I thought for a couple of minutes about making my "shape" in the form of a butterfly, but quickly changed to a heart so I'd have the page completed today - "butterfly" was taking way too long to get it to look right!
So much fun searching my stash for hearts when I decided on a heart shape. Because this is Winnie the Pooh day, used an image of Pooh and one of his quotes.
Susan, I would go back into PS and click on the History. Flattening the file was a “step,” so you may be able to step back to the stage the file was in before you flattened it. Just click on the last thing you did (in the list) before the flattening, and the file should revert to the previous state. I had the same thing happen to me when I first started using PS, and I was able to get the layered file back. If you’ve shut down PS since then, it might not work. Doesn’t hurt to try... BTW-Great layout!
I had already hit save and closed the file. Normally what I do is I save the PSD file. Then I flatten the image, resize to 800x800 72dpi jpg. Then when I close it, I DON"T save it, so it keeps the original layers. Apparently I hit save after flatten. UGH Oh well. What's done is done.
Took a two hour lunch to finish this one today!! Thanks for the challenge...pretty sure I have never used this many elements on a page!!
This was such a FUN challenge! I had the Mickey idea as soon as I read the challenge, but thanks for @lmccandless for her inspiring example! I totally lifted her page
