It Worked

Cannot believe my eyes! I just tried Nicole's tutorial, and look at the difference!

This is the original picture. I played with the tungsten white balance on my camera, just like Nicole recommended. I tried -3, 0 and +3, and I think the colors looked more natural and accurate in the +3 picture.
And here is the result picture, exactly followed Nicole's tutorial. I think it looks wonderful. This is the best white background product picture I ever made! What do you think? Is it professional enough?I used GIMP on my Linux machine (at my office) for this one, but will try use the PhotoShop on home computer this weekend. Hope I can get similar results. I guess I can finally take some decent pictures for all the new pieces I made recently. I am a happy girl now. Thank you so much, Nicole! You rock!

And here is another great tutorial for you to try! GalleriaLinda from Gallerialinda Showcase posted this wonderful tutorial about how to make beautiful earring cards. I thought about buying them from VistaPrint, but after read this, I probably make my own. I have tons of scrapbooking paper and cardstock, should have some fun with them.
