Day 4

 

Using the kit you provided. Lucky to get this done as my program is acting a little crazy. It froze and luckily it keeps the project that had to be shut down without saving. I'm learning though. Sad to say I am missing my Photoshop a little.

Here is my Day 4.  I thought I would use the image from the end of the trip.  Thanks for another great lesson Carole.

This is my Day 3 page. I used a kit called "Irish Luck (dzzptt) - I have no idea now who the designer was!  The page is fairly simple, but the photo is the main emphasis.

 

It is great seeing the work everyone has done, certainly providing inspiration.

 

I also agree whole-heartedly with the comment about how good a teacher Carole is, so much better than a lot I have tried to follow.

I have also caught up with Day 4. The photo is my great-nephew Arthur who happens to have been born on my birthday (twinned birthdays happen a bit in my family!) It was really nice that we were able to travel to England to share his 18th birthday, missing out on family events is one of the disadvantages of being 13,000 miles away. Thank goodness for Skype!

 

The kit is "Celebrate" by Shelle Designs. I did put drop shadows on the banner and title but the background is so dark they don't really show. The banner is two duplicate layers moved to form one banner. The word "Celebrate" was in blue and didn't really standout so I locked the transparency and painted it with the pink from the banner.

This is my Day 3.  We were driving when we spotted this Koala in the tree just over the road, near home.  It's not often we we see them so close to the road.  Of course, we live in Australia.  Thanks Carole for these week tutorials and challenges.  I've found that I always learn something new, even if we have used the program for years.  It's great.

 

Cheers

And I thought I'd include Day 4 as well.  I love the way you do the watercolour and sketching on the photos, Carole, I have used a number of times.  These photos were taken at Kotor when we did a cruise there last year.

 

Thanks again for everything.

 

Cheers

Day 5. Many of you will know that I'm not a scrapbooker. When I do scrapbook I make my pages simple and minimal when it comes to adding elements.  No kit used.  The butterfly and flower elements I picked up online. Out of bounds technique was used on the butterfly in the round frame.  The work displayed is wonderful, each and every one unique and  personal. Well done to one and all!

I love seeing how everyone makes Carole's layout in her video their own.  It is the personal touches that makes them special.  I don't reply to every post, but all of you are doing great projects and I love seeing them.

 

Hugs,

Day 5

 

Here's my 3rd scrapbook page.  I created the red paper by using the eye dropper to pick up the red color from train photo, then filled the piece with the flood fill tool.  Added texture to red pieces using the texture effect.  Recolored orange glitter paper to be red and used as a pattern to flood fill pieces behind the photos and the title.  Black and white paper is by AMB Illustrations, compass from Carta Bella, train signal from PNG Tree.

Day 5

 

Jessica is another of my Grand daughters.  I created my own background and used an overlay from the kit.  I used a few other elements from the Sweet Shoppe kit "Soar" from the link Carole gave us.  I selected the butterfly and inverted the selection and tried to repeat the look that Carole had on hers by just spray painting outside the butterfly.  These girls are grown with children of their own now.  It is such fun looking back!  I forgot to use the glitter.

Finally did Day 3. (Life got busy). Here is what I did.

 

I struggled moving the text to right justify.  Kept moving it off the page and I coudn't move it over.  I will play more with it.

 

Edited to add: I want to "mat" my picture. Put a contrasting color around it to make it stand out more. I think that would be creating a rectangle of color and layering it behind the pic. Hopefully we will learn how to create rectangles this week! :)

OK, here's Day 04 - I used the little skipper kit that Carole provided the link to.  I think I covered all the topics in the tutorial...however...I have no idea how I got the little fish to cut off at the edge of the water.  I placed it there and was thinking about copying a section of the water to overlay the bottom of the fish so I pushed that layer below the picture and then I tried to select the water.  For some reason it selected the outline of the fish and gave me a 'promoted layer'.  I was then able to 'merge' that layer (I guess with the picture) and viola - I had a fish 'in' the water.  I have no clue why it did what it did but I liked what I got so...there ya go.

Just got around to looking at everyone else's wonderful pages. And their comments about how they created them.

 

I really have a lot to learn! When this bootcamp is done, I will probably find some PSP tutorials on youtube and learn the software better.

Hi Cassel, I've been searching my email and cannot find Day 5 of the bootcamp. Last one I got was adventure.  Has today's been sent? If so, I did not get.  Please resend to me and am sorry to put you through the trouble. Have been enjoying this and seeing everyone's beautiful pages. Everyone seems so nice and creative. Thanks so much for the time you have dedicated to helping others. I know I appreciate you sharing your knowledge to help me.
