Quick Page Day8 Quick Page from Digital Scrapbook (Marisa Lerin - Tunisia Quick Page 01). Photo is mine, very old...actually comes from a negative that is too old to reprint now. I scanned a smaller print (the one hanging up is 17x22 and would not fit the tiny old scanner I have) version I have and it lost all detail in the shadows. I chose this photo after I was looking for a Quick Page and saw right away, the color was perfect for that photo. This the quickest Quick Page I've done to date. Fonts: Resnick and Reneo (Creative Fabrica). Thank you Carol, for a wonderful workshop. I have enjoyed all the variety of layouts everyone produced. The active forum was fun and I looked forward to checking in to see the new pages and reading the comments.9 points

QP Extra Lesson 7 I didnt change anything on the page. Photos of crazy sunsets taken from the windows (front or back) of my house in Chilliwack (British Columbia). Being in the Fraser Valley, surrounded by mountains it was a treat to have days that there was a sunset. Normally we'd have grey sky days. Where I live now, there is less rain and sunsets almost everynight. Fonts: Magista Brush and Maxim from Creative Fabrica.9 points

Here is my QP-Day 8. I looked at the QP Kits at Digital Scrapbooking and selected one called Love Birds from Gina Jones. Added other graphics from Creative Fabrica and my stash. The Font is Fadilla and I applied an Inner Bevel and drop shadows. This was such a fun-filled workshop and I always learn something new.9 points

Got there eventually and decided to keep to the same colourful theme of street art. I have replicated some of their artwork and used the 'Art Group' Picture Tube for extra decoration. It has been a fun workshop and has been good for practicing PSP with basic templates as well as good for the creativity. Thank you Carole and thank everyone in the forum for their ideas and comments. Now back to training for my hike!8 points

QP-6 EXTRA - FEEDING GIRAFFES. My visiting daughter, Debbie and her sister, Laurey, plus Laurey's daugher, Jackie, the zookeeper, went on a drive-through safari on Friday. It was at Animal Adventures, The Preserve, near Binghamton, NY. The font is Corlita Serif. The photo was taken by Laurey on her Galaxy mobile. (It takes superior photos!)6 points

I had to go way back to find 10 pictures. My grandsons in the photos are now 21 and 28, but we had a really great time at the Cleveland Zoo. The font is Broadway display. The additional animals are tubes except for the baboon which was also taken that day. The butterflies are tubes from my own butterfly photos.4 points

QP-7 - Our drive-thru safari. This layout was good for all the animals that were around and almost inside our car! The font is Brush Script and the ostrich head came from PNGALL. I scanned a flyer from The Preserve for the details and map on top. I will also post this in Facebook and in the comments post the little, very funny video that Jackie did from the front seat to the back and you'll see what I mean about the animals almost "in" the car. ?3 points

And now here is QP 7. Hard to fit those heads in the spaces. I had to take out part of the flower and clip in order to fit in Emma's head. All were taken from the same photograph. We were in Garibaldi's and the picture behind which covers all of the top layer is one that fascinates me at Garibaldi's - it was behind us in the group picture - it is a metallic take on the Memphis scene taken from across the Mississippi in Arkansas.3 points

Here is the promised layout of the unboxing of my album with the photos from my recent trip. It is just a simple page with a background of old letters but a bit reduced in opacity. The book arrived last Saturday and I took some photos when it was laying on our dinner table. The font is School and College outline, fitting for this album, hence some American embellishments. The sticker at the bottom is by Carole, a freebie long ago. Now I first have to clean my workspace, even a digital one becomes messy, at least mine if I'm working on a Workshop and doing other things besides that as well. I have to organize all the photos from my trip and name all the flowers in the photos too. I think the rest of this week will go into that! So don't expect much activity from me; at least this week's challenge about a layout with a story is not a favorite of mine! That is another one I'll skip.?3 points

Getting started on catching up. I've been traveling around with family since Thursday so I'm WAY behind! This is QP- 5 - featuring new gg Jonah James on the day he came home from the hospital. The font is Viner Hand for the title. The label on the right was from Carole before she released her new script.3 points

Up to the first template of Lesson6 and have chosen a recent activity to advertise. It's a sponsored charity walk.. I would rather have had a different badge to 'little love' but kept it in situ because it has such good balance on the page. I like what Anja has done with replacing it on her design though. I merged my portrait photo with a scenery shot from one of our walks and have included a little logo that I have designed for our 'Green Panthers' team for the hike. Of course designed using PSP. I adjusted the Brightness of the background. A problem I had was when I resized the image to make the smaller jpg, it wiped out the body text. In the end I 'merged visible' and then resized. It seemed to work.3 points

I wanted to have a go at this. I decided to go with the flow and use purple! Images all from online and only papers I made with some torn edges. Font is Bombshell Pro. I'm not that big a Coco Chanel fan, but I do adore some of the fragrances and have a few in my collection. I just couldn't think of another subject for the layout.3 points

What a happy looking Lucy. If ever a dog could laugh allowed, she would be it. I love Van Gogh's work, esp Starry Night. I couldnt bring up the song in my head so I looked it up. It's really nice.2 points

