Getting Started with Your Winter Snow Scene Card in Photoshop
After you have collected your brushes and installed them, you can begin putting your card together. You will need to begin with opening Photoshop and creating a new canvas to work on. Create the canvas the size you want it. Then click OK to load it. Next, you
will want to create your background. You can use a free background from the internet or you can create the background with the brushes. If you want to create a background with the brushes, change the canvas color to what you want. If you want to use a background from the internet, you will need to import the background.
Once you have your background, you can grab your brush tool from the toolbar, open your brush panel,
and select the brush you want to use. Then click your canvas to start using your brush. You can click your mouse once for the brush or multiple times. If you make a click and don’t like what appears, use the CTRL Z option to undo it.
To use your Christmas symbols, you will need to open your Symbols box, find the symbol you want to use and click it. Once you click it, you will see it appear on the card you are making. You will probably have to click it and move it around the card to where you want it.
