      Karon, thank you so much for your words of encouragement on my layout. They mean a lot to me.

      Your pages are lovely! You always show us great and creative layouts from the Lab tutorials/experiments. Great work!… I am still waiting for some inspiration for me to go back to the Lab tutorials. : )

      Annie, what a beautiful layout! I love the background color combined with the patterned papers/titles…  By the way, this is a very handsome cockatoo! : ) …Through the layouts posted here, we can learn a lot about other countries.

          Annie, you did it again! I love, love your layouts, all the techniques, and details. Beautiful work, my friend! : )

            Lynda, thank you for commenting on my layout. As Michele said, my confidence can always use a boost. : )

            Certainly, it will not be an easy task, and I do wish all the success for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’s government. This is important not only for the USA but also all the world. : )

              Minka, impressive result achieved with the Laplacien Enhanced plug-in… I like Carole’s Year in Review-2020 Template very much, and your layout, like all the others posted here, inspires me to create one layout of my own.

                  It looks like my previous comment went into a dark hole, so here it goes again…

                  Dear Annie, thank you so much for your words of encouragement. Hugs, my friend! <3

                  Val, thank you for your kind comment, but I have to credit Scrapping with Liz (The Lilypad), the template designer. She has created other templates for the Travel theme that I like very much.

                  Bonnie, thanks a lot! I have to say that I doubted myself along the process.

                  Thank you all for the comments; they mean a lot to me.

                    Minka, you create a lovely layout for Henry, and I love the puzzle photo in the middle.

                      I wrote another comment, and after I had edited it, it disappeared… and I did not copy as I usually do. : (

                      Carole, could you please check if it is hidden somewhere?

                        Bonnie, thank you so much! I have to admit I was not so sure about the result.

                        You all helped to boost my confidence. <3 Thank you!

                          Ann, thank you! <3  Being here for many years, I have learned a lot from Carole, but there is so much more!

                          I  started working on the background with the idea of having a grungy look…  After trying different techniques, I ended up with 4 layers. It was trial and error, and it took me days. Everybody else would probably be faster!

                          1st Layer: white background (optional)

                          2nd Layer: Pixel Scrapper-2020Sep Artsy Papers “A Beautiful Mess BG-03” – Opacity=75%

                          3rd Layer: The Lilypad-Allison Pennigton “Simpatico” Solid Backs-Kraft 05 – Blend Mode: Hard Light

                          4th Layer: Turkey Text paper – Blend Mode: Overlay – Opacity= 32%

                          I will add a print screen, so you have a better idea. : )

                            Finally, after a long time, I was able to create and finish one scrapbook layout. I am happy to be working again with PSP.

                            I added confetti that I created some time ago following Carole’s tutorial (Creative Scrap>Miscellaneous>Confetti).

                              Hi Michele, all three layouts look great. I like the Ice Text very much; the Illustration really draws attention, and the text and font in the middle fit perfectly. The Antique Mosaic added a special effect to the otherwise regular background. Good job!

                                Bonnie, what a lovely layout and bird. Great idea to use the out of bounds technique.

                                Lynda, very nice layout to showcase your macro photos. Great result… I love Cassel’s Lift photo script and you had a good idea to use it with the ribbon-like element… I have never thought of using it this way.

                                  I have not been very active lately, but I love to come here and see the wonderful work each and everyone is doing. Great job! The Campus is definitely a source of inspiration.

                                    Annie, thank you so much for your kind words. <3

                                    For the last weeks, I have been lacking inspiration for creating layouts and also for what to write… This is one of the reasons why I have not been very active here on the Campus. But, there is light ahead, as after working for days, I am finishing a layout, which I haven’t done for months. : )

                                    Although the long lockdown, the number of cases here is not going down, and the talks are that it will be extended again.  But I cannot complain, as we are all healthy, and this is what is important… For me, the vaccine cannot come early enough, but I have to wait for my turn. : )

                                    Best wishes, my dear friend! <3

                                      Hi Everyone! : ) I haven’t been here for a long while, and I see that there have been so many lovely and creative work posted in all threads on the Campus. I need more time/days to go over each one, but I just want to say hi first.

                                      I started again working on a layout… hopefully, I will finish it in the next days. : )

                                      Best wishes to everybody!

                                                Dear Karon, thank you so much for your kind words. : ) <3 … Christmas was different this year, and even with limitations, it was special. My mother-in-law was here as always, but not the rest of the family, and she was happy to see everybody in a video-meeting.

                                                Dear Annie, you have a kind heart for sure. I share the same beliefs you do; I have my faith, but I am not a religious person, and I also care about my spiritual growth, but I am pretty much aware that there is a long road ahead of me. : )

                                                Dorothy, I can only imagine how worried you were; the photo shows how bad it was, and I hope he is feeling better by now.

                                                Minka, you created a lovely layout with the wooden Alpha.

                                                Annie, you created a beautiful Alpha; I love it.

                                                  I can only hope that everyone involved in these tragedies finds somehow comfort and strength to overcome these horrible events.

                                                    Merry Christmas, Scrapbook Campus Friends!

                                                        This tutorial was so much fun. I am reposting here the 4th Gnome I created…  I am sure it will not be the last one.

                                                        I was inspired by illustrations I saw on the internet, and I used a cutout effect on the nose, as Sue McGuire did on hers (FB Group).

                                                        I used Cassel’s Metallic Rope-04 Picture Tube on the hat.

                                                          Karon, thank you so much; your words of appreciation and incentive means a lot to me. >3 You also never forget anyone in your comments. : )

                                                          Ann, Day 17 layout is beautiful, and I love the snow script… I wonder if this is not one of Carole’s. : )

                                                          Minka, what a lovely layout to register these unforgettable moments.

                                                          Val, thank you. : ) Carole has some great picture tubes, and I only remembered to use those in my last version. Your Gnome is so cute, and what a great idea to use the garland on the hat.

                                                            Minka, I love to read your stories.

                                                            Bonnie, good idea to use the paddle as a template for the subway art.

                                                            Ann, nice layout to register your good memories.

                                                                I posted, and after editing, the post disappeared. It might appear later as it happened before, but here is the post again.

                                                                Lately, I haven’t been inspired to create scrapbook layouts, but I had lots of fun with the gnomes, trees, and garland from December Masterclass. It was a good distraction to everything that has been happening for the last months and all the concerns we all have.

                                                                So, here is my gnome. I decided to create him mostly using the pen tool, as I am still not too comfortable working with vectors. I was inspired by some illustrations I saw on the internet.

                                                                Sue McGuire said on the FB Group that she had created the nose with the cutout effect instead of bevel, so I decided to do it with this friend.

                                                                I used Cassel’s Metallic Rope-04.
