I've seen some fabulous shadowing work in the gallery.
Can a few people tell me how they prefer to do realistic shadows? thanks !!!! |

there are several different ways I do it, but my basics set is similar to these(https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/s...5&cat=0&page=1) by Jenn Barrette. I made my own, but they are pretty close to hers

using a set like that is a great way to get started! you can click on the layer style and play with all the settings to learn what they do. Adjusting the angle of the light, opacity of the shadow, and the distance are the three easiest ways to change up a shadow effect. There are numerous ways to shadow, and over time you'll evolve your style, but starting with a set like Jenn's is a great way to go!

I use Jenn's too. You can also take a little time to look at Jenn's layouts or the layouts of someone else who really rocks shadows. Pay attention to the depth they give different elements and stuff like that and try to mimick it in your own scrapping. But don't get obsessed with shadowing; it's a total time sucker!

I'm constantly working to improve my shadows. I try to think of how much shadow something would have in real life, also how much shadow is on the thing that the element is over (if it's over something). Such as a flower placed on top of a realistic branch would have a much larger shadow than a flower directly on the paper. You need to figure in the extra depth that the branch would add. (for example)
