Project 3. I know it is difficult to read the postcard at 600 dpi so I'm throwing in a small size copy of that element. The angel(s) came from Janet Kemp, The background was from a Tutorial Project, the striped paper was a modification of a Flolinette-PBS paper, the font was Blackletter 686 BT. The background for the bigger text is an original photo taken while we were steaming FAST through the Red Sea to get on station for the start of the Desert Storm campaign which I heavily modified, by changing hues, and mirroring a selection (small copy attached of original).7 points

Day 5 - Project 2 Sadly this dogwood tree is no longer there. It was on the lot next to mine and they tore that house down for a parking lot (shades of Joni Mitchell). 😢5 points

Template is from Cassel "Artsy" - The frame has been inner beveled. I used the Kaleidoscope treatment and then used Blur/Radial/Twirl on the photo in the background. This is my granddaughter-in-law Lucy Lu, mother of Magic and Raja in California. Her 35th birthday is coming up on the 30th so I'll be adding more to this for her birthday.4 points

It's not a fluke just because it wasn't planned. It's creativity on the fly. 🙂3 points

It certainly was a puzzling paperclip. When you get around to using yours in a layout, just look at mine, even though, to me they still don't look right. 😉3 points

Here is my Project 4 - Adventure Park - I downloaded the kit Carole offered: By the Stream so I chose a photo taken by my grandson Tyler-John on his trip to Bali, Indonesia in July. The title font is Harrington; the frame is from Jessica Dunn's Nana's Kitchen kit, the background paper and the stamp format from By the Stream. EDIT: @Corrie Kinkel I added a sand texture to the brown paper and found some baby turtle clipart to replace the original.3 points

For some reason, I am having difficulty posting, every time I go to the bottom of the page to reply to topic, I get the entire page come up, so I am replying to Carole's comment this time. For Day 5 Project 2 I have chosen to use a photograph I took years ago at a dam in Central Otago. I often take photos to create textures and I loved the cobwebs on this old lock. I decided to use a copy of the same photo, with a Sheilsoft script, a soft ultra tone, then altered this copy's hue, saturation, and lightness. I used Jessica Dunn's Spring Skies mini kit, altering the colours to suit. The green polka dot paper was quite bright and I felt it took over this image so I adjusted the green to a more muted grey/green. I also adjusted the white paper's hue, saturation, and lightness, not changing the white, and changing the flowers instead. The stitching is from Marisa Lerin from Digital Scrapbook, the key from Sheila Reid, also from Digital Scrapbook although I used the artistic effect chrome to brighten the key. I have been playing with the Beginners' Scrapbooking projects and had created something for this particular layout, and decided to do something different for the bootcamp.3 points

Project 2 We travelled to Paris and London this summer and this was one of the sites we visited (Royal Mews). The Royal Carriages were quite spectacular. Love to use these shortcuts, but might not remember them for long. It's lucky they are listed with the menu options. Made a few changes based on feedback from Cassel. Shifted the elements and changed to gold text. Thanks for the suggestions. PS Cassel - Regarding the Lace Spools from yesterday - No I have not made Lace, just make the spools so far. I used to Knit and Crochet, but now my time is mostly taken up by woodturning. Thanks3 points

As soon as I read this back and front challenge I thought of the sketch made with cass-PencilSketch script of a windmill. Because the sketch is on a beige paper I made a background paper of the same colors to let the sketch blend in with the background. On the actual photo of that mill I used Jessica Dunn's mask for the June 2024 photomask challenge on digitalscrapbook.com. The postage-stamp is made with my own script and was already in my stash. Because the layout needed something extra I used an inked edge from Rachel M Hailey, she has a couple of them in different colors. It is a simple layout but when I tried some embellishments it didn't work.2 points

Thank you, Michele, truth be told, I wanted to use a key but wasn't sure where to place it, then, it hit me, replace the o in Locked! Not planned, just a fluke, really.2 points

I'm glad there is a solution for this "puzzle"paperclip because I unexpectedly didn't had time today until now to give it a go.2 points

My grandson David sent me this photo of him and his girlfriend while they were in Thailand playing rugby. David educated me on the difference between Asian and African elephants. I had to download a photo of the Asian elephant from Canva. The cartoon elephant is also from Canva. The font is Asian Pacific from CF, and the texture is "elephant skin" from FF. The background and first paper are from CF and called "oriental reds." The second paper I made from a sample of Rachel's shirt. According to David, the elephants in the picture are rescued old elephants who are no longer able to work. The Thailand stamp was a free png downloaded a couple years ago. The picture frame pattern is from stripes created with cass script stripe 2.2 points

