What are you working on (in September 2024)?

Recommended Posts

Sometimes I'm too tied up with deadlines and other projects. Then my time opens up and I can get into PSP again. It's so soothing and completely different from other things I work on.

This time I did a l/o with Moo-Deng. Surely you've heard of her? She's on the news, in social media posts, and has her own web camera documenting her progress.

I used a Katie Pertiet template (filmstrip) that I got for free, and modified it. Images of the baby girl come from online.

I think there should be shadows on the three pix, but perhaps that should have been done before I added the pix. Didn't work after they were Clipped to It. Oh well.....

I love it. It looks like a magazine page without the shadows. Another option would be a drop shadow on the template to make the pics look like they are below it.

Photo taken by Jacek /left side of the pic/. Right part of the pic-the same picture - created with Halftone PSP to a bit change a photo and IMHO Haldtone-BW line hanged the photo and NOT...he he. BTW, once more I think PSP is realy fine program:)

That is a really cool effect Kasany.  It gives it an old world feel to it.

I had to check it out because I have never heard of Moo-Deng, but I found something!

You're fortunate to have someone who takes lots of photos you can then use for layouts!

The challenge this week in the Paint Shop Pro Maniacs is path and this is what I did.  It took me a while to remember how to do that glow thing that I knew Cassel had showed us how to do.  I went to the blog - tips and tutorials - and searched Glow and found the one about using layer styles.

Likely the last layout for September. And another month passes by!

Our fall days don't look like the photo yet. That will be later in October. Lately it's been damp, cloudy, but still very humid which keeps the temperatures in the 20s C.

Old picture of my niece's daughter who is a lot more grown up now.

Only things I made/did were background (blending papers), the ribbon, and outer frame with bevel. All other elements & brushwork from Janet Kemp (DS) or Erika Designs. I am simply too lazy or time-constrained to make many of my own elements. Especially when so much good stuff is available for free often.

There is nothing wrong with using "stuff" that is available so widely and you used it in a great way too. It is not always easy qua time or inspiration to do everything from scratch!

This is so pretty and delicate.  Your backgrounds are so fabulous.  You are very good at the blended background.  I will have to try the outer bevel.  I havent used it before.

Sometimes, I want to make my own elements, papers, and so forth, and then... There are other times I have to use what I have collected over the years... Not to mention, I cannot even get closer to some of the designers' creations.
