James Ernest Baptismal

This is the first male baptismal Invitation that I made and I love the simplicity of the design. I do some heavy clean up and retouching on baby James picture because his skin on this picture have this weird white spots — maybe it's because the image is dark. I like the way he looks at the camera — it's perfect!

Izabella Jane 1st Birthday

My friend asked me again to create an Invitation and Tarpaulin for her daughter's first birthday. She saw my daughters 1st birthday invitation and she liked it. I was happy because I will get a chance to make improvement on my design.

Most of the works I have done here are color correction and lots of retouching on the photos. Invitations are printed on a 4r(4x6in) Photo Paper.

LJ's 1st Birthday

This is for my daughter's first birthday party. I start off by taking a photograph of my little fairy wearing her costume. I then browse the Internet to get some ideas and found a beautiful sketch of Thinker Bell so I use Adobe Illustrator to trace, color, and tweak the image by adding a party hat. I also play around with 3d Studio Max and Vray to create the flower and balloons.

Mama and Tita

I found an old 2" x 2.5" photo of my Mama and Tita so I scanned it. This is my first attempt in restoring an old photo and adding color to it.

I first converted the image to black & white then I used Hue/Saturation with Overlay/Soft Light/Linear Light Blend Mode and Mask to color the picture.

I don't know if it is the right way to color it but I'm happy with it for now. I will update it again once I got some new techniques.

Laureen Jade's Baptismal

This invatation is for my little angel's baptismal — The very first invitation and design for print that I made — printed on a 4r(6x4) Photo paper. I taked my time on learning and playing around with blending modes, masking, retouching, getting free brushes on brusheezy.com and using or applying it on this project.
