Sue Thomas Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Thank you ever so much for the lovely comment. Actually Michele! I started with the photo, on a new layer create the border with the rectangle tool, on a new layer select the font. Erase the border that runs through the font, merge down, textures, sculpture. I contracted the gold frame. I then used the eraser tool around the outside of the frame to remove the excess photo. That is how I got the photo to be included in the santa and snowman.

Annie Tobin Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Sharon ... I love your reluctant witch, she looks like she can't make up her mind between being a witch or a fairy! Thanks for your concerns re my pc. Yes it is operational but simply will not accept PSP18 or 2019 so I have to use X7. So far X7 is OK but it does come up with a errors and some peculiar technicalities. I will eventually move on to 2020 but for now the funds are limited so I am a little stuck, ;D Such is the way of it ... at least I can still play even if it is in a limited way! Hugs and Love my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Thomas Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Still working on fonts and frames. I used a heart shape font and a rectangle shape to create the frame. Using the inner bevel tool to try and achieve a cuddly, soft, squishy, plush frame. Selection tool, promote to new layer was also used. I can give more detailed instructions if you are interested. Chippy is my resident chipmunk, he arrived out of the blue in the Spring of 2018, and is still with us. He's quite spoilt, and has become quite friendly. I used the cutout effect for the text, from the hold on masterclass, as I wanted something subtle, to give the impression of the frame being squidgy.

Michele Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Dawn, I took your idea of using the corner punches for other than the corners. I had to do a quickie birthday card and thought this might work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Hi Annie, Dawn, Sharon, and Michele, thank you all so much for your kind comments on my layout!

Cristina Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I was stuck on page 1 and didn't notice that there was already a page 2 with more lovely layouts. Sue, what a cute resident you have! Beautiful photo and lovely layout. Michele, beautiful card, and also a great way to use the corner punches. I am always in awe of everybody's creativity!

Cristina Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 A few days ago, I stumbled with a half-finished layout that I started to work on last year for the November Word Challenge - Thanks. I know that sometimes I am slow, but this for sure is a record. :) I decided to finish it, and here it is. I used a template by Scrapping with Liz (Photo Mat Full Template2); a kit by DedeSmith (6Bes), and elements from various designers (Harper Finch, Kristin Aagard, and Janet Scott) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peggy Dyar Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I wanted to make a "cute" party invitation for Halloween. Took a picture of my cat with her bat wings on (cropped only her out of the picture), added lighted pumpkins to her eyes, used some distortion effects on the background, then followed the gradient tutorial to create a couple gradient overlays for the background. Since I wanted to highlight Bella, I added illumination effects. All except the picture cropping was done in PSP2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Thomas Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Part 2 of the Spooky 2 masterclass webinar from last Sunday. I had a little difficulty with this one, so not overly impressed with it. Now I know what is involved I shall keep practicing. I added some text to the first one that I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michele Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Cristina, it looks like you had a great time at that event. It doesn't matter that it took you a long time to finish; it looks terrific! Peggy, I LOVE that invitation. Now we just need the address (just kidding). I haven't had a chance to review the Spooky class, but Sue and Annie, you have done great jobs. You're scaring the heck out of me! Dawn and Annie, thanks for liking my card. It was a bit different from my usual stuff as I tried to make it in a style that my friend likes. I forgot to mention that the original pic is from a wonderful illustrator named Sunny Gu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
