Morning everyone!
Sorry I missed yesterday;s blogging.
I had some emails of concern, but honestly
I was just so busy with that TV spot.
I am working on 5 projects right now but
I cannot share any of them except one and it's not finished
so I thought I would share a quick tutorial
that several of you have asked about.
How to BLUR the background of you photo
and make one focal point.
This is the orginial photo
I just took it for an example.
Step 1. Select entire image and COPY
Then click NEW LAYER and PASTE
it should look exactly like the original photo
Step 2. Select FILTER and use drop down menu
select BLUR then GAUSSIAN BLUR *that is the one I use but
you could use any one you choose*
Step 3. Adjust blur. 
Now your photo should look like this.
Step 4. Select ERASER and size brush you are comfortable with.
Now ERASE area you do not want blurred.
On smaller photos or spots, I ENLARGE the photo by pressing
CTRL and + to zoom in.
And this is the final photo.
Probably not the best photo to illustrate this LOL
But you get the idea. This is how I do it anyways :)
You can play with the eraser and everything else to make
it all yours!
Now I will be back tomorrow.
I do believe my friend MARCI gave me a GIVEAWAY
and it's a big one too! :)
When the TV spot gets online I will link y'all up!
It's coming I am told LOL
If not I will get a copy and youtube it!
~Have a great Wednesday~
