Hi Mirelle,

The file is called: ps_jessica-dunn_279398_naturally-curious-nature-paper_pu.jpg - It made me think of Spring, which is a good thing right now. ?

Thank you.

[Gerry Landreth]

My great-nieces, Corinne (6) and Amelia (2). The papers and elements are from a kit called Autumn Joys designed by Digital Design by Jodi. 

[Ann Seeber]

Here is my Day 3 Homework - this is my newest tropical fish. With Bettas (Siamese Fighting Fish) you can only do one per aquarium, otherwise they fight to the death. I have one small (5 gal) tank and he has a snail as a tankmate. The snail's name is Roomba. My photo for the background, colorized. It's so busy I didn't want to add much embellishment.

Project 1.  I made the cluster with the elements in the fall kit from PS cpJess frosty fall mini kit offered for this project.  Since I decided not to use fall colors in the mini kit, I colorized the fall leaf scatter provided by Cassel with the hue/saturatiion/lightness to green.  the gold flower is from the kit also.  In making the cluster which I saved as a pspimage, I made shadows on the individual elements - thanks for that tip, Carole - not sure where you mentioned it, but I remembered it.

@Leslie Jostes Better late than never. Welcome to the Bootcamp and you will see, you should have time to catch up. I see you added not only personality, but your personal bite mark! I hope it was good!

@Anja Pelzer Nice tablecloth that you did from scratch. Thanks for sharing your process. For your project 1, be very careful about rotating the buttons. A small rotation might work, but if you look closely, the 3D effect is rotated too much. I tend to never rotate more than 30 degrees on any element that has obvious texture/bevel/shading.

@Suanne Bundy Did you get the first few links yet? Let me know if there is any issue.

@Lesley Maple It is quite interesting to have such an angle for a photo. Even though that is exactly what you see when you walk your dogs, that is not typically how people take photos! That is creative! And your page looks good too. I see that your shadows are all accurate and consistent.

@Thomas WillisGreat page. Did you take the photo yourself? Don't hesitate to share that! It is part of the story!

@Steve KovacsThat is a stunning butterfly (the metal one I mean). Can you share what resource you used? I would be a little careful with the width of the shadows. Can you try to make them about half the size you used? It will make your paper element stick more to the background.

I see dozens of registrants who have not posted. Don't be shy!!! We are all here to help you and appreciate all your projects. We want to see them!

 

The kit came from the first site that you referenced as a source for paper in day threes instructions.  Fortunately one of them had butterflies as a subject.

Project 1.

I used the Frosty Fall kit. The drop shadow on the script text looked odd, so I didn't add it.

[Lesley Maple]

What cute pups, Gabriela!

[Cassel]

@Gerry LandrethSuch cuties. You did a great job with the lifted shadow on the butterfly.

@Ann Seeber Calling the snail "Rumba" is so cute!!!

@Mary Solaas You did a great job on the cluster!!!

@GabrielaAre those your dogs? Can you share what kit/supplies you used for your project?

@Linda J WalkerScript text often should look like writing on a paper and that commonly has no shadow, so you made a wide decision.

Get ready as you will have your second project tutorial tomorrow! And if you have not posted your first one, it is not too late!

[Tonimarie]

Hey there, I just wanted to stop in and say hello. I signed up for the bootcamp, which is very exciting. I am very new to scrapbooking, but I have been using PaintShop Pro for many years. I will probably be scrapbooking a lot of pictures of my children. This is my first photo for the bootcamp project; it's of my 3-month-old son (Zackary) , I'll post my first project; I did two of them (kind of roughly the same), )  I couldn't decide which one I liked best.

made a mistake :D

[Ann Seeber]

Hi Tonimarie - glad you could join us. If I had to choose, I'd pick the layout with the button. Zackary sure is a cutie! ?

Ann, thank you. I had to edit it because the photo is on top of the tree and ribbon, and I was up late doing it (while the kids were all asleep, lol).

beginner mistake ??

@Cassel

the three buttons are one element in the kit, I used it as is.

I like it just like it is.  I'm not in the bootcamp this time around  (did 5-6 of them) but dropped in to see all the wonderful creative layouts.  I love this one.

[Steve Kovacs]

[Tonimarie]

Project 2 really enjoyed this.

[Gerry Landreth]

Like mother, like daughter. 

The main font is Nonplussed and the handwriting font is Annisa, both from Creative Fabrica. The background and drawings are from Pixabay. The papers are by Marisa Lerin from Digital Scrapbook.

Anytime I can use SpongeBob SquarePants lyrics in context is a good day.

[Julie Magerka]

When I see these wonderful Bootcamp projects, I am amazed at how good they are! Well done everyone. When I look back at my very first attempts, they make me laugh, and not with good humour....but with embarrassment! ?

[Linda J Walker]

Project 2

We had a couple of buck visit our yard Christmas early evening. It had been a frigid day and they were hungry! I had my camera handy.

The font is Remington Typewriter, and I used the chisel effect on the headline. I used the Janet Kemp Woodland Winter kit, from DigitalScrapbook.com

Linda, WOW and WOW.  For the picture and for the layout.  I wish I had that kind of Christmas visitor.

[Bonnie Ballentine]

Linda, I second Susan's statement! Love the photo and love the layout!
