Pocket Scrap- View of Tucson from Sentinel Peak

[Annie Tobin]

Wow Sue! This is a wonderful magazine cover ... very informative. Thanks for the info regards the British Painted Lady butterfly, what a mammoth journey. Nature is amazing. <3

[Annie Tobin]

Lynda, I love both of your pages and the color scheme you chose for the Biosphere 2 page compliments the photos beautifully. Well done Hon!

[Sue Thomas]

Thank so much Annie.  I'm delighted to see that you did learn something from the page.  :-)   Nature truly is amazing.x

[Sue Thomas]

Now to work on the pages of the Wild Magazine that I created.  So much information, and many photos can be displayed  on a  magazine/ newspaper layout.  Don't have to worry about framing, element or  shadows.  Here's page 1.

[Annie Tobin]

Sue, nature fascinates me and I love your pages. I don't take photos as I am pretty hopeless at that but I will take out the binoculars and have a peek. I watch a lot of the nature programs on tv. I read every word on this page and it is delightfully informative. Thank you.

[Annie Tobin]

Nice work on this page Trish, and it gives off a real beachy feel. Well done Hon.

[Lynda DiGregor]

Everyone is doing such creative work and Annie, you are the ultimate cheerleader. You always have something nice to say and I think it spurs people on to create more. So, I say thank you!  :-) <3

 

Since you seem to like the nature photos, I'm sending you a bunny and an Arizona sunset

[Sue Thomas]

Thank you ever so much Annie.  I have to agree with Lynda,  you are the ultimate cheerleader.  Lovely photos Lynda!

[Annie Tobin]

Lynda thank you so much and I must say that I only comment what my heart is feeling. These photos are delightful so now ... I shall have to have a play with them! ;D

[Annie Tobin]

You are always most welcome Sue and as I have just said to Lynda ... I only comment what my heart is feeling. ;D

[Teri Cleaveland]

Such wonderful layouts!  You are all so talented!

 

I do appreciate you all. I tend to dash on and off pretty fast, so I may not comment much.

You are welcome Annie. I also am speaking from the heart and obviously I'm not the only one that appreciates your comments.

 

I'm not following any special tutorial but I have so many photos from the area I am staying at, Arizona and Nevada,so I put this little piece of history together from the construction of Hoover Dam. In Boulder City , Nevada there are bronze statues throughout the town depicting the history of the town. This is one of them. You many not be able to read the plaque so this is a man who did one of the more mundane jobs necessary. He swept the outhouses and kept them supplied with toilet paper.

[Annie Tobin]

Great job Lynda and I especially love the frame you put around the photo, nice technique. I had a read and it is an interesting piece of history for Boulder City. It is lovely to see those with the less glamorous jobs getting praise after all, it takes teamwork. The statue is terrific ... obviously some talent in the town! <3

[Sue Thomas]

The photo of the White tailed deer buck is an old favourite of mine.  A relevantly simple page, buttonized frame around the deer, which I masked first.  A coloured gradient on the left side to highlight the text.  Beautiful page Lynda,  and an interesting read.  I like the simplicity of it.  I don't follow tutorials. I start with a photo, and  I look at it, and go from there.

[Cristina]

Sue, Trish, and Lynda, your work is lovely and so creative. Great job!

[Cristina]

Here is the layout I did to  practice the tutorials from the Lab10 Module 01 (Clock Face - Hour Hands - Antique Lace)

 

I used another template from Scrapping with Liz (Lots of Blocks Template2). Again it is about Christmas Markets, and this was the first one we went. I had fun, just the Antique Lace I had to do a few times until I got something that I liked and fit the layout.

[trish williams]

Lovely tribute Lyn, did you got down inside the the dam, I thought that really interesting , well done xx

 

Just a simple frame  , this picture seemed a perfect match for it x

 

 

[trish williams]

Sue, love that picture, love snowy pictures x

 

Christina, that a great picture, I adore that clock xx

[Annie Tobin]

Whatever your thing is Sue just keep on doing it ... it is simple and effective and showcases the subject matter beautifully. This is a beautiful page my friend. <3

[Annie Tobin]

Nice layout Cristina and the Christmas market thing looks like such fun. Your clock fits in well with the overall page and the antique lace you created is divine! Love your background paper ... well done my friend. <3

[Annie Tobin]

Natty frame Trish, I love it and you picked just the right pic to be showcased by it! Well done Hon. <3

[Sue Thomas]

Thank you Annie on your very kind comment.  Trish and Cristina, your pages are stunning.  After several days of thick fog, it finally lifted this afternoon to reveal a winter wonderland, with thick hoar frost. So off out I went armed with the camera. This evening's project, using this afternoon's photos. Quite a few techniques used in the project. I've included a photo which I used in the page after I extracted it. I edited it slightly to make it very easy to remove the background. I used the magic wand, but there are other ways to do it. The frame  is what I created the other day.  I changed the colouring.
