Photobucket is a really fun online tool for spicing up your digital photos. You can set up a free account on www.photobucket.com.
To achieve the effect below, I just clicked on Edit Images, Effects, and then I choose the Pop Art option. Pretty slick!
There’s all kinds of cool effects that you can create using Photobucket. Please keep in mind for Reflections photography entries, you can’t put text or stickers over a photo, like in the example below, but you sure can have a lot of fun! Entries with extras added on could be submitted in the visual arts category if you’d like.
Enjoy creating your art!

Hi -
There’s a free program online that you can use to create beautiful art in minutes! You can go to www.art.com and click on “art pad” at the bottom of the page to see the possibilities, or you can just click on the link below to go straight to the ArtPad program. After your creation is done, you can email it to someone, save it for later and/or print it out. When you replay the artwork, it shows each brush stroke until the painting is complete. Very cool! Check it out!

Please note the size limitation for visual arts entries - 24″ x 30″ and not thicker than 3/8″. Last year, several students turned in awesome artwork that was painted on a stretched canvas. These are closer to 6/8″ thick. On the Texas PTA website, it states that entries that are too thick “may be disqualified.” I’m certainly not going to disqualify any entry for being too thick, but there may be closer scrutiny at the state and national level, just so you know. I’d hate for your child’s hard work to be disqualified because of the canvas.
You can give me a call if you have any further questions at 439-9411.
Thanks,
Julie Samford
