What are you working on (in December 2020)?

[Ann Seeber]

Carole: I downloaded it from the link you had in the Master Class on Sunday and unzipped it straight into my 2021 Picture Tubes folder. Here's a screenshot of the location.

 

Sorry, it confused me because you chose a color for the wool in the video.

[Annie Tobin]

Your chaotic mind has created a beautiful page Minka ... inspired and so colourful, it is a delight. The sentiment you expressed on your page is heartfelt. Well done my friend and, like yourself, I wish for better days ahead for our lovely planet and her inhabitants. ;D

[Ann Seeber]

Advent Day 13 is actually St. Lucia's Day in Sweden, Dec 13. The start of their Christmas season. Just a simple page as I'm getting tired of the daily routine! lol (Also Carole got me straightened out so I can now create gnomes! (Coming soon..)

[Annie Tobin]

Karon, you have done your lessons proud ... a beautiful page my friend ... as is your Vulcan page, well done. ;)

[Corrie Kinkel]

I have all my holidaycards ready for posting tomorrow and was able to finally finish my snowman LO. I almost forgot I had him waiting. So I made something with a lot of separat elements. The garland with icicals was a freebie from Carole, just as the angels and the speechbubble. The background paper is from a christmas kit  by Marissa Lerin  at Pixelscrappers that I adapted somewhat. The photo under the mask is my own, it is the big tree on the marketplace where I live. This was just fun to create.

Ann it has been a joy to view your advent pages and this is no exception. Your work is such fun and gives me a chuckle over my morning coffee. Well done. ;D

[Annie Tobin]

Corrie a lovely Merry Christmas snowman page. I love the mask you used for the Christmas tree, delightful effect my friend. ;D

[Annie Tobin]

Karon, thank you for your lovely comments, they are much appreciated my friend. ;)

CHRISTMAS SONG CHALLENGE + ADVENT - DAY 14

 

The art is a Dutch Christmas card from Pinterest. The scraps are from Pixelscrappers and the glitter on the sides is a Picture Tube.

[Ann Seeber]

I have a Gnome! He's pretty cute, though I have trouble pronouncing his name. It's from a Scandinavian site I've been reading for the holidays. Hopefully my next attempt will be better. Meanwhile...here's Stekkjastaur: The Sheep-Cote Clod! (he has bad knees. ;) )

[Annie Tobin]

Yay! Good job Ann ... love his colours and that is a really lovely background paper ... well done. ;)

[Val]

That is beautiful.

I was trying to figure out how to do something with a gnome to give me an excuse to make one.  You did an awesome job.  I hope I can do something even half as nice!

[Raymond Easley1672511110]

I tried to combine some "tasks" we have used over the past few weeks. These are a few of my granddaughter's sketches that I have recently been sent. The "flower" background was done using a paintbrush and one of the installed brushes set for a large size. Please don't ask what the vertical green split thing is on the right side (I have no idea!).

 

 

[Annie Tobin]

Raymond, first off, Elize's drawings are really lovely ... some talent blooming there for sure. I am impressed with your background, turned out very nicely. And, the vertical green split things off to the side are cool elements that weave nicely through the red paper strips. It has all come together very nicely ... job well done my friend. ;)

[Sue Thomas]

I don't think I could have created a more simple, minimalistic ecard, which can be printed on 5x7 photo paper. As hard as I try, it just isn't in my nature to fill my pages with lots of elements. I used the photo to create the background paper, mask, seamless tiling, blur, flood fill with pattern, added two layers flood filled with colours from the photo, opacity. Rivet, one of Carole's snowflake charm tubes. Lace Xmas trees. I have several of them, which I've colourized, and renamed, and saved them as PSP files. So I can't remember where I got them from, same for the merry Christmas corner. These delightful little winter visitor birds, come to my feeders, They nest way up north, in conifer trees, hence the lace.

[Sue Thomas]

The Christmas masterclass was one of the best ever.  I've had fun creating  trees and gnomes. In this project I  added  trucks to the trees to make them more realistic.   Another gnome, and a  word tree.

[Sue Thomas]

I haven't been on here for  almost a week, and what a feast for the eyes, wonderful pages created.

[Annie Tobin]

Hello Scrapbook Campers.  Yesterday or the day before the suggested tutorial for the Creative Scrap tutorials was Rolled Edge.  It was an easy tut so I decided to put it to use as an element on a Merry Xmas page.  The paper I used was from Pixel Scrappers by Melo Vrijhof and I loved it from the moment I stumbled across it.  It is a simple page featuring the rolled edge and a left border of my own creation following a tut by Cassel.  The alpha I created myself using the font Oliver, Super Blade Pro plugin, a PSP bevel, and an element which is a part of my never ending collection.  I am falling in love with Super Blade Pro all over again!  Thanks for takin a peek.  ;D

[Raymond Easley1672511110]

Annie, thank you for your kind words. Your work is always to be admired!

 

Sue, your trees look so realistic. You are definitely an enthusiast, it shows.

[Annie Tobin]

Thanks Raymond, and you are very welcome my friend. ;D

[Ann Seeber]

Hi Guys! Here's Advent - Day 16 featuring the EU Robin which I've only read about, never having visited across the pond. ;) We're anticipating 18" of snow starting this afternoon into tomorrow and I'm reminded of the little poem: "The north winds doeth blow and we shall have snow and what shall poor Robin do then? He'll stay in the barn to keep himself warm and hide his head under his wing ... poor thing!"

 

The Christmas tree and background are  from a game that I decorated myself as is the wording for the robin. The bird is a drawing I found on Google. The snowman and pinecones are from my collection of Iceland kits.  The bird silhouettes are from a beach kit. The garland I made using two gradients, rose gold and brass and the bow is from my collection of ribbons.

 

I'm holding off on more gnomes until I get the .PDF documentation of the webinar. I work better from that than from the video and messing with the shapes tool is hard for me.

[Sue Thomas]

Annie, what a wonderful page you have created.  The rolled edge isn't a difficult to  do, yet it give a really  professional  look to the LO. A simple layout, which packs a punch with the  Greeting.  I love it.

 

Raymond, thank you ever so much for your kind words, as always they mean a great to me coming  from a fellow PSPer.  Have you  had a go at creating  them yet?  I found I couldn't stop at  creating  only one.  It's addictive!   :-)

 

 

[Cristina]

Karon, Ann, Corrie, Raymond, Sue, and Annie, it is a joy to come here and see all the creative work you all are doing. For sure, here is not short of inspiration.

[Cristina]

Lately, I haven't been inspired to create scrapbook layouts, but I had lots of fun with the gnomes, trees, and garland from December Masterclass. It was a good distraction to everything that has been happening for the last months and all the concerns we all have.

 

So, here is my gnome. I decided to create him mostly using the pen tool, as I am still not too comfortable working with vectors. I was inspired by some illustrations I saw on the internet.

 

Sue McGuire said on the FB Group that she had created the nose with the cutout effect instead of bevel, so I decided to do it with this friend.

 

I used Cassel's Metallic Rope-04 picture tube.
