Cassel Posted yesterday at 12:16 PM Share Posted yesterday at 12:16 PM Let's make things a little fun for you. Are you looking for ways to spark your creativity and still create something meaningful? This will be a fairly regular challenge for you. Every time, you will be given instructions to use 1, 2, and 3 of something. Would that be more than you usually use? or less? Let's see. Create a layout using : 1 folded corner 2 Polaroid frames 3 glittered elements You can create those elements or use what you currently have in your stash. Showcase any photo, use any template (if you want). Just make sure you include the required elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That folded paper looks real enough to touch! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Thomas Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago (edited) I must say I'm most definately not a glittery person. I rarely use glitter in my layouts. Saying that I turned my paperclip I created some time ago into a gold glittery one. The leafy elements I turned into a soft glitter, along with the wording. It is glittery, as I used the glitter 2 tutorial from the creative scrap, but toned it down somewhat. All my own work. 1 folded corner on a polaroid photo. For the papers I applied textures and blend modes, after selecting colours from the photo. Edited 20 hours ago by Sue Thomas 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am struggling with the whole thing. Glitter is not in my repertoire either. I have started and discarded a few layouts already. (Love the pix and the paperclip.)

Glitter is not in my repertoire either. I have started and discarded a few layouts already. (Love the pix and the paperclip.) I appreciate that Julie. If it's of any help to you, I always start by putting the photos onto a bank page. In this case the polaroid images. From there I create the papers. The size, shape, placement and number of the papers will be taken into account, of where the text, journal, title and so on will go. Elements are more often than not created and placed last. Quite often rule of thirds play a part in the initial layout. Direction of a bird, mammal insect in which it is facing, is also important. I suppose, it's my eye that determines the layout I go with. Maintaining a balanced minimalistic layout is what I aim for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't my intention to knit pick, but it asks for a folded corner, and not a lifted corner. 😉 I believe there is a tutorial in the creative scrap, on folded corners.

Donna Sillia Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago My daughter just sent me photos of some of the mushrooms that see saw on a walk in a Fredericksburg park. The background is called Wood Art from FF. the folded paper is one of mine with a mushroom background created in AI and blended. The big mushroom in the center is from Adobe Express AI. The title was also created in Adobe Express, imported into PSP where I converted it to a vector using the selection to path script so that I could add a glittered stroke with a layer style. I used a star sparkly brush to create the glitters. I used Carole's polaroid lab video to create the polaroid frames. The rusty nails are from Canva. I love glitter, and the stars brushes are great for creating scatters. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ann Seeber Posted 40 minutes ago Share Posted 40 minutes ago (edited) I did another one. I've been collecting fog photos and just recently got a river fog mini kit from Jessica Dunn. I used Segoe Script and Learning Curve fonts. The stars are glitter, colorized.

Corrie Kinkel Posted 21 minutes ago Share Posted 21 minutes ago And here is mine and I am not so fond of glitters either! But I have managed to make 3. I used a background from the recent ACD freebie template because it goes nicely with what I had in mind. I already had polaroid frames and because of the background and my photos I made leaves confetti from a photo with cass-Custom Confetti script; the new script from this week would have come in handy, but that is on my wish list for now. I have used the same extracted leaf to make a frame around my text and used it again to make 3 glitter leaves. The folded corner is done with cass-Folded Corner script, after I had to ask Carole why my script wasn't working as expected. It happened to be one of the older scripts that doesn't work in the more recent versions of PSP. So if anyone has a problem with that, there is a new script, thank you Carole. Of course I know how to make a folded corner manually but I still have some problems with my eyesight and those very precise actions are still difficult for me at the moment. Besides that I have the script to use it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at your folded corner, I should have used a different colour, in order for it to stand out more. I did use a reverse shadow, but with the compression of the page, it isn't evident.

Keeping you on your toes! 😉At least you may get to learn a new technique. Have fun, as that is what we are all about, whilst showcasing our photos in a creative way.

Thank you, but I'm happy with this color. I tried others but those didn't do it for me. Of course when it comes to colors it always is a personal preference. However the reverse shadow is missing.
