There are many methods for converting to black and white and with CS3's new black and white adjustment layer, many of the old ways will be moot. But here is one time tested method. I also like Kevin Gorman's method that can be found HERE..
This was done for the PS support group using Comic Life software on an Apple Macintosh. LARGE
I've put together a free tutorial that can really help your cityscapes pop. Amazingly, it only requires a few steps in Photoshop. I hope you find the information useful - www.throughstrangelenses.com/2013/06/23/cityscape-photosh...
take one premade bangle. because you wont be able to do much in the way of sanding after you have finished the bangle (pendant etc..) should be sanded to a high finished (dont bother buffing and definitely no polish)
in this case i carved a basic out line into the bangle with a scribing tool (you could also use a thick needle or even the back edge of a craft knife but the scribing tool is easier particularly for somthing like this with a curved surface)
i found with carving making a light and shallow line then deepening it with successive strokes was better than trying to create a deeply carved line in one stroke. particularly where accuracy is an issue
once you have carved your design take some well condition and softened clay (in this case i used black) using the back of a craft knife push the clay into the grooves and lines of the carving (think grouting tiles)
remove excess clay.
(here you can see the carved and filled outline of the ammonite and the section i have started to 'fill in'...i'l get to that in a moment)
This is ONE of my methods for making hollow beads. Follow the number sequence on the pictures to read the tutorial
Time for a test stamp. This will show you what pieces still need to be carved away, and any places where corrections should be made.
Make any corrections and...you're done! Don't worry if there are a few wonky bits, it adds to the charm of hand-carved stamps :)

Depois que gravei o primeiro vÃdeo, choveu de gente perguntando como eu faço para jogar The Sims em modo janela. Então, fiz um tutorial rapidinho mostrando o passo-a-passo. O processo é bem simples, espero que gostem!
A friend want to see how I will fix this photo, so here I made this video to show her.
This is not a good way to do it, and definitely not the best result you can get. There are millions better ways out there. So It's probably not good to follow this, LOL :)
Now you better go check her photo instead. :)
ps. caption sync is mess up, and i was too lazy to fix it, sorry :)
Tutorial for these and two more openwork bracelets is available in my shop polymerclaytutorials.etsy.com

This was meant for Xmas, but it took a little longer to edit it than planned. Anyway, I think that it will work nicely for Valentine's

I learned this on Scott Kelby's Wednesday Guest Blog. It's a technique used by a guy named Calvin Hollywood, which turns out to be a really hilarious name for some German dude who sounds even more hilarious in the video on the post. But anyway, that's another story. Some of his stuff is a little overdone for my tastes, but I do like the manner in which he brings out the details in a photo. Obviously, he's working with a much more professional setup than me, so his lighting and stuff is spot on, whereas the shot above is just some natural light coming from the window. Still, I liked how this turned out, so I thought I'd use it as a tutorial example.
First, I cropped the original image below to a square, and added just a bit of exposure to it in LR2. Then I transferred it into CS4 and did the following:
1. Control/Command-J to duplicate the background Layer.
2. Set this layer's blending mode to "Vivid Light". The shot will look pretty dark now.
3. Go to Image>Adjustments>Invert or just use Control/Command-I. This will look really funky.
4. Go to Filter>Blur>Surface Blur and adjust radius and threshold to your liking. This is weird because you'd think that blurring the image would not be what you want to do, but it works, trust me. Be careful with the threshold so that you don't see too much "halo-ing" around the edges of your subject.
5. Once the image is blurred, it will look really odd. However, now press SHIFT+ALT+CONTROL/COMMAND and the letter E. This will create a new layer with all of your work so far combined. Change the Blending Mode to "Overlay".
6. Now here's the key: Delete the first duplicate layer you made and you will now see the results of the enhancements. Pretty cool, isn't it?
Well, if you did it right anyway...haha.
Let me know if you try it, i'd love to see what you can get out of it if you like it :)
I finally finished it! It was about 3 weeks of writing bits here and there; but am finnalllly finished my tutorial on decorating butterfly cookies with royal icing.

I´ve been askes many times to make a tutorial about how I repaint my dolls and I finally started to make one.
The first part is done and you can see it here:
www.lulemee.com/2014/08/13/how…
The first part is about the supplies I use for my repaints. Have fun reading! The next part will be made soon!
** please note, I made a boob with the end pictures and 7 and 8 are the wrong way round. And the last one is number 9. That's what you get for working late.
1. You need to cut a hole int he back of her head to get access to the hair plugs. I cut the circular seam already on her head, but a square shape you work just as well. Cut her outer hair really short and removed with tweezers from the inside. (sorry I forgot to photo that stage)
2. I prepared all the mohair plugs by knotting 3 times to make them stay.
3 &4: because her head vinyl is so hard, you will need to make each hole a bit bigger to get the plugs through. It helps if her head is slightly warm. I use a really big dolly rerooting needle (the biggest out a set of 3) and basically force it into the existing hole to make it bigger. Get it stuck in and wiggle it about until I goes through.
5. Shows the enlarged hole ready for the new plug of hair. (this will shrink back over time).
6. I found that the tops of the needles just broke, so I use a bent piece of really thin steel or copper craft wire as a threader.
7. I fold the wire in half and I pass the folded end into the hole, from the outside.
8. (sorry, got the wrong way round): I open the loop inside the head and pass the hair plug through it. It is like a giant needle head.
7. close the loop a little and pull both ends of the wire 'needle' to pull the hair strand through to the right side, leaving the knotted end inside the head.
9. Heres a quick shot of her with her new hair.
Finsihing touch...Also reroot the part of the scalp you cut off and when finsihed, glue it in place with a strong glue like UHU or bostick. Leave to dry before gently washing her new mohair do.
Basically this is really hard work on the fingers. Making the holes bigger is the worst, but you can use pliers to pull the thread and hair back through to the outside of the head, which helps.
Sorry about the out of order pics.

I finally finished my stone half walls. This is how I made them:
1. Found two wooden wall art "boxes" at Hobby Lobby and painted them black.
2. Added egg carton pieces cut into stones with craft glue.
3. Painted them dark gray (2 coats) with acrylic craft paint. Let dry.
4. Used gray, brown, and white acrylic craft paint to add color variation/texture. Wipe off most of the paint before brushing over gray stones with lighter shades.
5. Sealed with 2 coats of matte art fixative spray.
6. Added more dry brush of light colors to make them look even (one wall was darker then the other) and get rid of any shine from the spray.
