Sharla Posted January 19 Posted January 19 Day 5: I found the boxes in the template a little too small so I made them bigger and reduced the number to 3. The photos were all taken on a walk in local woods earlier this month (January). The font is Righteous. The Papers are from Jessica Dunn’s Wildwood Thicket kit. 6 10
Sheila Hogg Posted January 19 Posted January 19 My template 4 result, completed quite quickly thanks to gettting to understand how the script work. Have had them for ages but never used them as I got into such a muddle before. Can actually I love them and glad I have them in my stash. 5 11

Susan Ewart Posted January 19 Posted January 19 (edited) Day 4 Font: Nelson (Creative Fabrica - Laura Worthington) Paper: Riley B Graphics (Creative Fabrica) The word "Echo" is the shadow only (of something once that was and now isn't) and I used it in the literary sense from a google search below. I shadowed the frame but not sure I like it or not. What does echo symbolize in literature? In literature and art, an echo can symbolize memory, the past, or the idea of something being repeated or reflected back. In many cultures, the echo has been used as a symbol of communication, reflection, and the interconnectedness of different elements.Feb 26, 2021 Edited January 19 by Susan Ewart 6 10
Corrie Kinkel Posted January 19 Posted January 19 3 hours ago, Susan Ewart said: I will use either black foam core or black Velvet. Velvet is problematic as it wrinkles and it picks up all the dust, hair, threads etc. But it so black that it's really good to use. With foam core the trick to make sure the light is not lighting the background, so the subject farther away is better so you can have the light fall off faster, and I even use black foam core to block the light from spilling onto the background. My set up is very "mickey mouse" (rag-tag) and not at all professional in any way (I dream of owning strobes, flashes, and light modifiers but they are too pricey at this time). I am in a "studio" (aka: the spare bedroom that was once my hubbies office...now he is relegated to the "cat room" for his office). It's small and I risk tripping over light stands and my camera on the tripod as I work. But I am ever so grateful I even have that opportunity to have what I have and so I do the best I can and try to learn how to make the photos I want. When I know better I'll do better work and when the time comes that I get the equipment I want I'll be ready for it (and the huge learning curve that goes with it). The photos I'm doing with the aged plants don't look great in my layouts as they really need to be shown bigger to see the beauty in the line, form and color of them. I'm also still learning about my newer camera. I had being using assisted manual focus but still not happy with the sharpness I thought I should be getting. Well, I learned that I could zoom in BEFORE I take the shot (as well as after like I had been doing) to make sure what I want in focus is in focus. I only just learned that two weeks ago. Yeesh! Why didn't I look that up before. So these shots aren't as focused as I like. It's a learning curve isn't it?. Thanks for the info, I was curious and I always want to know! Sometimes a good habit but not everybody likes it. And yes every new thing comes with its own learning curve and may we have not enough patience............... 2
Corrie Kinkel Posted January 19 Posted January 19 Day 5 Again a layout with purplish colors, I hope that is not becoming a new trend, but the color seems to suit the layout and photos. Although I love seeing colorful layouts, the ones I make are usually more subdued. The papers are by cpjes in the 2022 augustus blogtrain; the doily is by Sheila Reid. The ribbons and flowers are by Marissa Lerin and recolored. The brads come from my stash and the font is Bremlin 8 10

Rocky was a rescue and already named when I got her. She was named by children. I also had a male cat, Misty...also a rescue and named by children. Carole, the white circle inside the stitching...I achieved the brown pawprints using a blend mode...white paper, black pawprints, background paper. I had to hide the original white circle but am unable to add a shadow without changing the colors...the blend mode works with the layer directly underneath. Beautiful work. Can I ask what the name of the font is please. 2 1

Julie Magerka Posted January 20 Posted January 20 (edited) First chance I've had to catch up for this workshop. Did first three. The first (with owl) is a FB header; the second (monkey) is a Diamond extra template; and the third (falcon) is a poster format. I had to improvise on the wrapped text b/c I have trouble with that feature. Edited January 20 by Julie Magerka 4 9
