I have a tutorial up on &Stitches today for the duplicate stitch. It's a fun way to add color to knitwear.
I made a tutorial for my doll house, it's on my blog if you'd like to read it! It's really more of a guideline than a step-by-step kind of thing, but I hope it's useful. happydolls.tumblr.com/post/26764548213/doll-house-tutoria...
I made this from a tutorial about using the ParticleShop plug-in by Corel for Photoshop. I can't recommend this tool enough. Give it a try.
This is the second version. If you saw the first sorry, I had to delete it.
A layer mask is a secondary layer added next to the primary layer in the Layer's pallet as shown in the inset. You'll notice the thin black second border around that rectangle. It shows that the Layer Mask is selected. You do that by clicking on it. If you clicked on the main layer icon to the left, it would have the secondary border.
Also shown here are arrows pointing to other buttons in the Layer pallet. The three not pointed at are links, sets and trash can.
How I did this step by step.
1. double clicked the background layer and click OK to make it Layer 0 (you can do this with a single double click by holding down the option key, alt on PC). This is important since you can't add a layer mask to a "Background" layer.
2. I held down the command key (control on PC) and click the "New Layer" button. By holding down the key it puts the layer below the layer with my ugly mug. If you didn't hold it down key the blank layer would appear above. If it did, just drag it below
3. The newly created layer should now be highlighted in some color indicating that it is chosen (or selected, this can be confusing because "selecting" means something different when using the marquee or lasso tool.) If it is not highlighted, then click on it. and use the gradient tool to fill it with a gradient (using the gradient tool is pretty basic: choose from the gradient menu and drag across the layer).
4. Next click back on Layer 0 (here, it is pix of the goofy man with his tongue out) and then click the layer mask button. A mask icon should appear on that layer (to the right) and the double line should indicate the mask is chosen.
5. Take the lasso tool and draw a loose circle around the object (here it's Me), when you release the mouse button, should see the marching ants (luv that term, that would be a good title for an animated movie "The Marching Ants".)
6. Inverse the selection, either from the Select menu or keyboard shortcut of Command (ctrl on pc) + shift + i . Hit "d" on the keyboard, setting your default colors and then use the keyboard shortcut of command (ctrl on pc) + delete. This fills the selected areas on the mask with black. You masked area should make that area disappear on the photo. You can also do it the long way by going Edit > Fill and choose black, from the menu.
7. Now at this point it helps to have a Wacom tablet, but if you don't it can be done with a mouse. First deselect (command + d or Select > Deselect from the menu). Then hit "x" on the keyboard, making black the foreground color. choose a soft brush with a size allowing you to paint larger areas ( The "[" key makes it smaller and the "]" makes it larger. Add the shift to soften or harden).
8. Paint in black (making sure the double border is still around the mask icon -- no mad clicking allowed) along the edges of the object (Me again).
9. Eventually you will have "masked" out what you want to hide and let the gradient background show through. If you mess up remember the "x" key. It will flop foreground and background colors. Paint in white to unmask and black to mask.
I hope that's clear and helps someone.
Tutorial for this and that knotology sphere.
Made with the Heinz Strobl's knotology method.
Prepare 12 paper strips (if this will be your first sphere, I recommend use of different colors). My sphere in this tutorial is made from six colors (two strips each of them). But nice sphere could be made from two colors (6 strips each of them).
Fold each strip in 22 squares, add also diagonals like in the picture. The little pegs mark important position in the strips.
This is an image from a tutorial I wrote showing how to create a cloudy text
Tutorial at: abduzeedo.com/photoshop-quick-tips-6-cloudy-text
Now place the image down on the stamping rubber, and affix in place with a small piece of tape. Transfer the image to the rubber by shading over the back of the illustration.
Another technique, if you're using a photocopy, is to apply a small amount of acetone (nail polish remover) to the back of the paper. This does NOT work, however, with images printed by inkjet printers. (I learned that the hard/messy way!)
Note that some brands of rubber (not Speedball) have a printing and non-printing side, so be sure to use the correct side.
Lembram que coloquei a foto do antes e depois da make que fiz na minha amiga Raquel?? Então, acabei gravando o tutorial em vídeo.

