I chose this tutorial so that I could better myself with the gradient overlay tool using variety of colors besides black,grey and white. I found it very useful.

I found this through PSDTUTs and enjoyed the effects. I've always wanted to learn how to do that strong white and black effects with a color overlay.

tutorial

Another one using layers which has helped me because I have found myself to absolutely ignore layers... why? I have no idea..

facial retouching

since my post cards are dealing with photography of children, I thought that a facial retouching tutorial would be beneficial in some cases. I found it easy using the different brushes, tools, and filters to create this image.

color balance..curves

I did a tutorial adjusting color balance using the curve method rather than different filter, etc. I found it somewhat easy but much rather do it through filters, saturation, hue, etc.

Tutorial

I really enjoyed making this photo pop! It was quick and easy and have always wanted to learn those steps and never thought that what I did in PS would make this much difference! It is also a good way to get familiar with different layers, filters, and color overlays.
