I love that background and the stamp is so cool.

Thank you, Susan. I am definitely saving that background as a psp image with the layers so that I can change the color. I don't remember where I got the stamp.

I made a video of my project with Canva. I saw one of the projects had lighter characters, but it's ok for now. Hope the link works 🙂

I made double pages, so it actually looks like a magazine. 😉

 

 

 

The book looks great, Monique. I love Canva and am planning on using it to make my flipbook.

Wow, this looks great, Monique. Canva is another choice for showing off our magazines.

Gefeliciteerd en mijn oprechte complimenten CAROLE voor de enorme oplage van items in deze magazine workshop. Helaas kan ik nog steeds niet meedoen aan zulke marathons. Maar prachtige werkstukken zijn er weer ingeleverd. Driemaal een hiep hiep hoeraa voor al deze prestaties. Jullie mogen trots zijn op jezelf. Het was een genot om er doorheen te wandelen.

Day 6 and I'm using PSP2020. Just playing with the photo to see what effect the masks have with it. Had to watch the video a few times to get the gist of this technique.

I giggled at the sound effects! 😉 The whole project is beautifully done, Donna.

Thank you, Ann. Strange, but I didn't hear any sound!

Yes, Jannette, it has been a wonderful way to enjoy the differences in our lives, from our computers.

The bit about the kids made me laugh out loud! Enjoy seeing your tour of Malmo.

Julie, I also laughed when I saw this sign in a shop window. 😄

Cristina I have updated to 2.6 as well but had made day 5 just before and when I yesterday wanted to use that technique again I had the same problem as you! I haven't found why and will have to look into this some more. Please let us know if you find an explanation and I will do that too.

Corrie, I haven't found an explanation, and it might be a bug.   I also noticed that in Affinity Photo 2.6, you are not asked to give the Group a name as in 2.57.

I went and looked at this, I have updated to 2.6 also.  I tried the process and noticed in 2.6 when I added the recolor layer, it automatically grouped the text and the recolor layer.  Then when you add the mask, it is putting the mask layer above the group.  You have to drag the mask down to the recolor layer for this to work.  Give it a try and see if that works for you.

Hi Linda, thank you for the tip. 🙂 

In my case, the Recolor Layer was not automatically grouped into the Text Layer.  I had to do it manually, as Carole showed in the video.

I don't know how you created the text, but I used the Text Frame Tool, not the Artistic Text Tool

I am not sure if this influences the outcome, as I have not tested this way.

Here is a screenshot showing the two layers separated.

As promised, this is the link for my flipbook about Yosemite NP. Maybe I should have chosen another format, but it was all new to me, so I want to show it anyways. The link will work for 1 week, enjoy 

It's great to see the result as a flipbook, Corrie. Great work!

It's not cheating Donna, it's delegating.

Good point, Susan! 😄

Donna, I get a swishing sound when each page is turned...

I am behind as I am also reorganizing things at home, separating household stuff, clothes, books, etc., to throw away or donate.   It's incredible how we collect things over the years; some I haven't touched in ages.

But I have finished a few more pages.

For Day 5, I created another page, this time using the Text Effect that had previously failed to work.

I didn't have time to comment on everyone's work, but I loved the variety of styles and themes.

Through the pages, I went to so many places, shared sweet moments, and learned a lot.

Thank you to everybody who decided to share their work!

There's an on/off volume icon on the bottom. It's the sound of a page turning.
