      Annie, both beautiful! I love everything: papers, colors, elements… You definitely got your mojo back, my friend!

      I am postponing, but I think I have to install the Nexus Font to better view all the fonts I have installed. Thanks, Annie, for reminding me of it.

          Hi De, and Hi, Everyone!

          I have participated a few times, and it has always been FUN. Lately, I haven’t been inspired to create layouts, so I hope that participating again will help.

            Hi Annie, no, the planets are not in a good alignment for us, LOL …I was never a fast scrapper, but at the moment, my inspiration is just zero, null, nada, niente. 😀 … To participate in the Calendar Challenge was ok because I didn’t have to think much besides choosing images from Pixabay… But I am Ok with that; I am sure inspiration will come back at some point… Meanwhile, I watch Carole’s tutorials and learn more.

            I didn’t know that the Ginger Spiced was a whiskey beverage; I assumed it was a liqueur that could be added to Prosecco or something like that.  I don’t know either if one or the other is available here in Germany. I will investigate. 🙂

            Best wishes, my friend. <3

              I also agree with Ann, Corrie, and Annie about coffee being one of my favorite drinks, although I would not say no to a glass of wine with some pasta dish.

              Ann, this is a fun layout, and to add the conversation between the glass and cup was a great idea.

              Corrie, nice layout, and I really like the colors. Carole has some great scripts, and I like this datestamp script; I think this is the last one, which I don’t have it yet. Imho, you don’t need to add texture to the orange paper, but you can always try and see if you like it.

              Annie, you have just introduced me to a new drink. 🙂 I don’t know this Ginger Spiced, and as I also like ginger, I think I would like it too… I will google it… lol

              I am still not inspired to create as many layouts as before. I finished the calendar pages, and I think I will go back to my Christmas Recipes pages, that I started last year and never finished.

                      Beautiful work, EVERYONE! So many new ideas, creativity, and inspiration. It is always worth participating in any challenge. We learn a lot.

                      Here are the months of March and April… As Sue mentioned before, there will be some tweaking later.

                        Everyone is doing lovely work for this challenge… lots of layouts to be inspired.

                        I have participated twice before in this challenge and use all my photos that I thought fit. Last year, I created another calendar, even though there was no challenge. So, I am using this time photos from Pixabay.

                        Here are January and February calendars.

                          Everybody has done such wonderful work; it’s a joy to come here and see every layout, what I could not do for a while.

                          Karon, thank you very much for your words. <3 … I am loving seeing your work.

                            I started this page last month, but only now I was able to finish it. I was inspired by a layout I saw some time ago on the internet.

                              Dear Sue, I am glad to say that after 3 weeks of treatment for an eye infection, they are ok now… I have never had anything like that, and it was a bit stressful dealing with it. Thanks for asking. <3

                              Another great layout and I love the font!

                                Sue, Ann, and Linda, beautiful layouts and photos!

                                I haven’t selected the photos I will use yet… Not sure which theme I will choose.

                                  Carole, I am already enjoying the new templates, and I am sure I will have fun as I did with all the other challenges I’ve participated in. 🙂

                                    I am having issues with my eyes, so I have not been working with PSP lately. Hopefully, it will be better next week so that I can participate in the Up-to-Date challenge.

                                          Here is my contribution to this challenge.

                                          I mirrored the sketch because I wanted the text underneath to be more visible.

                                          The background paper is a photo I took from the sign (first photo). Then Photo Effects>Sepia – Blend Mode=Screen over a layer filled with a green color. I tried different blend modes and colors before choosing this one.

                                          From Cassel: Ribbon (Ribbon Factory Script) / String Tube /  Screwheads Tube  /  Construction Alpha

                                          I changed the color of the Alpha with Adjust>Hue/Saturation/Lightness

                                                      Bonnie, the layouts are very nice. Good idea to rotate the sketch; I like the result very much and inspired me. I didn’t start yet, kind of stuck not knowing what I want to do. 🙂

                                                        Ann, you achieved a nice result with the Change to Target Brush. I never tried it.

                                                        Minka, I also think that both layouts are great. I want to try the Sketch Challenge, but I am stuck, uncertain which photos to use. This happens very often. 🙂

                                                        Lynda, very nice layout; I like the way you mixed the photos with the Pic-to-Painting effect… And it allowed me to learn a little bit about tomatillos. 🙂

                                                          Karon, thank you very much for your kind comment! And, no, I didn’t make the banner. It was a freebie, Fun in the Sun Add-On “WA Banners” from Palvinka, as I credited her on my comment. I tweaked a bit because it said “Fun in the Sun,” and as I had the word Fun for the title, I deleted this word from the banner. 🙂

                                                            Hi Nemisis, Michele, Sue, and Sandra, all of your projects looks great!

                                                            Michele, another tool I’ve never used  — Reflection Effect>Pattern —  I tried and I liked the effect it creates. I am noticing that there are so many tools that I never touched. And thanks for the link!

                                                            Sue, I also loves this bow… in fact I am a big fan of Cassel’s bow scripts…I love to see them at work!

                                                              Beautiful layout, Ann!

                                                                Here is the layout I created to practice the Lab10-M09 tutorials (Diamond2 – Banner Alpha – Interlocking pattern).

                                                                I am not a fast scrapper, but I like the long process of creation; even when I am not 100% satisfied with the result, I always learn something. I created a cluster to see if, with time, I get more comfortable with it.
