New CU Sunday Freebie!

Happy Sunday All!

Hope you all are having a lovely weekend wherever your are in the world. It's a warm and humid day here in the UK. It's hard to spend much time in my computer room as it's very hot in here. This room is in the centre of my house with no windows and a door that looks out into my dining room. My dining room has a clear ceiling that lets in lots of light but also the heat of the sun bakes in there. It's hard to explain my wierd little bungalow but mostly its long and narrow and of course connected to other houses on both sides so there can't be any windows along the sides. We have one window out front and a sliding patio door out back so to let light in in the middle of the house, one room was built with a clear ceiling. That's my dining room. so the light and heat make it into my little computer room off of that. I have a fan but it's not enough some days. Today it's not so bad with the fan so here I am with your CU Sunday Freebie.

I hope this is something you can use. I made 3 Frame Masters for you to use in your designs. One is a metal tube frame, one is like cracked paint and one is a textured tile frame. They are all in greyscale so you can colourise how you want. Here is a tip for colourising: Open a frame, duplicate the Layer, on the bottom frame layer colourise in your normal way by either playing with the Hue and Satuation or clipping mask, then on the top frame layer change the layer property to overlay or any other layer setting you think looks best. You can even lower the opacity of this layer as well to get even more comtrol of how your colourised image looks. This really makes a good looking frame. Use this technique on any image you change the colour on such as flowers or ribbons. It helps make the item you coloulised look more natural. So here is your CU Sunday FREEBIE...hope you enjoy!

WOW! I so appreciate you sharing your lovely frames and how to colorize them. I have never had anyone share how to layer them for a better look. What a great idea. I am anxious to try it out.
