Reflection: On PeeP

The value of this project is that it will put a smile on both of my grand-parents. Also instead of buying a present for them I made them one. I still like being a kid and making presents for family. I also love christmas so this is the perfect time give them a specially made card just for them.

Some techniques I used to complete my project is frist by using the gradient tool and changing the colors to green and red for a christmas feel. Then to show the snow I used the paintbrush shaped like a snowflake. On the red part of the gradient I used green snowflakes and on the green part I used red snowflakes. The change of the colors is so that you can see the snowflakes. Green on green and red on red is hard to see. Then I used a one of my grand-parents favorite pictures to make it more custom for them. I deleted most of the blue back ground but with out losing the square shape of the picture and without cutting off my grandpa's head. Then to make the picture look more festive I used the fuzzball paintbrush to outline the picture in a silver color the look like garland. To make it have more effect I used the small starburst paintbrush so that it looked like it sparkled like real garland. Then I add text "Merry Christmas, grandpa and grandma!!" but I could hardly read it so I added an effect which was called outerglow. I still didn't like it so I when in to its meun and turned up the noise to 100%. This gave the words a snowy look to fit the christmas theme.

The impression I got from my result is that I really love it, im very proud of what I made. My favorite part of my project is the background. I really like the snowflakes it makes it feel like christmas. But I am very proud of my finished product. It look just like I wanted it to.
