January 4th - Stylin' Titles (Technique Challenge)

Jan 4 Stylin' Titles (Technique Challenge)
Transparent Acrylic action on title

 

Thank you! I did this for pse8 and it worked! dl some style and now off to play.......

I have a new tower coming and the pse15 in its box is sitting on my desk at the moment.

 

I lost track of the styles!! I used some glossy flair styles. Rasterized, these some of the chocolate candy styles. At one point I duplicated the layer and embossed the top layer. The bottom rasterized layer had a shadow added to it.

 

So this is why it's called a Month Of Challenges? Because of the way-out-of-my-comfort-zone kind of challenge you bring? Oh boy.

 

Thanks for sharing these great techniques. I started out with the Brilliant Font and duplicated the layer. The top layer uses an epoxy style by Mommyish; the bottom layer has a stroke.

 

used wood veneer

 

Thanks for sharing. I was thinking the same thing - filling with paper is easy. I will try looking at the different filters as well!!

 

I used Garden party alpha from Pink Reptile Designs. Then I clipped a paper and I added an inner light

 

That was fun! Thanks for the challenge! Honestly, I didn't even know I could make this work as well as it did. Learn something new everyday! This is what I did -
Favorite Christmas Tradition - for this title I used this --->Always Here font. I looked through my default styles in CA2 trying them on, which i've done before, but never really liked - I used the Red Plastic style but it filled in the holes of the alpha and made it look illegible. so I tried to counter act that. so I looked at the paper edges and feather edges, and tried them all until I got to the Soft Thin Edge Style, which worked.
I typed Christmas 2010 and it just came out outlined, so I was like, cool. I like that.
Then I did my journaling and it was outlined, too. ACK! I didn't like that!! I was trying to get the 'no edge' or whatever to work, and I couldn't. I was like DOUBLE ACK! I broke my program! Nothing I typed was just black type with no outline.
so I FINALLY figured out how to make my own style (it walks you through it, you just turn on and off boxes) to get the outline to turn off. YAY!!

 

Here's Mine:


I am so excited to see so many great photos making it out of my folders and onto my pages! This is amazing!!

Huggles!!

You can just load up the set of styles you are going to use instead of loading them all at once. I had to go through and organize mine... at the bottom of Leah (Mommyish's original Challenge thread at the bottom of her post is a Q & A video that explains organizing ...

 

Jealous of all the PS styles! I have Gimp and searched for plugins but couldn't find the particular ice look I wanted. Is it ok if I follow this tutorial to create it? @mommyish

 

Have to play around more with this. I have PSE 10 and followed directions I found on the web for it, but I still couldn't get them to load. It's probably time to upgrade!! So instead I played around with some different styles and ended up clipping paper to an alphabet and then giving it a drop shadow for dimension.
