Lesson 2. This was a great lesson. I have worked with this technique some years ago in a different software, so it was great to revisit it again. -

Day 4 with Affinity. This was fun to do and so easy! I used one of the brushes from Carole's link. The back ground is a texture layer with a colored pixel layer over it. Then I used a blending mode to get the look and color I wanted. -
Fun to watch. I especially enjoyed watching the kid in yellow on the right side of the frame (in the first dance). He sure was keeping up with the beat of the music. Too Cute!!! -
@Connie CollierSimple is beautiful, and it helps showcase your photos and your skill. @Jeni SimpsonBeautiful layouts. Yourfirst kaleidoscope pattern, I had to look at it twice to realize it was done with that technique. It looks so delicate! @kasanyDoes the rose have a black background or is that the shape of the mask? If it is the actual background, I think it would work better if the paper is also dark, otherwise, the contrast does not give a smooth transition. Your latest project is stunning with the black background! @Sharla I think that this pattern looks good. Right now, you are "very close" to your design so it might become "boring" to you, but for us, viewing it in a project, we just see the overall effect and it looks great. @fiona cookThat is a great end result. And you are totally allowed to play with all those effects. That is how you can discover something new or something you didn't think you would like. @CristinaUsing the pattern only on the edges is a great way to use it without overpowering. And with that light-colored photo, it was a smart choice. @Jen Brown Great to see you! Your first layout is wonderful. Looking forward to your other projects. @Robert GarrettThe effect is much more striking with the resized mask/photo. @Donna SilliaYour use of the nested frames in your PSP project is puzzling me. It looks like some sections have a bevel but not all. It LOOKS like what is overlapping the mask has no bevel but the rest does. I think you COULD consider erasing some parts that overlap the mask and it would even show off your photo more. @Karen BorgmannThose Those boards are great! Did you make them from scratch or were they part of a kit? @Corrie KinkelYes, some things are harder or just not possible in Affinity. You will see that on Saturday!!! 😞 @Julie MagerkaYou might not think much of those kaleidoscope patterns, but I definitely think that they have great potential. Once you don't have them right "in your face", you might appreciate them more. @Gerry LandrethYour pages are wonderful. I think that Affinity is just like PSP: it can get finicky with closing and it is inconsistent. It is annoying, and usually, there is no specific solution unless it can be reproducible on demand. @gwen jewittthe bird layout made me smile! That is a great way to combine different layers in a single "story". @Hank SobahAre we invited to those festivals? They look great. @Ann SeeberIt is interesting how that shadow was essential for the text, and it looks good, making the text legible. @Clarineare you planning on printing an album about your grandfather? With all those layouts (and more that you can add), it would be great!
