Every time I make something like an announcement and now blog backgrounds, I really wish I could learn more about graphics design and just let my imagination run with it. I want to create things like papers, overlays and embellishments from scratch instead of using free downloads that are already made... It would be so cool if this were my job...I looked into it, and going to DATC part time while being a SAHM would take 5 YEARS to finish...YEARS people!
So the plan is to wait until all my little chicks are in school during the day and I can take on more class hours at once and be done in a few months...and maybe even do some work at this thing I love!
In the mean time does anyone have any cool tutorial sites they like? I do have Adobe Photoshop but I have no idea how to use it- I have been using GIMP (which has similar functions but isn't as advanced I don't think). And what would YOU do if you could do anything?

I learned how to do a little bit on this one:

and I recently downloaded the Shutterfly program for my header. I too wish I knew more of all this stuff!
I know this is totally old, but I have a full on 6 month class on photoshop. I should find a way to get it to you. I only have Elements, so I'm sure it can help me out a little but I haven't been able to do all that yet.
I plan on going back to college for something when the kids go to school but I'm still not sure yet. I want to do EVERYTHING!
