Ann Seeber Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Finally finishing up the April Double-Page Challenge #6. Here is Shadow, one of the star black leopards at The Wildcat Sanctuary in Sandstone, MN. She's quite a gal! I used the Vector Tube script on the title and the font is Ravie. The journaling font is Kleymissky. The background is my own Shiny Paper and the stars are from my Rustic Kit. The paperclip is from Marisa Lerin and I used the Open Book script with a gradient cover. 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiona cook Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Just seen Susan's pinwheels which are fun and has reminded me that 'A Beautiful Mess' is one of my favourite Masterclasses. Must go over it again. The Serenity sympathy card is a lovely peaceful design. Too often these days, the cards you buy can be too glitzy as sympathy cards, I feel. Also love Mary's neat layouts. You are all encouraging me to do more and we seem to be keeping Carole busy with technical issues too. Thank you; all of you. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An unexpected passing away of my sister-in-law's mother on Sunday had me working on my condolence layout instead. Whew, that goodness I was able to go back to the Build A Kit workshop to the frame section and follow the instructions again. I used Lab 13-1 again for the shape, hearts looked weird inside hearts so i used circles. Frame is using Add borders from the master class Framing 101. My photo, and fonts are Romantic Serif (title), Sea Gardens (words in the template) and Audaciti (journaling). The title does have a bevel to help it stand out a bit, also has a very small shadow. reduced opacity on the title and journaling because black was too contrasty. I used the selection tool to fit my words in on the left side. the right side I just used a right aligment as it looked better that way. Nothing bad to report with PSP 2023. today it outshined me and any issue's I had was my dull brain at work and not paying attention. I think this is so perfect. What a wonderful tribute you made. Well done, Susan! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great sign this would make framed and hanging in the house. I wonder what kind of advice my cats would give me. Given their superior and judging stare, maybe I dont want to know. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest time sucker is choosing the fonts - so many, so little time! and the colors. I could crank them out all day long a a matter of fact. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donna Sillia Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 I have been working on a congratulations for your new home card for my niece. I may have already posted the front. The inside was suggested by my husband since we were gifting them a Home Depot gift card. The tools are from Digital Scrapbook and the ribbons and balloons from Creative Fabrica. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary Solaas Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 So, now I've finished the pictures of the Chattanooga Trip. I've completed what will go on the front of the album and the first page. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie-Claire Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 I've been busy making transparent alphas. With the help of Masterclass Alpha Making 2 I made the full upper and lower case alphabet and the digits, as well as some punctuation marks. Here I have posted some examples. 4 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Solaas Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 The 2nd page will be that DIY Challenge of the Glen Miller Gardens (a pond in the gardens). It doesn't match my running themes of the trip, so I include it here as the 2nd page which goes with the coloring, etc. of the 1st page. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a dumb question. Is the font itself transparent? So that any layer below would show through? The look is really eye catching. I'm going to check out that class. I have been watching classes when I warm of for my workouts and seeing that the ones I saw when I first started I didnt really understand. Now that I've learned more I understand the concepts of the tutorials better. Enough to know that I can be successful at trying them.

Suzy Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Mary, your album is incredible. I love, love the cover and all the information you’ve added. I think this is something I might want to duplicate, too, someday. SOMEDAY. But for now I feel as if I’ve had a complete travelogue of the city from you! (I love the song, too, but I never knew the entire first stanza!) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know that. It was on a plane crash as he and some of the band were on the way to perform for the troops. The plane was never found and it was assumed that it went down over the Atlantic Ocean - I believe he was on his way from England. This was shown in the movie that was made about his life starring Jimmy Stewart as Glenn Miller and June Alyson as his wife. I saw the movie but can't tell you when it was made - probably early or middle 1950's. Edited May 14, 2023 by Mary Solaas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
