Wishing all my friends here in the Campus a joyous 2023 filled with love and good health.
My thanks to Carole and everyone here for all the fun we had in 2022. I can’t wait to see what 2023 brings!
To all who celebrate <3
Here is my daily gaming pic for today’s theme ~ Winter Solstice. I used papers and elements from a kit by Jessica Dunn at PixelScrapper. The font is AR BONNIE and I used Cass’s Dimension2 script on it. The pic in the frame is one of my avatar against a lovely winter background (I made it a few years ago for the same theme). Choosing Luminance mode on the pic layer and then duplicating it above with Normal mode and a lower opacity gave it the right hue I was looking for.
I cracked up when I found these purses. Figured I would do something whimsical with them. They are made by Hermes so the price isn’t whimsical at all…$65,000! I find it hard to believe anyone would spend that much on an accessory, but then again, I’m not part of the 1%. The font I used is Miliki and I’ve had it for so long that I don’t remember where I got it or if it was free or not.
I nipped a couple of pics from google for this; I believe they are sketches from Giorgia Couture. The background needed a little pizazz so I added a bunch of sparkles. The font is Brock Script, free from 1001Fonts. I just love the uppercase letters and the alliteration of the W’s really stood out for me.
It’s not really special, scrapbook-wise, but I thought it was pretty.

I got absolutely nothing else done today because I made myself do a “real” scrapbook page for a change. The inspiration was a template from the ALFLT August 2022 Blog Train by Ginger Scraps. The mandarin duck is a gorgeous bird and, no, I did not take the pics. I used the Cass-RibbonFactoryC script and the Cass-RibbonFlower script. I’m going to try to devote more time to scrapbooking and less to playing games; I blame my OCD. I got a real sense of accomplishment (after the frustration) when this was done! The journaling font is Give You Glory, free from Google Fonts.
Any suggestions on how to improve this are totally welcome and appreciated.
Thanks, Ann. I hunted. And Hunted. I also have a lot of pics that I’ve been saving over the years. Then I adjusted each of them.
Did this last summer, but I don’t remember if I shared it in the forum.
This wonderful illustration is by the amazing Sunny Gu. I love her stuff. It’s the first time I used Cass’s Seamless Pattern script. I used the smart selection brush to “lift” some of the flowers from the original pic and made a png seamless pattern. For darn sure I’m going to be using that script more often, hopefully when I have more time to perfect it. The font is Trench and the text cutter tool with a few drop shadows using zero offsets got this result.
Thanks, Sue. I’m also surprised I didn’t already have those punches. I think I’m only missing one or two now. lol
I had to run to the store and buy Cassel’s holiday corner and edge punch set so I could use it in the top right of the pic. It’s one of the only punch sets I didn’t already have. I was so happy it had holly! It made all the difference.
The illustration is by Inslee Haynes Farriss. The bokeh paper is from Chantahlia Designs (great place to get freebies; sign up for their weekly newspaper). The holly branch is from DSS. The fonts are Alex Brush and Admsdam.
I’m still getting used to sizing my pages for FB’s new’ish set-up. You probably noticed that they are adding random borders when you post something. (Stupid FB.)
