Postcards of your travels

Here's a fun technique I learned on an online course for Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0. It uses multiple layers and a sizeable film strip mask that you can fill with photos of your choice. I like the overall effect and they can be printed directly on 4x6 postcard stock. Let me know what you think.

Re: Postcards of your travels

I agree Bob...what a wonderful idea!

Very nice example too. I love that coastline

I've actually considered moving to the US, and Oregon was one of the States I looked at.
It really is a beautiful place Bob

For me this site is far better than any book for Elements. It's a subscription deal but well worth it.

I shot all the photos myself including some just yesterday on a 160 mile motorcycle ride just for that purpose.

Re: Postcards of your travels

Simple idea, but very effective!!

Looks like it is an easy effect to do, without having seen the tutorial.


Very nice work bob.
