My PSP Adventure

Hi everyone,
It has been a few days now since I have downloaded PSPX2 & I love it already! I joined a few PSP yahoo groups so that I can learn more about it & start

creating some beautiful images. The groups that I joined are:
PSP University, PSP Learning Tree & PSP University Club House.

I started doing some lessons at PSPU yesterday & I amazingly got 1 intro & 4 lessons completed. During these lessons I learnt the following:
- How to save as a jpeg or psp image
- How to create a background using effects
- How to create a background using art media
- How to use patterns to create a background
- How to make text match a tube or graphic

I was up playing til 2am this morning. I thoroughly enjoyed myself :) My next lesson is - Adding a frame to your tag. I am looking forward to creating my first tag :) When I have finished it, I will post it on here.

I know that the many of you that visit my blog will have a great knowledge of PSP & have probably been creating graphics for years, good on you :) Therefore, you are probably reading this & thinking "wow she really is a beginner" lol. Yes you are totally right :) However, my goal is to eventually make Scrapkits & the like. In fact, let me ask you a few questions & please feel free to leave your replies in the comments section.

Do you create your scrapkits in PSP or another program?
Also, do you know of any tutorials that show how to do it?
Any other input would be great..such as: How did you start out making scrapkits?

I will look forward to your replies :)
Take care & have a fabulous weekend.

A Whole New World

Hi there everyone,
Wow! Talk about learning & doing something totally different.
Today I decided to start my own blog & I really didn't know what I was getting myself into lol. I have been sitting in front of this computer nearly all day. I'm amazed that I squeezed in feeding my family lol. Oh well, guess what kids...Mum has found a new hobby :)

I downloaded PSP today. It has a 30 day trial & I can't wait to use it. I want to discover the world of tubing, making graphics for websites & also scrapbook kits etc. I am an absolute beginner so if anyone out there has some ideas or advice that could lead me into the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it :) Thanks :)

Anyway, back to it.
Feel free to pop in and say hi :)
Take care & come back soon.
Lisa
