About the image: This is one of my favorite pictures of my twins because they look cute and their blue eyes really stand out. I made a little five and a half graphic and made it into a brush for the background.

Photoshop has a steep learning curve, but once you learn a few things there is a lot you can do with Photoshop. I love to constantly learn new Photoshop tricks.

I do a lot of photo editing for websites and when my life is somewhat saner, I scrapbook every day.
What is your best graphics tip or piece of advice?
Continue to learn what your software can do and get inspiration by looking at what other people have done.

Sometimes my digital scrapbooking inspiration comes directly from the photo. Sometimes I see a layout in my mind before I even take the photo and take the photo to reflect what I want the layout to be. When I'm stuck I like to browse galleries like this for inspiration.
