks awesome!! I love all the pictures; you did an excellent job on this technique!

[chryslergreen]

Wow! Awesome page. Where was the picture taken that you are standing under the LOVE letters? That is so cool!

It's in downtown Philadelphia, there's a tiny little courtyard called Love Park with that statue and a fountain behind it.

[scrapy]

Wow, that is cool. Good job on the layout.

[digimad]

[April]

Gorgeous!!! That is one GREAT page!

[JoDee:)]

Great page!!! I love the touch of color. This was my favorite parts of the class too!!!

[crystalclark87]

Yay! I love it too! That was my favorite part too because I love doing that but the old way is sooo time consuming! I love this new technique!

[jessie97]

Great Job. I love it.

[tpowers]

Is it easy to explain? I had to miss the class because I had a ton of family in town.

[supermombritt]

I love that layout. I would love it if someone would post how to do that because I too missed the class.

[Jenny McDonald]

Me too! Please.

[chryslergreen]

I explained it on my scrapbooking blog... I'm not the best at explaining things so I hope it makes sense. You can check it out here (http://scrapping-is-life.blogspot.com/2008/04/color-spotting-technique.html)and let me know if you have questions...

[crystalclark87]

Lynnette, your instructions were great and easy to follow for people that have never done it (I would think so anyway..) The only thing I would edit is that the adjustment layers are on the bottom of the layer palette in the full version. Other than that it was great! Good job!

[Angie I]

love that page! your giving me some inspiration--now if only I would have taken that picture perfect class so that I would know how you did that.

[dovegirl]

I didn't attend the class, but I saw this on Scrapbook Memories (this is the one we were talking about Crystal). There are directions and a video you can watch if you register.

[crystalclark87]

Lynette also wrote the instructions on her blog and they are really easy to follow.

[Jenny McDonald]

Thanks so much for your tuts. I've bookmarked them both! I love this forum everyone ROCKS!

[dovegirl]

Lynette's instructions were awesome! I knew that just from reading them that I had seen that before. I was just thinking some people are more visual - maybe the video would help.

[Alishaw]

Lynette, Lynette, Lynette!! DARLING!! I love the colors, the layout, EVERYTHING! I'm so glad you were able to do it and explain it too! YEAH!

[Jill]

Thanks Lynette! That was a perfect tut! Much easier then my old way for sure.

[chryslergreen]

Lynnette, your instructions were great and easy to follow for people that have never done it (I would think so anyway..) The only thing I would edit is that the adjustment layers are on the bottom of the layer palette in the full version. Other than that it was great! Good job!

Thanks for the tip Crystal. I've only ever used Elements so I have no clue how things differ with the full version on Photoshop!

[rizkid22]

Great job Lynette!! They look so good. And I like how you just picked 1-2 colors to bring out. Looks so good!!!!

[crystalclark87]

No problem! I just didn't want anyone to get confused if they had the full version and couldn't find it! I never knew what they were used for until I took Alisha's class! It was great; I can't wait for the next one!
