Obsessed with Letterpress

If you haven't discovered Pugly Pixel, you're missing out big time. Literally, everything, including the kitchen sink, and then some... The blog site is chalked full of tutorials, tips and leads on design tools including a market place or subscription option for monthly goodies. I just discovered Katrina's site and have so far enjoyed learning how to tie a bow tie, collected some great new photoshop brushes and were inspired by cupcake colour palettes!

Check out her tutorial for creating digital Letterpress effects in photoshop. I get the oxymoron of digital letterpress, but hey, not all of us are blessed with the tools for the craft so if we can fake it with style and not cheese, its as close as many of us will ever get.

Enjoy! And thanks Katrina!

Reving up

Sorry for the silence of late. I've had tonnes going on and really want to explore all the thoughts whizzing around my head of late, but time has just caused forced TidBits to slip on the priority list. I promise I'll take some time in the next day or so to post!
