What did you do (in June)?


Cassel

Recommended Posts

Back I May I mentioned I was  learning to create Display Card templates for displaying  how my finished cards look in reality after printing. With the help of Cassel's Perspective Master Classes, I am slowly starting to achieve the effects I am after. Well here is another  one I have done. The one below is a 5x5 card. Cassel's corner punches were used (I love using them). I also used a Rose PSP Script I purchased some time ago as they make nice elements for my projects. The background brushes are my favourite leaves and rose ones I use often. The dewdrops on the petals  I did with the water drop tube in PSP. The verse is one I have in my collection and I thought it fitted my project. I will be making some cards to give away as a gift.

 

Bye for now,

Lovely Card Dawn and great use of your imagination and PSP. I have quite a few disks for making cards but rarely use them. I tend to make 3d cards these days. Do you have a lazer printer? as, the other consideration is the ink my printer uses and boy is it thirsty. I am considering getting a Continuous Ink Supply System but not sure if it is compatible. Will have to investigate that one.

Thank you Sheila for your comments. No, I don't have a Laser Printer- I just use a Canon Ink Jet. I have quite a few different colours of card stock that I make the card bases with and I just print up my card toppers ( as I call them) on the best photo paper quality card  that I can afford and put them on the card bases. I  also use the cheaper inks  which I find are good enough to give a pretty good result, though, sometimes I just manually change the settings in the printer to get a better colour when I need to. The inks I get usually last me a while.  I enjoy card making and the family and friends I give them to, as gifts, seem to like receiving them.

 

Best wishes to you  and  bye for now,

 

Dawn.

Love your vector work Cowboy Joe, he'd also look great animated, I can just imagine his eyes moving. Did you make the wood plaque too? Vectoring is another thing I like to do with PSP. I would love to be able to do Pixel Art but all that counting is a bit like cross stitching and I always got that counted wrong so unless there is an easier way I think I will have to give that technique a miss.

I do pics for a FB gaming group I run. The game changes the theme every day and I thought a scrapbook look was perfect for this one. I imagined many young girls having a scrapbook of their favorite stars back in the 1960's. (Fab Divas is the name of my group so please disregard.) It ended up being a big hit with the members.

 

As some of you may already know, I don't do scrapbooking, but I've been able to learn so much from Cassel and the other people who belong to the campus and apply what I learn to the projects I do. Cassel's books have really taught me a lot about using PaintShop as they are written in plain English and from a user's point of view. I, personally, do not find the PSP User Guide to be easy to understand.

AprilDawn, your project is so very pretty.

 

Joe O, your cowboy cracked me up when he started moving his eyes.

mcfin, thank you for your kind comment on my card project. I really like your page and glad that you shared it with us. it is great to see creative projects of other members.  Your page reminded me of the movies and music of the 50's and 60's and how great it was. Hope to see more of your creations, and it doesn't have to be just scrapbooking.
