Alpha Tokens

[Brian Dowling]

This is a website image that features the 'Alpha Tokens' script.  This is one of a series and the wheel rotates for each one.  There is a lot going on here, but the script has been used for GREETINGS towards the bottom right.  I selected the size with a metallic gold colour and rim, the script then just trundled off and made the separate tokens.  I placed them overlapping with some drop shadow on to my main image I then added just a little reverse drop shadow in white ... this is where I put drop shadow at minus amount to emphasise the top left edge.

 

Other scripts in use: The MABON on my apple tree was made using Word Slats, the background used Grass Texture (brown with leaves) but I think that may have been too busy in the end.  On the left the Celtic Wheel uses CopperIt on the leaves, Leather Tags on the Pointer, Hammered Metal #1 on the seasons ring and square, the wheel sits in a base that used Rusty and the stone... used Stone!

I am always impressed how you use all those tools for something totally "non-scrapbooking".

Happy Mabon, everybody!

 

Very nice! Educational.  I like the Treatment of the word Mabon, too! And the Apples signifying the autumn…clever. So when it’s Yule Tide, do you use holly?

I have been picking the cooking apples and now have a full apple store... and some blanched windfalls in the freezer.  That's apple pies until about June next year!  Yule Tide will have holly and some of the snow script I think...
