Learn and win at Funk and Weber

March 5, 2012 by Denise Felton Leave a Comment

Check this awesome announcement from Jen of Funk and Weber Designs. And be sure to read all the way to the bottom because…a giveaway is involved!

I’m joint-hosting a webinar titled Best Photo Forward: Refining Photos of Fine Embroidery with PhotoShop Elements. The webinar will cover the following:

* what PhotoShop Elements is and why we should use it
* how to convey more accurate colors
* how to stretch and square warped or crooked images
* how to resize images for the Web
* how to frame a piece digitally

In addition to attending the live event, participants will receive

* Access to the live workshop
* Handouts and resources used in the event
* Ongoing access to the workshop recordings
* Sample files so that you can follow along with the demonstrations
* BONUS Photo Fixes for Real People – a jump start on using Photoshop Elements to improve your photos (Valued at $20). In this, Melissa teaches us how to digitally turn overcast skies blue; clean food from a baby’s face–or, um, mine; create a great group shot with everyone smiling; and remove red eye.
* BONUS Jen’s Top 10 Ways to Use Images of Our Embroidery

I’m holding a contest on my blog to give away a ticket to this webinar. To participate, stitchers need only leave a comment explaining their most pressing photo problem.

Go to Jen’s blog post to enter the giveaway before midnight (Alaska time) March 8. Her post also offers more details about the webinar and a registration link.

Ed. note: I wasn’t compensated for posting about this event. I actually think it sounds awesome!