This is some sort of tutorial on how I do my brick wall backgrounds. Though scrapbooking papers can give you a very realistic and easy brick background, sometimes I love to make a "real" wall with texture and color.
The wall is made out of styrofoam, the window is made of foamboard.
Another great way to add realism is by using sand paper and pressing it with the help of a ball tool onto the foam surface. The bricks will looks as if they have pores. Use different grades of sandpapers so it doesn't look the same everywhere.
Here is an easy Tutorial you can use to get this effect. The subject here is one of my favorite models, Granddaughter Ashley.
1 Open the tree pic. Check the levels so it has contrast, but not too much.
2, Put your face pic on top of the Background Tree image. Go to
image...adjustments...desaturate...(this will make the pic
b/w)
3. Move the picture on the top of the tree layer.
4. Press Ctrl+T to get the Free Transform Tool, adjust the size and position of the pic.
5, Open the layer Mask and with a soft brush eliminate the parts of the picture that you don´t want by brushing it with the black color.
6. Change the blend mode to overlay. opacity 100%.
7.Duplicate this layer, but change blend mode to hard light, 70% opacity.
8. Finally go back to the Background image you started with and duplicate this layer. Move the new duplicated layer to the top of the Layers. This, of course will wipe out all your work but all you need to do is to change the blend j of this layer to Screen or Soft Light and lower the opacity to about 40 to 60%. This step puts the bark back over the face. Your own taste will dictate how low to make the opacity here.
If you are one of the purists, you might want to put the warp tool on the face layer and bring the top corners down, and the bottom corners up, just a tad to get the rounded look.
Looks like you can skip step 3, didn't realize I had that in twice.
Here is an alternative if copying the entire background layer makes your image too dark. Go to the background Layer and select just the tree trunk, and press CTRL J which puts the selection on a new layer. Then move this layer over to the top and make the adjustments in step 8.
All the Photoshop Tutorials are Here
1). Top layer is at a #2 on my PM, cut thin slices of cane. (2) slices of cane layered on the top clay layer. (3) I put a sheet of parchment paper over and lightly roll in both directions so not to distort the pattern. (4) this is a stainless steel odor remover which I use to burnish the slices to the top layer. You can use a credit card or your roller to accomplish the same thing
Start with a hexagon bottom side up. I cut this hexagon from a strip, so some creases are already there. Make them too - fold the sides in half and then all 6 sides to the middle so that it look as the next picture

The wall so far, no color yet on it. Yap, quite nice : ).
Here's a nice little tutorial that I made on using scrap clay to make Organic Heishi Beads. The steps are as follows- 1- Chop up scrap clay, here I used old cane ends plus bits of white and translucent clays. 2- Add inclusions, I used coffee grounds and embossing powders, but you could add spices too. 3- Press together to form a rectangle or log. It's important not to blend the bits, just get them to stick together. This will take a bit of pressing and turning. It helps if you warm the clay first with your body heat. 4- If you made a large log, cut it into pieces 5- Pierce the cube with a metal knitting needle or wood skewer, then begin to round the corners so it can be rolled. 6- I elongate the clay on the rod by rolling, then pushing the clay against the needle. When you roll, it makes the inner hole too sloppy ,so pushing the clay back on the needle helps to tighten everything up. 7- When I reach the length of the needle, I remove it and use a long wooden skewer to finish the lengthening process. 8- Bake on a accordion folded cardstock for at least 50 minutes. 9- Let cool, then if desired sand and buff the rods. You could leave them as is too, for a matte look. 10- When finished put them back in the oven for 5 - 10 minutes. Remove them, one at a time and slice them with a sharp rigid blade while still warm. They cut very easily. 11- The completed Heishi Beads

She was a beauty--a gold 45 goddess for sure! A Gold 45 Goddess exalts the archetypal form of Athena--the Greek Goddess of wisdom, warfare, strategy, heroic endeavour, handicrafts and reason. A Gold 45 Goddess guards the beauty of dx4/dt=ic and embodies 45SURF's motto "Virtus, Honoris, et Actio Pro Veritas, Amor, et Bellus, (Strength, Honor, and Action for Truth, Love, and Beauty," and she stands ready to inspire and guide you along your epic, heroic journey into art and mythology. It is Athena who descends to call Telemachus to Adventure in the first book of Homer's Odyssey--to man up, find news of his true father Odysseus, and rid his home of the false suitors, and too, it is Athena who descends in the first book of Homer's Iliad, to calm the Rage of Achilles who is about to draw his sword so as to slay his commander who just seized Achilles' prize, thusly robbing Achilles of his Honor--the higher prize Achilles fought for. And now Athena descends once again, assuming the form of a Gold 45 Goddess, to inspire you along your epic journey of heroic endeavour.
