Default DGC046 - A-Round the Corner - 9/29/09


One thing that adds a nice touch to pages are photos with rounded corners. It's really not a difficult thing to do, but for many of us, we just hadn't learned how to do it. So my challenge to you this week is to learn how to round the corners on your photos.

Here are a couple of tutorials for rounding corners I found while surfing the web. The first is a video for Photoshop Elements and the second has instructions, plus a list of how to round corners in other programs. There are many more sites with instructions on the web, so if these aren�t a good fit for you, just google it!

http://digitalscrapbooking101.ning.com/video/photoshop-elements-video-3
http://thedailydigi.com/rounding-corners-beginner-digital-scrapbooking/
Of course, you can always use a template that already has rounded corners. For my sample, I used a template, but I rounded the corners of the photos myself. It�s a good technique to know!

So, the challenge this week is: Round the corners on your photos (or use a template that has photos with rounded corners.)

If you have questions, you can post them here or PM me.

You can view all submissions for this challenge here: DGC046
To add your page to this gallery, just add DGC046 to your keywords. Also, please take a minute to post a link on this thread so we won�t miss seeing your work!

Have a great week! I look forward to seeing your layouts.

Oh, and one more thing -- don't forget to leave a little love for others when they leave love for you. Everyone likes to read comments about their work!!

I'll have to check out the sites you found. Somewhere along the way I've downloaded a set of brushes that "cut" the corners and I've tried them but I don't know if I've actually posted them on any layouts I've done. Last night I went to bed at 8 after I put DGS to bed so if I manage to stay up later tonight, I'll see if I can check them out!

It'll be a good thing to know about...thanks Wendy.

(PS...I'm still looking for a picture to try the reflection technique on. Got the instructions for it sitting near my computer!)

I' so glad you gave this challenge I have been learning two techniques for rounding corners from this site http://www.scrappersguide.com/ and I've done pages for both.
Thanks Wendy

So glad you took the challenge and learned a new technique or two, Candy! Both of your pages are fabulous. Thanks for playing!

And thanks for posting the link to the instructions you used for rounding corners. I ran out of time to look for tutorials and this looks like a good one!

Good morning ladies, I have been nursing a very sore left knee. Even ended up in the emergency room with it on 9/20. Tomorrow I will go to see a specialist about it. Miss doing the challenges, please know that I do try to keep up with them and with you all. Kudos to all who are participating. Thanks Wendy for all you do.

Ouch! Sorry to hear about your knee, Marcia--I can sympathize--I broke my kneecap in two, back in 2005, and was laid up for quite some time. Knee problems are no fun!

Hope you're back to doing the challenges one day soon. We miss you! Thanks for the kind words.

OK. I've finally completed this one! While I was at it, I rounded all 3 pics! I had lots of fun making this page.
