With just a few clicks, you can custom color the Encouraging Verses stamps to match any card you may make. This first part is for Adobe Photoshop, but if you know your own program well enough, you should be able to figure it out, through the steps I have here.
Open your desired stamp in the photoshop program and click on the paint can application.
Now, choose the color that you want to use. The color choice box may be on the top of the screen, as well.
Now, click your paint can on the letters that you want to change. Done.
Here I colored the eagle blue with the paint can. Inside some of the closed letters (like the a, o, g, etc), it will stay grey, but just click inside each of them, and it will be blue, too. Now print on your CS, and you are ready to put it on your card!
This is what it looks like in the Paint program on Windows. On the bottom of your screen, you will find a color bar. If you double click it, it will bring up a window for more color choices. Then, you use the paint can symbol, as well, to color everything in. Hope this helps, have fun and happy stamping!!
Hi!

I have Photoshop Elements 6. I don't know how to use it. I did get to open the file and color per your tutorial but I am wasting precious paper. I get one to print per page and it's in the middle. I have a lot to learn. It looks really great though.
