Daisy Daisy give me your answer do. I’m half crazy all for the love of you. now that is an oldie
Cristina Minka Bonnie, and Annie, thanks for your kind remarks. Annie and Bonnie, neat idea for the frames.
Hi friends, My daughters scrap book is coming together. These 2 pages, were actually done following tutorials from the double take. So in page No 1, which is on the right I thought the element pages would be appropriate frames for the primary school theme, and in page No 2 on the left High School theme, I have created the frames myself using a gradient for the colour. Not very adventurous, but effective enough I think for the purpose.
I didn’t get to do the double take as planned as other things got in the way, and I wasn’t very well last week. Yesterday I looked at Day 1 and I aim to continue present challenges with the scrapbook I am doing for No 2 daughter. The photos I had prepared didn’t sit right for the template used, so I searched for more suitable ones, coming up with the ones I have chosen. I really needed the catch up on converting templates to masks and enjoyed following the tutorial. It has been quite a job trying to make old photos presentable.
Hi, friends, This photo would be a special memory for my daughters scrapbook, but I can’t see any correction happening. Any ideas or do you think I should flag it.
Karon, thank you for the kind remarks. I see you are working in the lab and you have inspired me to get myself back in there as there are a couple of things I need to give a try.
Following the scrap course module 1, but slightly swaying off the course and adding a 3rd photo I am continuing with my daughters scrapbook. My pages are numbered very random at the moment, as some photos don’t suit the challenge. I have used 2 papers, a patterned one a plain blue one which I have decreased to 66 so the pattern shows through. 2 elements and 2 frames. The originals don’t show much difference, but on 36×36 they certainly do. On the black and whites I find using Adjust brightness/contrast>full light clarity is very helpful.
HI there. Still working on my daughters scrapbook. I have until September so I am not as pressured as I was with her elder sisters. 60 years in 3 months was big time. I took the background from the photo background and put a filter forge filter through it, ths buttons and frames are from the kilt pattern. The element is a K.E design.
Minka No need to apologize, you are welcome to advertise our beautiful country. Maybe it’s the further you travel the better it gets.
Minka, never give up the music, it is great therapy and it has such beautiful memories for you. I had not long started learning the ukulele when my husband passed 5 yrs ago, he was my biggest fan and so encouraging. He would be so proud now to know that I have been out singing with a friend, and not a vocal ever came out my mouth until I was well into my 70’s.
Annie My cousin lives at Bribie Island and she has a kingfisher come to her for breakfast each morning.
Annie. No she doesn’t play piano, but her head is full of arty farty ideas. She does some really nice work Her toes are the same lol.
Whoopee Day 7, all finished and all grown up.
Hi I am still plodding on. Here is day 6. Thanks for the help Carole. I actually took the colour down on the background pattern and added a plain blue paper behind to blend.
Annie, thanks for your kind remarks. Yes she was a cutie, Finally I have left the black and whites and now into some colour on my day 5. I am a little behind this time but I have had some other pressures going on. Also being summer the garden doesn’t wait for psp. I am also enjoying your posts and yes I remember you telling about your precious little fellow.
HI, here is my day 5 and it is off to school for my baby daughter.
Annie, I think we are in the same boat, it is just as well we have some humour embedded in us. It was certainly a Carole job with the lost icons. She is a wizz, what would we do without her, I think we will have to clone her. I was interested to hear if anyone else had the same issue.
Carole, It took a lot of playing around to get the right balance because of the shape of the subject, and the black and white photos don’t help much. Hopefully I will be into colour soon.
Hi. I am catching up, here is day 4, and Aunty is taking her to the baby show.
Hi, here is day 3. , and thank you so much Carole for your help earlier. Now I am off to mow the lawn.
Carole, I am not sure if you are referring to Day 1 or day 2 backgrounds, but they both were papers from my collection. I did have quite a play around to choose the backgrounds, it is a bit different when you have black and whites. I thought I would use the bootcamp to start my No 2 daughters scrapbook. Just trying to get the old black and whites presentable is quite a mission on its own. You know we didn’t take as many photos in the day and the quality left a lot to be desired.
Nice to see you back Annie and I see you have a new profile. Super work too lovely lady.
Hi here is my day 2, my daughters baptism day.
I usually and like to work in psp 2020but have had to compromise this time. I have lost the row with the working options on it and for the love of my it just doesn’t want to return. If anyone else has this problem and can help, it is the row that has the icons to, open page, save as, undo, etc. It is very annoying. Usually I can fix it but I have tried all I can think of and it is not budging.
Hi here is my day 1, I finally got there. Thanks for your help Carole. My french is not very good. lol
Hi Kim, Carole has just informed me that you are looking for another Kiwi, well here I am from Alexandra in the beautiful Central Otago region. Nice to meet you, we are a pretty friendly bunch here. Where in this wonderful land of ours do you live.
Hello all. I have registered and enjoy all Carole’s challenges. As usual I haven’t sorted my photos, until I know what the theme of the challenge will be, but I think I will theme the months by using photos of of family who have birthdays for the month I am working. Maybe garden and pets on the off months, not that there will be many blank months. My issue is that I may not be able to keep up as last month I took on a big challenge of making a 24 page scrapbook of my elder daughter for her 60th birthday next month. I am on page 18, what a massive job.
