5 For 5 Friday: Spring I: 5 Photoshop And Elements Actions To Get Spring Started!

Happy Friday!  Happy 5 for $5.00!  Happy Spring!  Tomorrow is the official start to Spring!  I'll say it a day early though because I am hoping to spend the day with my sweet little girl doing having some Springy Spring fun.  Today we have 5 Actions to get you started:  Spring Clean Base, Spring Dreams, Pastel-erator, Sweet Cream Haze, and Color Pop Brush.  Our goal this season (until June 21) is to release a Spring related set of Actions, Overlays, or Textures every week so that by the end of Spring you have a really comprehensive set of tools.  
P. S.  these are still perfect for summer!
P.P.S. these are perfect all year!
By the way...did you notice we got a nice little Spring facelift on the website?  Yay.  I am in love with it!  Soon, we will be bringing you a whole page on the website dedicated to resources.  This will be a page where you can browse our favorite fonts and other products to use in your business and on your website!
Let's go ahead and take a look at this brand new 5 for $5.00 product.  Don't forget to stop by on Fridays to see what's new!

Spring I

Spring Clean Base

Spring Clean Base will help you achieve a clean edit.  A clean base on which to play your Actions or place your Overlays.  This comprehensive Action boasts 9 layers and is our go-to tool for a clean edit all year.

Spring Dreams

A dreamy contrast Action designed to boost your colors, add contrast, and dreamy light all at the same time.  This is one of our most used tools (all year).

Pastel-erator

Have you ever wondered how photographers convert colors to sweet, light, airy, pastels?
Here you go!  Our Pastel-erator will do the work for you.  Instant pastels this Spring!

Sweet Cream Haze

No Spring edit is complete with a sweet creamy haze.  Our Sweet Cream Haze Action will give you instant soft, dreamy, vintage-like haze. 

All Actions in this sweet little set are powerful tools that have full layer-masking capability and offer full control over each layer.

Spring I Action Set:  Tips & Tricks

Spring Clean Base:  All layers are set to 0% opacity.  Simply slide the Opacity slider to adjust the effect up or down as needed on each layer.  Start at the bottom and work your way up to a clean edit.

Color Pop Brush:  Use a white brush to brush on brilliant color.  If you aren't sure how to use layer masks, see our tutorial here.

Spring Dreams:  Adjust the opacity up or down as needed.  You may need to brush off the effect on the skin, eyes, and possibly the hair.  If you aren't sure how to use layer masks, see our tutorial here.

Pastel-erator:  Adjust the opacity of each layer using the opacity slider.  If the effect is too much, brush it off the skin and hair (if needed)

Sweet Cream Haze:  Adjust the opacity of each layer using the opacity slider.  Brush the effect off of the face if needed.  View our tutorial on how to use layer masks here.
