    Jan @IntenseMagic Here are Screen shots to make the Grid (as you showed in PS CC) in PSE and then they can pick up with step 9 of your Tutorial. ** Note the line tool in both PS CC & PSE is located and nestled with the CUSTOM SHAPE tool**

    Now PSE users should be able to pick up with step 9 in the tutorial

    Thanks. Have been trying to do a work around, and hopefully have got close. Just one other quick question. Can you use other shaped grids ie. jigsaw pieces?

    You are welcome.. most of the time you can do the same thing in PSE as PS... it is just that things are in different places :)

    That is going to have to be done completely differently in Craft Artist. I think I know how I can get the same effect, will experiment later. Does anyone need me to post the steps I use?

    I did this in Artisan....just have to scrap my page still.

    I don't have screen shots, but hopefully this might help someone. I'm probably terrible at giving directions, but let's see.

    1. Put a photo on your page - flatten the photo.
    2. Go to the "Cut" tool and choose "Grid". Choose how you want your grid to look (remember the specific instructions). *I'm going to add a note here thanks to @meagan43 who noticed that there is a certain default spacing that will cut your photo with a certain number of spaces between the squares. If you want as little space between them as possible, move the spacing to 1 in this step. If you want more space, increase it. My default was 3 and that was too much...1 looks great to me!
    3. This will cut your photo. From there, choose which squares you want to color. Go to "Color" tab. I chose the "Wash" option. Hue does something way funkier! LOL. I simply played around with the different Wash colors until I received the desired color.
    4. I didn't like how spaced out the squares were in my gridded photo, so from here, I just made them pretty by grouping a row, moving it over 9 clicks of the arrow. Then adding the next row, moving it 9 more clicks, etc....until I had the whole rows moved. Then I did the same thing with the columns. From there I grouped the entire set together.
    5. Then I scrapped.

    It was actually easier than I thought it would be! And was happy I found a way to easily do this in Artisan! There are others on here who make much better sets of instructions than I do, so maybe something more or a different way will come along, but hope this helps someone in the meantime.

    I really liked this! I've never really played with the wash/hue options in my program and I really think this turned out kind of cool! Thanks!! I used blue, green, and red.

    thank you for introducing me to this new photo style. My adjustments are peach, blue and grey.
    [​IMG]

    I used Craft Artist.
    I created the grid by making one small square, selecting it and then going to the tools menu and choosing duplicate. I used a duplication spacing of 0.075 inches in both x and y directions.
    I then masked my photo with the grid.
    I created another layer and put a copy of the photo in it. Colourised that photo.
    Created a mask layer above the colourised photo.
    Selected some of the squares from my grid and "cut". Then went into the new mask layer and "paste".
    Repeated the copy, cut and paste for the other colour adjustments.

    If you need help with Craft Artist, please message me.
    (note for timezones I'm in the UK)
