Aloha Friday #111 - Safari Animals

Good morning! Aloha Friday is in full swing over at Kitty Bee Designs! Our current challenge is #111: Food or Drink, and this is week #2. Our challenge this week is sponsored by The Paper Shelter.


I love this adorable new image! This is one of the newer releases from Kitty Bee Designs, Emilee #2. After she was colored (Copics), I used a plain cirlce to die cut the image and mat, and added some funky patterned papers (Doodlebug) with border (punch), embellies (glitter dots, making memories) and dimension.

I have to apologize for my bad photo. I just yesterday got the newest version of Photoshop Elements and Premier Elements (by the way, it's on sale through the Adobe Website HERE until February 18th if you're looking to upgrade). I was using an embarrassingly old version of Photoshop Elements, and while it didn't always want to work right with my computer, it got the job done enough to straighten, crop, and watermark my photos. I was able to get this one cropped and watermarked with the new version, but that's about it. (Because silly me uninstalled PSE4 before installing 2018 because I didn't want to worry about conflicts or any junk with the new program. Except it's all brand new and I don't know how to use it all yet! Derp...) It looks like a great and powerful program, and I'm excited about it, but the toolbars and such are all in different places. I need to run some tutorials so I can learn all the new secrets! In the meantime, behold my crooked, un-vignetted, barely presentable photo. At least Emilee is carrying me by being so incredibly adorable!

Thanks for stopping by, be sure to link up your school creations over at Aloha Friday, and I hope you have an AWESOME day!
