Libera - Your green triangle image is great!  Love the eyes on the letters looking at everything!!  And it's a nice tribute to Carole's statement (I bet she likes it too!).

Every single project I see in these threads make me smile. I am amazed at everything you can do with the little info or tools I provide. I make the first step but then you all start running like crazy. I can never imagine how far you all go with that. It is a real pleasure. You think of things I never imagined!

Been a busy month for birthdays 22 cakes this month, sure keeps me busy.

 

Caroles mesage on organising Fonts, hit home, I just bought the library for listing my brushes,  I need to catagories them, trouble is the pictures are so small, that the names of each one overlaps so you cant read them,    there isnt an option like the gradients to have so many on the page, so visualising them isnt much better as  the images are not clear,  so  its no better than running thru them,   I had 59 pages of them  6 across and 7 down, and still have brushes to load, you cant see a brush until its loaded. Does anyone else have this problem.

Trish, I can tweak the script to have the images larger, however, by having them larger, you have fewer on a single page and then, you have more pages to flip through as I assume people have a lot of them. You can also save the whole pages as jpg and import them into a Word document that you can "flip through" on your monitor while zoomed in more. Would that be an option or would you really want to have fewer on a single page?

Hello to all my friends at the Scrapbook Campus! I'm so sorry to have been away so long. I upgraded my PSP to 2020 and I've been having to make some adjustments to the way I work. I was doing okay until Windows got a major update and it knocked everything out of whack for a while on my machine. I still can't get Pic To Painting to work on my computer but I'm very impressed with the results you guys are getting. I played around with some filters that I have and somewhat created the effect. I'm happy with it anyway!

Sharon I really like the result you have achieved with this and the way you have used a slat effect. I have a real love of lighthouses and this is a nice photo. I am considering the upgrade from 2019 Ultimate to the 2020 but I usually wait a while to take notice of any reviews. My favourite version to date has been 2018 as I had very few issues with it. What do you think?

Dawn, thank you so much for your encouraging comment! I had completely forgotten about the Sheilsoft Script bundle that I picked up a while back. All the filters I used was in that bundle. I have to shout out a big Thank You to Carole again. She has them listed in the Resources section. If it hadn't been for Carole I wouldn't even know they existed.

 

Annie, overall I'm happy with the 2020 version of PSP. There are some differences with the Text tool but I'm about to get that sorted out. The brushes seem to be working better and slightly faster than before. I do get a bad slow down in the software when I first choose a tool that uses the brushes I have loaded. Perhaps I have too many brushes loaded LOL! I wish we had a brush management program like the fonts have. There are some really nice new brushes that I haven't explored to any depth but I really like them. Also there are new gradients and patterns as well. Lots of stuff to play with! The GRFX Studio is awesome and I've definitely got to play with it some more. The background paper for the lighthouse was created with it. I'm not a photographer so I can't really provide much input from their side of things, but this version seems to be geared toward that aspect. I'll have to practice some more to get beyond amateur.

 

I know they say simple minds, simple pleasures. I'm living proof of that! I just had to share another experiment that I learned from Carole. I watched the Brush Variance tutorials 1 and 2 and I learned how to make CHEESE!! I'm a happy camper now!

Dear Sharon, thank you for the information regards psp 2020. Like yourself I have a multitude of brushes and I am thinking I will have to cull. I am sure it is overload that slows down the program. I have some brushes that I got when I first started with psp in 2002 and I have never used them, :) Every now and then I go through and delete things. I am like that in the house too, definitely not a hoarder, ;D

hello Sharon... the Brush Variance master classes are great to view and learn from.. I enjoy watching them to refresh my memory as it is so easy to forget how to do a technique....... your experiment achieved a nice result and looks tasty.

 

best wishes,

 

Dawn.

Libera, you have been so creative playing with the triangles. The results are great!

 

Dawn, your card is beautiful, and I always love the way you use the punches scripts; and by the way, this flower punches script is so cute. Your work is lovely!

 

Trish, you have been really busy "baking" so many cakes!

 

Sharon, I like very much the effect you achieved with filters, and as Dawn said, it gives a vintage look. I am amazed by the cheese you made based on the brush variance class. It looks great! I haven't watched this one yet; there are so many!

Hi Carole, I only just seen your message re brush library, and yes please I would love bigger pictures, with my eye sight, it is faster the sieve thru larger images than the small one.  I have been turning some of the abr brushes images into png, which for me has been very helpful, and now know that half those brushes do not belong in brushes, so have some deleteing to do,  Thank you x

April, your flower punches-work is a beautiful composition of elements and a real color harmony, who is the author of the pearl of wisdom?

 

Trish, you are a real birthday cake specialist!! May I order the german chocolate cake :-) (Bonnie sent me the link of the recipe in the alphabet game because I didn't know what it looks like) and your triangle challenge is great, fantastic mix and color play

 

Sharon, nice to see you here again. windows is time and again a challenge too but not so relaxing (not at all) as PSP, I agree with April, effect with filters very well implemented as well as the cheese letters, did you find the tutorial on the blog?

 

Bonnie, just saw your well done pickle ball composition with the funny figures and the national champions.

 

We are lucky here to have more and more specialists, birthday cake, pickle ball, cheese, flower and corner punches, lab modules works, masks, pokadots, painting plugins .... How great is this ...

Bonnie! Thank you for explaining Pickleball. I had never heard of it. Did they originally play this game with pickles? I was just wondering how it got it's name. I'm going to see if I can train my dog to play Pickleball with me. It looks like lots of fun!

Technically I started a project in July but I didn't finish it until August. I created the Shadow Box in the intermediate tutorials. Of course it took me a while to create the various treasures that were to be displayed. I used the Glass Marble, Bottlecap and License Plate tutorials as well. I'm slowly learning how to create elements!!

hello Sharon.. nice work on your shadow box and elements... you have reminded me to use the license plate script again as it makes a great element.

 

hello Libera.. Thank you for your kind comment on my card... very much appreciated... you asked me about the pearl of wisdom ...I did a google image search for quotes about the rose and found  the one i used by George William Curtis.

 

hello Bonnie ... I have never heard of pickleball but it looks interesting  you must enjoy it very much. your pickleball expert page looks great.

 

hello Trish .. some nice triangle patterns created on your page.

 

best wishes everyone,

 

Dawn.
