I have already changed the title on my own full sized layout but think posting the same layout three times with minor changes would be way too.much. I did not use a kit I made the paper and the scalloped edge a while back though I added texture now and turned the scallop.hanky into a ribbon, the round elements are a brush I made on the fly, from the v rake brush with rotation and color and step variances to make it wheel, the beads are a single ball on a transparent background used as a pattern with a brush with a scatter variance and color variance based off your snow variance settings, sorry to go.on so.long.
I had jumped the gun with this before , but made a change or two before reposting thisphoto is around ten years old now and this is the first hand beaded beladi set my daughter Mara made
here is my sandwich for this bootcamp I made the cheese swiss and poured some tea
Hi I am repeating the boot camp to fine tune parts I missed last time. had about a ten year break from scrapbooking before starting again in Sept . was confused by getting all the posts in one day I did the first layout today and used my own paper and ad libbed elements on the fly hope its ok if I post it now
I decided to use the kit which is probably the first time ive done a layout entirely from a kit, I enjoyed the layout and the tips and tricks but will probably remake this with different colors and elements I would have redone things for more contrast but was running out of time. I have really enjoyed the bootcamp and it has been a very effective refresher and inspiration.
I did not have photos of my parents and grandparents that went well together so extracted the colors from their clothes for the papers. My daughter in the photo, now age 44 had asked me to do something for her so I let this one do double duty. the butterfly is a preset shape the flowers were from a group mega kit and just say AC , May 2004
My difficulties were not related to the actual tutorial, I made my papers on the fly with layer s and blends and then got unexpected effects when adding the drop shadows, plus the photos were so dark that there was not much detail to bring out I did use a glitter but added an overlay to modify the color so.it may not be obvious. Base paper was.made from a digital.painting called unicorn barf, plus a pink .tile and a plain violet textured paper .my daughter is often called purple girl which explains the color choices.. I used a smudge painted flower, a buttonized dingbat for the flourish and a gold peacock motif I had previously made with a preset shape ,The peacock is the motif of the Goddess Hera and as such an ancient emblem .of marriage
tHIS WAS A CHALLENGE miy middle childs wedding in Sept very dark my laptop is out of battery so I will end now
Yes I’m pretty sure I did mess up.The resizing though I could claim.The kid looks weird I’m astigmatic enough that I don’t always catch distortions and unlike paintings you can’t pass off a photo club as artistic license , Thanks for telling me about font thing. I’m still working on issues with text but pretty sure I’ll get the hang of it eventually. Do you have tuts on.making elements ,? I’m very short on cute and decorative motifs such as those birds, though I could probably create some from shapes or ding bats or, if I were not still.having my weird issue with brushes , brushes.
I had done about 80 percent when I changed my mind about the photo and replaced the dog with my grandson at age one .I also forgot to make sure I could see the whole page so some off my placements ended up being a tad off. . I had more difficulty with the text than I expected . the ribbon and flower are from a kit called wild things from 2004 and the papers are mine the base paper was from a hummie tutorial called tea stains if I recall correctly. I wanted to ask a bout current usable font viewers too as I have thousands of fonts, especially dingbats, but don’t want to load them all into windows fonts.
I started out with a completely different photo then just kind of improvised the papers and elements and even a tube mostly from stuff id made about a decade ago , but I tried not to stray so far from the tutorial that it would be unrecognizable. me my two oldest girls and two kids who borrowed us a parents for a while
ok I’ve done the
I did the sandwich and table and it did cover a couple of things I don’t think id done before. I added a slice of cheese to my sandwich
Hi I am Peggy Im trying to relearn digital scrapbooking after about a decade off with mostly no access to computers . Ive forgotten a lot and am dealing with a vastly changed technology. for now I’m sticking to dark grey work space and lighter image background, brush variances is my favorite palette but I have not yet firmed up the best set up for me. I miss the materials rainbow picker as shown in the demo mine does not have the outer rainbow edge. one issue im having is that this particular computer has a high resoloution and everything is quite small for my old eyes.
