It is nothing short of miraculous that I created the gif below. I did it in Photoshop, which is now in its 13th incarnation. As I'm in my 50th incarnation, Photoshop and I don't really get each other. All of the young whippersnappers out there who grew up with the internets have no idea how strained our relationship can be. 

That all changed this weekend. Thanks to the lovely Angela Kohler and Bri Emery at Blogshop, Photoshop and I hung out together and got to know each other and only once did I call it a prepubescent idiot and shortly after, it crashed on me. Typical high-strung teenager.  

Basically I signed up for Blogshop's weekend-long workshop and streamed it at my convenience in the comfort of my own home. Bri and Angela teach lessons that are engaging, well-paced, and highly practical. The two of them have a professional yet down-to-earth style and a wonderful rapport with each other. Plus, they are darling. It was a bootcamp like none other. 

Follow their blogs too. Angela, a professional photographer, blogs at AngelaandIthyle and Bri, an art director, blogs at DesignLoveFest. Nothing but loveliness and smarts from both.
