cindy harris Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Hello All, Finally my internet is back up, were having storms since yesterday nothing new at all for this time of year. Here is my Day 5, I used a picture my grandson took of the new baby, There was 2 that hatched they were put under this Chicken and turns out shes a Great Mom, she hatched them and feeds and cares for them. One had a problems and did not make it. But this one, is fat and sassy, and guess what He speaks Chicken! My daughter made the duck a pond, its loved and cared for. Thank You Pixel for the free Scrapbook Kit.
Cristina Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 So many new creative and fun layouts. Great work, everyone! I couldn't do anything for a couple of days, so only today I managed to finish projects #2 and 3... Now onto project #4. No matter how many times I participated, it is always fun to create layouts for this challenge.
Annie Tobin Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Cindy this is sooo cute, I love it. What a plucky little hen she is and I'm thrilled that one of the ducks survived, Great work my friend. :)
Annie Tobin Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Oooh! I love them both dear Cristina. Terrific blending with colours my friend ... each page works! Made me very hungry though, I think I may need to have a snack! ;D
Joe Latchaw Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Project 4. I enjoyed this project and learned a coulpe PSP tricks. I especially like the erase tool trick, which I utilised with more than just diamond cuts. Flora pics are some of the plants around the house. The churches are some that I photographed on some of my journeys. All of the sun pictures are taken from various spots around the area that I live.
Mary Solaas Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Wow, Joe. Love your 3 layouts, but my favorite is Nature's Colors, as I love the sky and beautiful sunsets and sunrises, but also clear blue skies and also fluffy clouds. Storm clouds are awesome, though.
Mary Solaas Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Cindy, love your duck/chicken. Neat story to go with the layout. Cristina, you're making me hungry. Love the colors. Annie, always like your colorful Australian birds. Bad Hair Day really intrigues me with, not only the bird, but the colors you used in your layout.
Cassel Posted May 18, 2021 Author Posted May 18, 2021 Annie, such beautiful birds. You are really showcasing them well. Joe, it is interesting to know that so many creatures can end up on that course, at the same time. It should be renamed a petting course (kind of!). Be careful with that edge trick: it can get addictive very quickly. I am glad you learned that trick and you can use it in different ways. It can turn into very creative results. Cindy, welcome back. You are doing so much better with the shadows in this Chicken layout! Cristina, you are making me hungry with those pictures (even though I am a very picky eater!) That pasta heart is quite interesting!
cindy harris Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Hello Wonderful People, Well the duck is doing good, it really does speak chicken. Momma dirt baths, baby duck dirt baths. Momma calls it to eat a worm she found, baby runs to mama and eats it. Cutest thing, ya'all. Thank you Pixel for the kit, Thank You Cassel, thank you all here. Its so fun you Artists are so nice, Its pouring rain out and I keep falling asleep, I love the sound of the rain. Had to remove to many tubes, they are just so fun to stamp on! Hugs All thank you All Espically our Cassel. P.s. Love the Love Pages with your Grandson so cool!
Ann Seeber Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Cindy: That duckling is so cute. Your colors work well with the blue sky and puffy cloud background. Nicely done, my friend. Joe: Of the 3, I like the Florida Flora. All 3 are very well done and pleasing but that one is my favorite. Christina: Your food designs are awesome! Of course they make me head to the kitchen, especially that Berry Pavlova.
Cristina Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 First, thank you so much, Annie, Mary, Carole, and Ann, for your comments. They are much appreciated. <3... I make this dessert once a year, usually in July or August, when the berries are fresher and taste better... I had the first time at my sister-in-law's, and since then, it became a tradition at home. : ) I was in a kind of a rush yesterday, so I didn't give the proper credits to the designers, who so generously offer the freebies. Project#2: Papers from PS2020Sep- A Beautiful Mess-Artsy Papers" -- Alpha from Cassel-Alpha Maker Sample (Alpha-Maker script) -- Border-Stitches4 from KAagard... Some of the papers are not recognizable because I played with the blend mode. Project#3: Papers from Oklahoma Dawn PS2018Nov "I dig it" --- Glitter from Cassel.
