kountrytimes Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 They look wonderful!I think you did a great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charmcandleco Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 Thanks, I just thought they looked a little to bumpy. I think I will try using a little less ground coffee next time and see how they look. You should have seen the very first one I made. I put way to much ground coffee. My husband saw it and he said it looked like I had just dug it up out of the ground.LOL It was terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desertrose Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 "Dug it up out of the ground"....that made me laugh Very nice job! I'm not as game as you guys are actually grungying on the edges of the labels themselves. I like that look though.Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charmcandleco Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 (edited) I don't grunge my labels at all I just Google free primitive clip art and backgrounds. Then copy and paste to my photos. Then I just use Photoshop or one of the Avery programs. But I'm going to have to buy some. Because the free ones are very limited and you have to search and search to find ones that are even worth using.

Desertrose Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 So do you get that kinda burnt look around the edges of your labels using photoshop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charmcandleco Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 It is just a free background that I found. Here u can use this one if you would like. Just copy and paste it to your pictures. That way you can see if you enjoy making them. For this label I used Avery's Design Pro 5.4 Limited Edition. I don't know if you already have this downloaded but its free. [ATTACH]18395[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertrose Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Thank you for that! I don't do the labels for our tins (I just find the pics I like )...putting them together is Richards department but I'm sure he would love to play around with that one. I'd love him to anyway, lol!Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
