Pop, tuck and curl your way around the page in Dimensions I! In this class, you'll learn now to develop two custom-shaped shamrocks and carve dimensional shadows around photos. You'll also create curled photo strips that look like they'll pop off the page.
We’ll explore the following techniques:
- Build a large custom shamrock shape guide
- Create dimensional shadowing and folding within the shamrock using custom shapes
- Develop a second smaller shamrock embellishment cluster and imply dimension using a Gradient Overlay style
- Design a simple photo strip and weave it through the shamrock.
- Design a dimensional photo strip using a Gradient
- Add contrast to a layout using opposing patterns
- Create a triangular brush tip
- Use the Brush tool to design triangle scallops