Good you persevered and as you learn to follow the logical steps it will get easier on other projects too!2 points

Mine too! I walked away twice, going back thinking that I would approach it and work on it in a way that would make it look realistic. 😆2 points

You've got my head spinning with those paper clips. I think both examples work, but the one on the left just looks better aesthetically.2 points

This paperclip has really made me think. Am I correct in saying that it can be used in one way only. I even got out a paperclip and a piece of paper. Lol2 points

Project 2 I didn't use a kit for my layout but made a background with different papers from my stash and a blendmode. The other papers, the flower stamp, the flower and the little label are all from different designers and come from my stash. The font for the title is Comic sans and the other font is Lucida calligraphy. The plant's Latin name is Plumbago, in Dutch Mannentrouw, but I couldn't find an English common name, so if anyone knows?2 points

Arrow paper clip from the recent masterclass. I have made several different ones. When I went to use these to attach several pieces of paper my mind went blank. I can't for the life me work out what goes behind to get the realistic effect. Surely there has to be 2 options. I don't have any problem with conventional paper clips or different shaped one. Any ideas!!!! I'm going to look very foolish if its a case of either erasing, or using the promote to selection tool on selected areas. But what selected areas I ask myself!!!!!2 points

I have used recently my favorite fractal generator Apophysis=APO in short word. Sure, I use APO editor first of all but PSP later /everything, believe me/. I don't write scripts for APO, I only can modify in APO editor look/pic of used script. This time butterfly-before modification in a white frame, the second butterfly is without a frame. Excuse me English mistakes, please:)2 points

We are all learning here, no matter how long we've been here. We learn not only from Carole but also from each other. It's fun, and the community is very supportive.2 points

Donna, it has happened many times to me. I post something here, and it doesn't take long to see that something isn't right. And if it's a Workshop and I don't catch the issue, Carole has eagle eyes, and she immediately spots it! 😄 I like it, so it helps me to improve my work.2 points

I said a couple of days ago, I was going to improve my nautical scatters picture tube and share it with everyone. Here is the results of that. My McAfee hiccuped when I double clicked the link below although it is OK. I suggest you copy the link and paste it into your browser address line to get the download. Place the PspTube file into the "documents/Corel PaintShop Pro/2022 (or your version)/Picture Tubes/" folder. The other file is just an image where I set the size at 30 and painted around the canvas (over a white background layer) as a sample of using the Tube. Noticed can't change the default "size" after you have exported the tube...I think the default is 100. The Images/paintbrush stamps were originally sized at 100. http://www.toroscope.com/shares/dhess-nauticalscatters.zip PS...This is assuming you are interested in a nautically themed picture tube to create some scatters. It's not exactly generic but good for anything that is boat or ship or ocean themed...or perhaps some other categories.2 points

I would say that like any paperclip, you have one "middle section" that can be either in the front or in the back. But also, like any regular paperclip, you can put a tiny segment to put in the front or in the back but it would not "hold" anything.1 point

Art sorry to hear this and good to see that you had the courage to finish his model boat. My husband has made some too but don't want to start on a new one because he is afraid that he never will finish it in the rest of his lifetime. By the way it is nice seeing you here again!1 point

LESSON 3 - NEW FUR KID ON THE BLOCK 😉 This is the photo I showed earlier of Brandy guarding the aquarium with the White Skirt Tetras. (I made a flair button using a template from Marisa Lerin and a photo of the tetras.) I used the kit Carole offered cpjess-Behold-Autumn and I incorporated some cat accessories from the Gina-Jones-Every-Day-is-Caturday kit. I reduced the opacity a bit on the background paper. The title font is Bauhaus 93, the Fur Baby banner is from Gina Jones. The scatters are from the Autumn kit.1 point

Haha... I can relate to this! I am looking for the proper template to display 6/7 photos and still cannot decide which way to go. Multiphotos template, Scrap in Grid Masterclass... the list is long. As I went through the folders to find one template I liked, I realized how many times I started documenting one trip and never finished.1 point

Week 37 Kings = Tall Tea Pots The background started out as the Striped Ribbon (2) tutorial in the latest lab. I added noise, and a gradient layer below and used a blend mode. still wasnt happy with it, so I duplicated the noisy striped paper and used 90 degree angle so it was horizontal and added the same blend mode as the previous. Then grouped the 3 layers, duplicated the group and merged that group. then I could add the blinds texture (it did look like much if added the texture on the layers that were not merged). In the end I was wanting it to resemble fabric. The fonts are Kings and Kingstone Roman from CF I think.1 point
