Thank you for such a quick reply.The stamps looked so real lol.

[sirroy70]

How do you print the stamps on the proper paper?

[c130bulldawg]

@sirroy70 Sorry, I should have clarified that these are not real postage stamps. You can upload the pictures to somewhere like stamps dot com to pay for real postage. If you just want to use them for decoration, you can purchase adhesive inkjet paper for your printer.

Cheers.

I always like your tutorials. I'm working with CS5 and PSE. Thanx for your tutorials

[c130bulldawg]

@sylviadegraaf Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. It gives me inspiration to make more tutorials.

I work on Photoshop CS5.1 mostly, but I'm seriously considering changing to Photoshop Elements because of your tutorials, you explain so well and seem to take requests, which is nice. Thank you:)

[c130bulldawg]

@amylovesdavidhenrie Thank you. I know most of my tutorials work with CS5 except some of the tools and menus are in different locations. If you have a request, let me know and I will work on it.

Cheers and thanks for commenting.

@c130bulldawg Maybe you could make a tutorial on making graphics? Like merging pictures and words and different backgrounds on one photo?

@hastetheday141 Thank you for your continual support and encouragement.

Thank you for the tutorial. I like they way you magnify the screen to view hard to see areas. This was a great project that I can learn and follow. I hope you continue to make more. Keep up the great work!

[c130bulldawg]

@Omega0401 I will definitely make more tutorials. Let me know if you are looking for something specific and I will try to make a video that will help. Thanks for the encouragement.

Well done Chuck. Merry Christmas.

[c130bulldawg]

@MrRudyc A very merry Christmas to you ;)

No complaints here on the scribbled notes!! For me, it is all a learning process. Just the fact that it worked out like yours was a miracle!! ha I LOVED the hint on how to put the photo in the stamp by using "ctrl + g". I just knew there was an easier way then how I was doing it. Oh and I just sent my sisters a digital "postcard" with your stamp on it! They loved it!!! Thanks again!!

[c130bulldawg]

@mammafishy Great minds think alike. I was going to put a custom stamp on some digital postcards and send them out as well ;)

This was awesome!! After 7 pages of scribbled notes and at least an hour later..done!! Followed along with your video and the end result was a cool little stamp.  Thanks for all you do to make these tutorials easy for the ones that are just learning!!

[c130bulldawg]

@mammafishy I'm so sorry about that. I uploaded the video late last night and just got a chance to upload the written instructions during my lunch. I know this one was a bit more lengthy than the others but I wanted to show everyone how to use patterns to make fun items. I'm so glad you got it and once again, I apologize for the 7 pages of notes.

Cheers.
