I have recently received requests to make over two blogs with a theme similar to mine. I am truly honoured that the clean look attracts other bloggers.
Simple yet enticing. Can you give an advice on how to create a banner. I have a little knowledge of Photoshop, but I have a hard time doing figures, which I can easily if drawn on paper.
I’d like to create a banner for my sister later if I’m not too busy. Thanks for becoming an inspiration and adviser as well.
hi caerol! to draw in photoshop like what you draw on paper, you need a wacom tablet. wacom tablet has a pen that you can use to draw. it works like a real thing. but i suggest you use corel painter, it has more brush effects than photoshop, it works like the real thing. you just need to choose your medium, be it watercolor, pencil, chalk etc. the best thing is, it’s not messy like the real thing.
but you can also draw the banner first onto paper using pencil or pen. make sure there are no broken lines. later you can scan it and fill the colors using photoshop. if there are broken lines, filling colors is hard as the color will fill other areas.

Thanks Emila! For now I’ll try your last suggestion, but when I can afford already I’ll buy a wacom tablet.
Your advice is such an enlightenment! I hope you could post a bit of tutorial if it’s not too much to ask and if your time/schedule permits.
Thank again.
