What are you working on (in December)?

[Annie Tobin]

As you can see I have been going back to the very beginning because they are such valuable lessons.  I simply wanted to cement some of those great tips from Cassel.  This is the very first Basic Scrapbooking Module 1.  I loved this simple layout and I used wonderful photos from Unsplash.  Actually I think this young man wears his freckles very well!  :)  Unsplash really does inspire my creative side, I see a great photo and think ... now I could do something with that!  Thanks for takin a peek my friends.  Hugs and Love......Annie T

Basic Scrapbooking Module 3.  This was a fantastic tutorial especially in regards to the way shadows can be used to enhance a scrapbook page.  Such dimensional power, :)  Thanks for takin a peek dear friends.  Hugs and Love......Annie T

I have not been here lately as I have to finish a few things before Christmas... When I do what a lovely surprise! ... Annie, you've been busy! I like not only the layouts you made but also the photos you choose... One complements the other so well.

 

Have I said I like your style? :) Hugs <3

[Annie Tobin]

Thank you so much dear Cristina.  It feels so good to be back creating again.  I may slack off for a few days now ... heaps of cooking to do, :)  Hugs and Love to you my friend.

I had to do something with this lovely photo from Unsplash by Marcus Cramer.  Thanks for takin a peek.  Hugs and Love to you all.  xoxoxo

Annie, this is beautiful!

You've been posting some great work, Annie. I agree that sometimes you have to go back to the beginning. There is so much to learn and if I don't use the techniques often, I forget.

 

Love the "freckles are like seasoning for the face" quote. Oh, and I use Unsplash a lot, too. Such a great source for free stock photos.

A birthday card for one of my group members. The adorable clip art was free from The Hungry JPEG. The brush font is Joyful from Design Cuts. And I used the wovenreeds texture from PSP for the background. I had a lot of fun making it, but I'm never sure of my drop shadows.

Just wanted to share how great Cass's wool picture tube worked with the vector tube script. I converted the text and the rectangle shape to paths and ran the script on each of them. Then I turned off the visibility on the vector layers. It was exactly what I needed to dress up the pic for the gaming group's daily theme. I don't know where the game developers come up with their ideas. LOL

Thanks dear Michele.  My mind was a bit of a quagmire so it was worth starting again, lol!  Hugs and Love......Annie T

Michele, that title is lovely!!!

 

Annie, it is nice to see how going back to basics is still inspiring you.

Very cute birthday card Michele ... can't fault the drop shadows, they look just fine to me.  Hugs and Love......Annie T

[Annie Tobin]

This is really cute Michele.  Love the technique you used, must give it a try.  Hugs and Love......Annie T

Gosh!  So many wonderful layouts!  Thank you all for your sweet comments!  I've been sooo busy this month making animations.  I don't think I can share them here.  I've been making buckeye candies, white choc covered pretsels and today I am making Spritz Cookies.  I did just finish another layout.  These are things I set out every year.  I just love them!

 

I wish all of you a Merry Christmas!

 

Hugs,