Ann answered this below. Most people would know it when making pottery/ceramics. But there is different types of kilns. Mine was for glass, fusing pieces (melting or partially melting) together. Because of the themal shock that can happen with glass (think when you take a hot glass out of the dishwasher and put cold water in it and it thermally shocks and breaks), kiln ramp up in temperature by certain amount of degrees per hour, usually stays at the top temp for a period, then needs to ramp down in temperature quite slowly so it doesnt cool too fast(releieving internal stress - also called healing. the bigger the pieces the longer the time it takes. Here are my two kilns. One I used for glass fusing and the little blue one was a table top one used for glass beadmaking (called Lampwork, using not a kiln to melt glass, but a oxygen/propane torch). There are many kinds and shapes of kilns. Glass blowers have huge ones like in Ann's photo and they will them ovens.2 points

Quick Page Lesson 7 This is 20 years ago! How did that happen? It only feels like yesterday I was getting up at 3am in the days before a show to re-load the kiln. This is the years I set down my camera and got a point and shoot digital camera. Ugh, it was awful. so much lag time between depressing the shutter button and it actually taking a picture...this wasnt a cheap camera either. fonts: Madelyn calligraphy, Showcard Gothic, Magic Hopes (Creative Fabrica) Photos: mine2 points

Here is my QP-Day 7 I picked some pretty stones from Pixabay to fill all the frames at once. Font is Rockwell Extra Bold and the decorative leaf below is from Salmon Queen. Added Inner Bevel and drop shadow to both. Thank you Carole and everyone here for a fun-filled workshop. You have all inspired me with your beautiful pages. I will continue to work on the extra and Non-Scrap pages.2 points

For our 55th anniversary, we traveled to Windsor, Ontario. I took this photo of Detroit from our hotel room window. I changed the hue to better match the photo and changed the white frame to also match. The frame was beveled. Since there was still a little white showing, I added a heart that I created using a cass script offset cutout. The font is itsadzokeS02, an olf font.2 points

Quick Page Extra Lesson 6 I'm starting Lesson 6 with the extra. I love the layout of this quick page (I mean the QP as itself). For such a small area for the photos you eye is really drawn to that spot. I dont deny it, this is a challenge for my shooting style where it's hard to get photos that fit into a square. It's a good challenge for me. I dont have a great lens for moons, they are tiny in my images so i have plenty of space for getting that square layout. I took some creative liberties with the backgrounds going from the darkest blue of the full moon to the lightest blue in the less than full moon the lightest one is. Three of the moons were actually shot in the day...I call them Day Moons. The full moon was shot at night. I had to extract it and put it on another moons background (with permission of the "other" moon of course). i like using the selection to put the quotes in. I changed the colors using the Hue Map, it took several times going back to it. Photos: mine Fonts: Gill Sans Ultra Bold and Gill Sans Ultra Bold Condensed (windows)2 points

Still on Lesson 5 with some catching up to do on the next two days. I am thinking of using the extra pages templates from Day5 for a wedding card for my neighbours who are about to be married. Fonts: M&J monogram = Yash Monogram, Maria & John = The Billion, Date = Evelyne. Rose photo my own with Brightness and contrast adjustments. The original 'DATE' text I removed using the clone tool from the background. In reality I suppose the text should have been creased like the paper behind it. Can I use artistic licence here boss?1 point

This is a card for a friend who has to have a complicated operation next week. It is not her first and she always says she hates all those very colorful or "funny" well wishing cards. So I made her a purple one by changing the colors of the card into something more monotone based on the purple of the flower. I hope this is more to her taste! It says that we are thinking of her.1 point

Someday, I will have to remind myself that not every empty space needs to be filled. The edible arrangement photo was taken after I received it from my lovely daughter, Beth. Pineapples are from an AI program, and the balloons are from my build a kit. I changed the hue because I love purple. The font is an olf called Mrs Beasley. The glitter paper background is from one that I made some time ago.1 point

Quick Page Lesson 5 I used the page as is. Added text. Saya is an energetic playful and snuggly girl. But she always looks cranky in pictures. I had put the blinds down to see the computer screen and she kept trying to go behind them so I pulle out over the ledge and she has been using it as her sunning/sleeping spot. Maybe in the winter I'll be able to pull the blinds up again. Font: The Wild Chaos Stamped (Creative Fabrica) Photos: mine, taken a week ago.1 point

Here is my QP Workshop- Day5 It took me a while to come up with a theme for day 5. How about a Tea party, I thought for Cats. So all I had to do was to find the graphics and font to start with. After some digging, I found them at Creative Fabrica. The font is Paw Cad (that is the way CF spells it). I used Inner Bevel and drop shadow on the font and drop shadows on kitten in cup and teabag.Then I used Carole's custom confetti script with 2 of the teabags and sprinkled those on the bottom of the page.1 point

I love dandelions even though there are none in my grass. My flower bed had some nice big ones that I managed to photograph before the landscaper put weed killer on them. I extracted the fluffy dandelion and added it to my dandelion picture with some extra leaves that were also extracted. The seeds were created using Particle Shop; the sky background is from a desert sky sent by my grandson. The mossy boards are from a photo sent to me by my daughter. Font is Anabel 1 grunge.1 point

OK, Sue. I added shadows. Since I had merged the papers and frames around the picture, I chiseled the group and then shadowed it. Also decided to do a flip on the ribbon and had separated the shadow for it. Also, decided that it needed something more - just too stark as it was, so I added Cass scattered petals.1 point

I have several projects on the go, this being one of them. Although these are advertised as a monogram, it's not a font. They are very large png files. The width is to wide for my liking, had they have been a font (Vector), editing to my liking would have been ever so much easier, whilst retaining the sharpness of them. Anyway, I chose one and used it in a label I created. (Overlay blend mode). I also opted to use a slightly different approach to framing the 2 photos. The butterfly strip was created using 3 butterfly png files.1 point
