The hawk is great. My brother has a hawk that visits him regularly. He calls the hawk “Max” (I don’t know why) and the hawk especially likes to take his morning dip in the bird bath. This spring, Max showed off his bride and his son (?) by flying them over my brother’s house. When I was looking at retirement communities, one my brother liked had its own hawk watching over the property. So I said to my brother, “How do you know that’s not Max?” Because, well, hawks fly…made sense to me. Dave looked at the hawk and shook his head. “No, not Max.” I guess I have to take his word for it.
Needless to say, my brother would love your hawk themed page.
I could easily spend time looking at a book of your nature related scrap pages. My mother was a lover of nature and gardener, and your pages remind me of her. Thank you for posting.
Sue, I love what you are doing. I think the hummingbirds are my favorite, but the other two are very charming in their own right. Such lovely results!
Well, I’m giving up on Pinterest for the week. I either get a message that my graphic is too small, or it lets me go through the “save” process but the graphic doesn’t show. I’m tired of trying and I’m tired of trying to reach a human being in the Pinterest world. I will sit and sulk instead.
I know next to nothing about human babies so I’ll be pretty basic.
B = bib and baby (of course!) and bottle
I added some shadows….I think that makes it look a little more realistic. BTW, you can get something a little funky if you use some of the gradients (I do love my gradients).
I was playing with the ribbon in the Campus Lab for August, and thought about using a pattern instead of inserting my own colors, so I made a selection from a pattern that is already in PSP X8 (which is probably in the pattern selection of previous versions) and then made the ribbon from that selection. The top is the ribbon and the bottom is the pattern.
I posted several test runs with the Brick Wall script that is available in the Creation Cassel store (my graphics are posted on the PSP Scrapbook Showcase at Pinterest if you are interested). As I was playing around, I realized one could run the script on selections. Attached is one I did with a word. One caveat: the script does fill in the background with whatever you choose as a “grout” color, but that can easily be removed (if you want) or kept, depending on what you want to achieve. I used a gradient as my “grout” which is why I have the variations in background color.
To be honest, I haven’t exhausted all the tools PSP has yet. I’ve been playing with the “ribbon” from the latest lab class…how clever you are to figure out that. It’s hard for me to get a nice result thanks to the grumpy nature of my computer, but it is still fun to play with. I’ll be patient and not bug you about the new PSP X9 until I see the blog come out. Always nice to have a reliable review of anything new. Thanks!
That reminds me of a joke I heard on “Way with Words.”
“There are 26 letters of the alphabet but I can only remember 25. I don’t know why.”
Okay, I thought it was cute.
Cassel will see this question soon, I’m sure, and provide a better answer. While you can do many things with the Warp Brush and Mesh Warp, they aren’t exactly comparable to the Liquify tool. It might help Cassel to know what effect you are trying to achieve because she might have alternative ideas. Just a thought. Good luck.
Scott and Sheila….how creative you both are. I love what you did. The touch of musical notes really suited your respective themes. Well done!!
