How about a challenge that is just different?
Once in a while, I will present you with a challenge to do something that might or might not be repeated in other months. Just an idea that popped like that (and you can also send me suggestions for occasional random challenges too).
This time, I am including a layered template for a cluster. Remember that a template is ONLY a guide, and you typically don’t replicate the exact shapes. Replace circles by a flower, or replace stars by buttons. Replace rectangles by ribbons or strings, etc. You get the picture!
Now, click HERE to download the layered template. Then, incorporate it into your next project.
July 25, 2020 at 2:57 pm #45555Okay … I played with it … but mine didn’t end up looking anything like the template. Two of the most fun things I have learned while with the campus is to use the pick tool a whole lot more … and use shapes. It’s okay to go your own way. So the stuff she gave us is in there, it just doesn’t look the same. But I had fun playing!

Started to look a little crowded not sure about this!
July 26, 2020 at 2:33 am #45583Carole Thank you very much for the free cluster template. As I mainly use PSP for making cards I have used the cluster template in this one below. The photo was taken by my in-laws and I have used Cassels Slats Script on it. Flowers and paper in the cluster were made by me and I used Cassels Hammered Metal Script on the map of Australia.
Lynda your cluster looks great.
best wishes to all,
Dawn.
July 26, 2020 at 7:11 am #45590Dawn, I am so happy to see your amazing work being posted here again. 🙂 This is a beautiful layout, and I love the effect of the photo with the slats script (another one for my wish list), and the cluster is lovely. Best wishes, my friend. <3
Minka, it doesn’t look the same as the template, but the layout is very nice! I really like it.
Lynda, I like the cluster with parts of photos, brads… very creative.
Hi Susie, welcome! They are adorable!
July 26, 2020 at 7:56 am #45591Dawn, I love this. It is quite beautiful. You’ve used the cluster as well as the slats scrip to great avail. Photo choice used with the slats is spot on.
Susie,
Your babies look great…can’t beat that smile.
Minka,
Love your theme. Something worthwhile and it’s put together well.
July 26, 2020 at 7:45 pm #45604Hello Cristina… Thanks so much for your kind message dear friend … always appreciated. I have had this slats script for awhile and thought this was the opportunity to use it again.
Hello Lynda thank you also for your kind comments … appreciated very much.
best wishes to you both,
Dawn.
July 26, 2020 at 7:57 pm #45605Hello Minka and Susie… though not the same as Cassels template you both have created nice projects .
best wishes to you both,
Dawn.
July 27, 2020 at 8:23 am #45613I love how differently everyone used the template. I think that’s what Carole had in mine.
Dawn, I’m especially happy to see you sharing your beautiful creation with us. Love always.
July 27, 2020 at 8:31 pm #45623Michele, Thanks so much for your message my dear friend. … sending a hug back your way.
Dawn.
July 28, 2020 at 11:28 am #45637Cluster challenge. I did a great deal to create this page, masks, cloning, adjustment layers, rotate, fancy text, out of bounds. Textures, shadows. Created a bracket frame I used the section tool a great deal. I love everyone’s interpretation of the cluster. Such wonderful creativity by everyone.
July 28, 2020 at 12:36 pm #45638I love everyone’s projects and Thank You all for the comments.

July 29, 2020 at 9:03 pm #45688Beautiful work, everyone! My mojo has left me at the moment. If you see it, please send it home!
Hey, Annie! Good to see you…you have been MIA lately. Hope you are well!

Jnet, lovely to see you back too, and that you too are safe, fit and well. Beautiful pages created by everyone.
July 30, 2020 at 7:58 pm #45713Hi Dear Bonnie. I am fine my friend, I think I may have caught the depression of Spirit that is a by-product of COVID! Really struggling with my creative mojo but this simple cluster challenge has sparked my interest … here’s hoping! I hope all is well with you and yours. <3
July 30, 2020 at 8:01 pm #45714Dear Sue, I am fine my friend. As I said to Bonnie I am simply struggling with my creative mojo. I do suffer depression and the current climate does nothing to help. Enough of my whining … I hope all is well with you my friend, much love. <3
July 31, 2020 at 12:15 am #45715Jnet your cluster is beautiful.
Annie Thank you for your comments.. totally understand about your creative mojo I think there is many folk who have experienced it during this covid pandemic.. hopefully as the days pass creativity will return for you.
best wishes to you both,
Dawn.
July 31, 2020 at 12:19 am #45716Sue your butterfly cluster page looks great… well done.
best wishes,
Dawn.
July 31, 2020 at 7:48 pm #45724Thanks dear Dawn … I am keeping my fingers crossed. <3
August 2, 2020 at 12:44 am #45786This is the cluster which I made using a Digi Scrapbooking Boutique kit – Bee – Fairydust. Thanks for takin a peek. <3
August 2, 2020 at 4:18 am #45787Hello Annie, I am happy to see your smiling photo here again! 🙂
I understand that this is not an easy time for many people, with all the limitations and burdens that covid brings, but I do hope to see you here more often, showing your beautiful work. Stay safe and well, my friend. Hugs and <3!
August 2, 2020 at 4:28 pm #45816Thanks dear Cristina. It is a global depression that is settling in and for those of us who suffer from that dreadful malady it is like trying to stay on the surface of quicksand. I am usually able to stay in touch with my mojo but this time it appears to have ideas of its own, 🙁 I am attending the Using Scripts in Paint Shop Pro webinar this morning so perhaps that will give me a creative boost. Lovely to hear from you my friend, stay safe and well. <3
August 4, 2020 at 8:41 am #45876The month is over, and I finally finished a project for this challenge.
Finding colors was my main problem, and I tried different options for the background: Notebook Page, Kraft Paper, different textures, etc… I read yesterday a post from Monique (Bootcamp), where she mentioned Carole’s tip to play with HSL… I gave it a try, and I liked my first attempt. The original background color was yellow and this is what I got :0
Carole’s tutorials: Word Frame, Metallic Element, Yard Stick, and Pop Up Masterclass.
