Pirkki, Mary, Lynda, Corrie, thank you so much, for the nice comments about the fanned layout 🙂
Quick-Page Workshop: Extra 1
I like very much that we get extra pages because I already participated in the busy-busy challenge of last November. So this is the extra page. Although it is a quick page I couldn’t help myself and made a name tag for the butterfly with the colors from the page.
Very nice use of the quick pages. Corrie, great shot of the Red Admiral butterfly, adding the tag is a nice touch, to add its scientific name.
I was looking through my photos and I have so many animal pictures that I decided to do something with them. Background is a color and texture, I made the frames and all the photos are mine. The butterflies are a tube.
QP01 and QP01 extra
I had the same idea as corrie for the extra QP, but in order not to have quite the same I tried to match the color of the QP to the color of the flower.
I haven’t really had a chance to comment on individual projects, but I’m loving them all!
Quick Page #02 – My family is Ready for Mardi Gras! My daughter, Debbie and her granddaughter, Magic, are draped in Mardi Gras beads for this photo from Northern California. New Orleans was the home of Deb’s husband, Lucky, and for many years they lived there. This is a reprise of a previous Quick Page for me, but I felt the design worked for the excess that Mardi Gras is famous for! The headline font is Horror, and I used a black stroke to emphasize it. I found the Mardi Gras beads on NicePNG, the brad I already had.
Corel Freebie – Heart frame. I used a photo from June 2021 because the frame needed a tall photo with the subject towards the bottom. I resized the template from 2000 to 3600 so I could use the cass-resize template script. So here’s my California family. I tried the Adjustment Layer but it applied any effect to the whole layout, so I pulled out the layer I wanted to adjust (changed the bird from red to white) applied the hue/saturation/lightness to it and then put it back as a new layer.
Quick Pages 3 – I wanted to add add a title but the font I chose did not look good crossing the lines and I did not think I could make it work with an individual letter between each vertical stripe. My solution was to copy the area of two vertical strips, rotate 90 degrees, stretch it out and use as a background for my text. I cropped area that went beyond the stripes so that the vertical lines touched the lines from what I had copied and pasted.
I tried other colours for the text and this one seemed to stand out the best so I decided on it.
I know this is about quick pages but I really did not feel it was complete until I did this.
with a little delay QP2 and 3 and QP2 and 3 Extra
for Carole who loves pictures with cats, here’s another QP with cat pictures, our cat Liberty who is now over the rainbow bridge.
My favourie things are Liverpool football and little cars so these were ideal photos fom C-Bit in Hanover >
