Hi Wendy, Thank you for that tutorial, I have bookmarked, it as I am way to tired to even attempt it tonight.
This would look good on a Christmas card. I did make one fairly good card when the bird was cooking earlier today.

Hi Jane,
I am hopeless … if I put a bird in the oven and then started to play with Elements well I guess we would be having burnt bird!!. Once I get in front of the screen I just cannot stop …. today I was doing some Christmas baking and had to dash to the kitchen when the smell finally drifted into the study (just got there in time 🙂 ). At least this year I am well organised and most of the work is already done …. well except for my Elements Christmas Cards.
Hope the bird was perfect
Wendy
Hi Wendy, It did turn out rather good, and all the other stuff too. We all ate too much, except for our 3 year old grandson, he had a pack of M+Ms that he conned out of his father before dinner, so he didn’t eat too much, but he will get a snack later.
Even the dogs had a few bits of turkey sprinkled on top of their dinners.
One of my kids found a box of my mother’s family pictures at my brother’s house and I can’t wait to look thru it tomorrow, and will use some for the photo-restoration class that I am taking. We thought that box had long gone! With this and the stained glass, I will get a chance to use my Graphire 2 tomorrow.
Jane
Thank you, Wendy. I’m excited about this.
I cooked my turkey and put it in the refrigerator cause we were going to neighbor’s for dinner and they didn’t want my turkey, too. lol
So we’ll have it tomorrow.
I hope everyone had a great day.
Thanks, again. Shades of the fire tutorial?
Lorace
Hi Lorace and Wendy, I haven’t finished the fire tutorial yet, it is still sitting on the desktop looking at me. I think that there is a lesson coming up in my class that will be similar, so I will wait for that. Then I will understand better.
There is so much we can do with PSE that I sometimes just get too much in my "Projects" folder. I get carried away with some, and spend hours on just one method. Glad it’s winter,,,,,,,
Jane
Lorace & Jane,
Hope you like the tutorial … its not as complex as the fire one but it does take a fair amount of patience, plus because you have to switch layers all the time it is soooo easy to work on the wrong layer … 🙁 That makes a mess … it can be a big mess :).
Let me know how you both go on
Wendy
I am learning sooooo much, just been using PSE since last Feb, actually March as got PSE for my birthday in late Feb.
This is the most wonderful program I have ever used! But the steepest learning curve,,,,, It will take me some time to perfect and learn some of the more complex tutorials, but I will keep trying!
All these great tutorials you post I will eventually learn. I have saved all the steps. Thanks, Jane
Jane,
Now that winter is approaching New England, you’ll probably have more housebound time to explore the program! I grew up near there in Concord.
Nancy
edit—way to go Jane, putting up a Challenge!! (was it that you needed my itsy bitsy push?) 🙂
Hi Nancy, New England is indeed heading into winter, and I will have lots of computer time. We lived in Lincoln for a while, loved the area.
Just looking at the new challenge, St. John is one of my husband’s and my favourite islands! Was going to put our yellow lab on the beach, but P.J. White beat me to it.
Wind gusting to 40 and rising, so off goes the computer,,,,, till tomorrow,
Jane
Lincoln, Concord, that brings back good memories.
Two years ago I’ve covered a wedding on a farm near Meredith at Lake Winnepesauky (spelling OK?) and it really is a lovely area. Some day I will be coming back.

Leen,
I spent my summers on beautiful Lake Winnepesaukee (sp?) in New Hampshire as a child. Great how the trees go right to the water’s edge. My Dad was a real boater person so we all were good waterskiiers/swimmers.
