@Cassel My daughter told me he was trying to grab her feet. -
@Jenny MacKay Simple but effective. Such a nice memory with that 14 year old photo! Is the shadow missing on the scalloped circle in the second project or maybe it is due to resizing? @Carolyn Rye That wooden "paper" is very interesting. Did you adjust the color of the paint or was it already blue? @Jean Naumann That starburst paper really puts the focus on the photo! @Cristina Have you considered using the "text on different surfaces" for the datestamp? Since it is "printed", there should be some "misses" on the edges of the papers/photos. @fiona cook I hope you don't have any more issues with the sites today. Yesterday, there was an issue with the Campus but the store is on a different server so that is surprising me (unless there was too much traffic due to the birthday sale!). @bina greene Did you use a kit with wordart for the kitties title? It is cute! @MoniqueN. You are correct: sometimes, resizing will blur, but there is even a better way (that I discovered afterward): when you export a jpg version, you can set the size to 600 directly on that dialog window so you don't have to resize separately. There might be a way to handle the resizing in a better way, but at this point, adjust the size in the Export command and it will even save time. @Sue Thomas Interlacing is so much easier to do in PSP. Once I find a satisfactory way to do it in Affinity, I'll do a tutorial for it. So far, I find it still convoluted. @Euka Which font viewers are you using? For me, TheFontThing allows me to see fonts in Affinity, and others use NexusFont. @Jacques Your titles/taglines make me smile. I can just imagine Brian exercising. I heard once, of an instructor who copied all the moves of a 2-year old as a workout: she had a hard time keeping up with the toddler! @Leslie Pugs When you have small text, avoid contrasting stroke as it tends to distort the main color and makes the text much harder to read. @Donna Sillia The circle almost appears like a path going from one image to the other! @Hank Sobah Paste from Clipboard is only available in the Affinity program. In PSP, we don't need it. @Sharla Great choice of a font for your title. @Deana Davis Did you end up getting the emails? Even if you registered late, you should have received the emails with the lesson links. On the other hand, as a DIAMOND member, you can access all the lessons in the Workshop Index. For NexusFont, check out this article. @Bonnie Ballentine Hey, you find heat where you can!! This type of photo with a story can be a conversation starter over time! @Jeni Simpson Since your title as a nice outline, you could likely add a shadow to it as if it is cut out of cardstock. Especially when you have your title overlap the edge of a 3D element (with a shadow), it would be more consistent as it would give it also a 3D effect. If you want it to look like it is painted (no shadow), you have to make sure it does not touch the edge of any element. For anyone who wants to START using Affinity and you want to have more than the regular 7-day trial, let me know (someone emailed me but I lost the message so I don't remember who it was). I was given permission to give anyone participating in these workshop, a 90-day trial (of course, you can only use it once!) -

Template 3 Still using Affinity Photo. 5 kilometres from home is Triflor New Zealand, an agent for Triflor Netherlands. Many farms dotted around the area grow bulbs for Triflor. I noticed one field just outside our village yesterday, with bulbs recently planted. https://www.farmersweekly.co.nz/people/how-a-southland-tulip-farm-grows-a-blooming-business/ The great advantage of living in a rural area is the community spirit. Every year, in October, the local Presbyterian Church holds a Tulip Day out at Triflor in Edendale. Triflor donates the bulbs, and the church takes the orders and payment. The customers pay around 80 cents per bulb, which goes directly to the church. Kit used is Jessica Dunn Spring Day mini Fonts are High Tower Text and Bargetta Script -

I use Font Runner and it works good with Affinity. I have my fonts in different categories so I just have to be sure the right category is showing in Font Runner and then it shows up in Affinity. It's the only one I have used so I don't know how it compares to other font viewers.
