Carpe Diem brush lettering resources revealed

carpe diem lettering by tristan b for besotted blog

We have been furiously working on launching our next set of Photoshop actions (can’t wait to spill the beans!) but in the interim every time I use the current sets I feel all evangelical like I want to scream from the roof tops that you need this product! We created the actions because a lot of the tasks we were doing in Photoshop (and we were doing A LOT of tasks there– Blog images, lettering clean-up, shop photos, etc.) were taking up way too much precious time, by automating everything it’s so much more efficient allowing us to do more of what we love. We want everyone that needs to use Photoshop on a regular basis to just be able to get in and get out as fast as they can (if that’s what they want to do). We are planning to work on some live edits very soon so you can see in real time just how quickly and easily you can clean up your lettering and illustrations (and also walk those that are newbie’s to Photoshop through our easy peasy process). This image would have sat scanned on my hard drive probably until by daughter went to college (she’s 2) if I didn’t have our trusty Vitamin L25 | Paper to Pixel Photoshop action set to use. I have been doing a ton of brush lettering lately because I am all amped up (and wildly inspired) for a our upcoming Brush Lettering week, we have interviewed some amazingly talented lettering artists that specialize in brush lettering that are divulging some serious secrets, we have a TON to giveaway: Classes, supplies, and yup, some of our actions. We just wanted to pop in and let you know what we are up to and we are excited as always to share our resources and finds with you-Carpe Diem friends!
