Michele Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 DeLoris, I love how you have your text. It goes perfectly with the subtle background. Overall, it's a very pretty page. Cristina, a lot of work and love that went into your page. I'm glad you're finally happy with it. ~ Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Dawn, thank you! <3 ... Although it took me a long time to finish this layout (doing and redoing), in the end, it was fun and I learned a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Michele, thank you! <3 ... At some point, I had to say enough and move on... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 This is another layout I started a long time ago and only now had the inspiration to finish it but with different photos, papers etc... I used Cassel's template from the 2016 Calendar Challenge Day11. I used Cassel's Rope Picture Tube to frame the photos... Papers: Harper Finch (in the woods); Palvinka (We love summer) and Public Scrap (Escale Estivale)...The circular frame with stickers elements was made inspired by Cassel's Quick Page Day11 also from this Challenge. All the elements are from DiHiller (2018 Jun Pixel Scrapper Blog Train "Oh, the places you'll go and "June Bits and Pieces". Fonts: Bellatrix and Courtney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AprilDawn Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 hello Cristina, using templates that we have got in past challenges is a great idea and you have created a lovely project with this one... best wishes, Dawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Hi, dear Dawn :) Thank you so much for commenting on my layout! <3... I posted the page yesterday and today I corrected the title and tweak a little bit, different font etc :D ... Now, let's see if I can come up with something for the Word challenge, and the for Travel Tale that starts tomorrow. Best wishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michele Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Lovely page, Cristina. Using the rope as frames fit the nautical theme perfectly. I also like how you mirrored the buttons from the top on the photos. ~ Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Michele, thank you! <3 ... I like this tube very much... My initial idea was to write the title with it, but then changed my mind and framed the photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michele Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Here's a birthday card I made for one of my group members last night. I was inspired by a portion of Cassel's No Scrap Kit class. However, I used a different method. I created a rectangle above the background. Then I created a layer of text. Using the magic wand, I selected the text, hid the text layer, activated the rectangle layer and hit delete so the background would show through. On new layers I added white cutout effects to lighten up the "text" edges. Finally, I selected and copied the blue flower from the background and moved it to the top. After a couple of hours of trying different methods to achieve what I wanted, I was pretty happy with the results. I always end up making their cards on the day of so I have no time to plan. After reviewing their FB pages, I pick something I think they will like and try to get inspired. Wish I had more time, but every now and then I make one I'm particularly proud of. The original background really made the project pop. ~ Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michele Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Having fun with clipart, shadows, highlights, etc. I did not do the backgrounds for the dance floors; I would never have the time to do that and still meet my deadline for the day. The font is a new one I got as a freebie from 1001Fonts, called Popular Cafe. It's a nice fat font with some style. I was able to select the stroke color so I could apply an inner bevel to match the outlines around each pic. The little figures in the corners are from the game. Hope you enjoy. ~Michele P.S. It's GREAT to have the campus open again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Hi, Michele, I like your layout very much and the inner bevel made all the difference... Like the font too :) ... Nice work! P.S.: I agree, it is great to have the Campus up and running. Thanks, Cassel, for all your work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeLoris Musick Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 My grandson Danny spent the night with me Saturday night. Now that he is 11, there isn't much chance of him doing it. He has his own room, but wanted to sleep on the couch. I took these pictures while he was sleeping. I made this page for my yearly book and used Kimeric Kreations "For The Love Of Summer" to make it. I don't think you can purchase her kits any longer since the Digi Chick closed and she has passed away. I will miss her amazing talent! Danny also left me a bug and I feel really bad. My throat and chest hurts. He didn't go to school yesterday and his mom is sick too. Ya gotta love when school 1st starts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassel Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 Oh my... I knew of Kim's passing, but didn't know the store was closing! Sad news! again, we'll have to search high and low to know where the designers will relocate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Doris, nice layout to your yearly book. Get well soon! Cassel, about the Digi Chicks site being closed, I only know that Palvinka now has her designs in two different stores: Pickeberrypop.com and Oscraps.com. I am not familiar with the other designers, names or where they are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
