Learning New Things..

Well hello! I'm in the process of trying to teach myself photoshop/gimp. I want to make invitations, cute print outs for parties, things for my friends, etc. 

This is something I just made really quick. It's nothing special but it's taken me like 3 days to figure this stuff out!

I'm having so much fun (now that I finally understand) experimenting with fonts, brushes, etc. If anyone has any tips for me, let me know! Maybe one day I'll be making invitations/print outs for you :)