Cristina Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Carole, I created the pasta heart inspired by an illustration I saw online. I downloaded different pasta shapes, created a picture tube, and then arranged the shapes inside a heart outline. Below the illustration.
Cristina Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Ann, Annie, Frans, Torsten, Joe, Cindy, lovely work, photos, and colors. Great job! Annie, I am a big fan of this fellow who is having a bad hair day. : D
Ann Seeber Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Annie: Do those Myna birds talk? Someone had one here that did. Bootcamp: Just in time for Cassel's Busy Bees class my daughter in Mendocino, California, participated in their annual Bee Bold Mendocino festival. She's in the bottom photo on the far left with her drumming group. She made the mistake of posting all this on Facebook so of course I helped myself to their images. ;-) I created the striped paper from a selection from the small purple Bee Bold Alliance logo on the right. The title fonts are Aviation Cocktail Aged and Broadway.
Joe Latchaw Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 I have fun with this adventure. I've used PSP for awhile now, but mainly photo retouching and manipulation. Last Christmas I used grandkids photos and made into jigsaw puzzles. I also use for creating seamless textures for online gaming. The drag and drop coping of layers and the "Shift Erase" are new to me. Also, I am starting to use the keyboard shortcuts more on these projects than I usually do. One thing I don't quite see, and please don't misunderstand me, is that while I know the how, I don't know the why. Physical scrapbooking, to me is about the sentiment and the physical sense of someone made this with their hands just for me. What do you do with the digital scrapbook pages? DO you create eBooks to pass on, or just store the digital creations and pass them on singularly. I'm always looking to expand my breadth and depth of knowledge and have enjoyed working these projects but other than maybe using them in a slide show for graduation or wedding I don't se myself using a digital scrapbook. Again, no disrespect, just curious.
Annie Tobin Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Wow Joe! All 3 are beautifully coloured projects. A joy to peruse my friend. ;)
Annie Tobin Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Ann, I do believe that if taught early enough mynah birds can talk. I have never heard them but it is apparently the case. Very nice page you created Ann ... love those colours, they sure compliment one another.
Annie Tobin Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Cindy, I love this page. You had me fooled with the O.C.D. ... but I finally figured it out, very clever Hon. You are really starting to get the hang of it. You Go Girl! ;D
Annie Tobin Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Busy Bees project complete. Papers are my own except for the plaid which is out of Gina Jones' kit Everyday is Caturday ... which I have titled my page. The scatter I made following Cassel's tut and using elements from Gina's kit. Thanks for takin a peek. ;D
Cristina Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Annie, this is sooo cute! Love it...Great work, my friend!
Ann Seeber Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 The final design for the May Bootcamp. Cassel's is titled Concentration but mine is The House Wren. I was delighted when the Audubon Society released all of JJ Audubon's illustration plates to the public for general use. I didn't download all but I got the ones I am familiar with.
Susanne Lietz Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Day 3 Due to the minimized size the Scrap is a little diffuse. 4 having fun in the sun are my 3 dachshunde and me :)
Joe Latchaw Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Project 5....Everything but the hat was created by myself...papers, frame, star. The photo is from a prior trip to monument valley.
Susan Ewart Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Hi, Susan here. First post for me. I'm a newbie to scrapbooking of any kind and working with PSP (even though I've had it since 2019!). What beautiful and inspiring pages I see on this forum. Thankyou Cassel for your words (Edit, Copy, Close, Edit, Paste as New Layer) they got me through this. I found myself saying the words as I did the action. It's the words of you speaking the instructions that I hear when I'm trying to remember what to do. Great teaching style. here's my first go; from Day 3. I picked this because it went from a sunny 26 celsius (4 days ago) to 2 celsius snowing heavy two days ago!
