Day 9 - Project 4 I absolutely adore this photographer's work. If you're on Facebook, you should check out his page. He goes under 501 North Photography and has some amazing pictures of the Aurora Borealis. I decided to share some of his barn shots. I created an uncharacteristically (for me) muted layout so the pics could be the real stars. I used a bunch of supplies from the ALFLT Blog Train Jan 2021. The title font is Xpressive and the text font is Sugarstyle Millenial.7 points

Thank you for your comments, Carole. I was very unhappy with the scatter and font colors on the original. I created a new scatter using VectorPaint and VectorTube. The used shadows on each layer of the scatter before merging since I didn't like how they looked on the merged file. I created a coneflower tube from a coneflower downloaded from Canva. I also tried to fix how the pictures looked. All shadows have been saved on their own layer for future adjustment. The Butterflies font is from CF. The glitter in the scatter is from a brush downloaded from Deviant Art.6 points

the next lab 13 module calls for learning to do fringe papers. Not sure what I will do with it, but I thought that Olaf (from Frozen) wanted to experience summer. My daughter got me a little stuffed Olaf with a hula skirt (since he wanted to experience summer). I thought that maybe I could use the tut for fringe to make a hula skirt for him. So I made an Olaf. This is my Olaf waiting for his hula skirt. I made the eyes in a previous lab. the toothy grin is mine as are the square buttons. the arms and carrot nose are from Pixel Scrapper - Jessica Dunn.5 points

Hello everyone,🖐️ now the hot, humid summer is over in Germany and I can sit back at the PC and relax. It was really a stressful time for us health-wise. But now things should get going again. I'm currently working on two private birthday cards and am practicing an online AI generator. Here is my latest scrap of it. I'm slowly running out of private photos that I can show publicly. @ Carol I'm really unhappy with the PSP 2023, would it be possible to exchange the program for an earlier version at Corel? I really want to be able to use the filters I've collected. Or is Corel planning to do an update? You're connected to the company and maybe you know more about it?4 points

Day 7 - Project 3 The papers and flower are from a mini kit by Marjan De With that I obtained in the Nov 2018 Blog Train. I made the scatter using Cassel's Punch Confetti script. For the glitter, I took a maroon glitter paper from Marisa Lerin, added a layer on top with the foreground/background gradient using the maroon and green from the papers, and changed the blend mode to Hue. The title font is Romantic Crafty and the text font is Segoe Print.4 points

Although I have been using PaintShop pro since 2007 (PainshopProp Photo 11), this is the first time I use it to make "Scrapbooks". I have rather used Corel Painter to transform my photos into "paintings". I have learned many things that I will reuse.3 points

Very lovely and good you took the time to explore! I sadly live in a small and very regulated and country where you can't see such great barn structures. The most we might have are old sheds on a yard and they are not very pittoresk and the farmer won't be happy if you took a photo of it either.3 points

This layout is from the trip we did in August, the first stop. This city has many places to visit, but we only stayed there for two nights, so there are plenty of things to see if we ever go back.

This was my fourth attempt to finish this assignment. When I went to the file folder to find and add the next element, it would shut the program down. After the 3rd time, I ended up restarting the computer. Finally, it went pretty quickly/smoothly and I finished. If you can check out the frames on each of the photos, you can see that it is not a solid frame. Using the flood tool, I had to click each spot to get the white to attach, and as you can see, the white still did not fill in on all the spots. Not sure why this happened, but it was consistent thru all 3 prior attempts as well. But in the end, I liked the camo effect so didn't mind that it didn't work as it should have. My grandson will love that I did this assignment for him.3 points

Here is my Project 4. I used some pictures of Weaving tools that I turned this summer. I am not a weaver, but I belong to an organization that has Woodturners, Weavers/Spinners and Gourd Artists so we cross paths quite a bit. Most of the papers I used came from DigitalScrapbook.com (formerly Pixel Scrapper).3 points

Project 4. Background started out as an internet image for Flamingo Wallpaper you can purchase for your home (in what room would you put that LOL???) which I completely transformed to make a pattern for my paper. Butterflies were from ps_elif-sahin, watermelon heart from Janet Kemp, Barcode from Marisa Larin, the striped ribbon was modified from one got from Flolinette-PBS, the other I can't remember but it was modified and originally from digitalscrapbook.com. The dragonfly, I found on the internet.3 points

Mother Nature hasn't gotten the memo where I live also, down in the most southern part of California, along the Salton Sea. Our daytime temperatures are still around 117° but our nighttime temps are getting down to the mid 80's. We've been in the hundreds since April. I live in the very low desert at 238 feet below sea level so we expect hot temps but it would be really nice if it would start cooling down soon. I'm so looking forward to being able to finally opening my doors and windows to air out my house.2 points

@ Carole, I had a look at that shadow and luckily I have it on a separate layer, force of habit. The shadow really is there and not under a paper. In the layers palette it is right under the photo layer. No idea what happened, maybe it has something to do with my PSP acting strangely and suddenly shutting down. I didn't had that specific problem for some time now, hopefully it was a hiccup and not something structural again. I removed the shadow and did it again and now it is there, strange!2 points

It was another hot and humid weekend here. The AC went out, making it a bit more uncomfortable than usual. Having lived through long hurricane-related power outages in Miami, I learned to cope. The upside is that I had power and lots of fans. Fortunately, it was a faulty capacitor that was under warranty. When the repair guy explained what a capacitor does, I resisted telling him I knew what it did. After all, I've seen Back to the Future 1, 2, AND 3!2 points

Project #4 I continue to use my photos from California and to me it is amazing to see the wide variety of flowers there when I take a stroll through the neighborhood where my family lives. All the papers are from Rachel M Hailey; the butterflies are from the Meadow bundle by Jessica Dunn and the scatters from Marissa Lerin. The fonts are Impact and My Butterfly. No pinky shears for me, I like scallops more. I mirrored the layout from the lesson because my photos are more tilted to the right and this way is more pleasing to the eye, at least to mine. As always the most time goes to selecting the photos which is a pleasure!2 points

Day 6 I've used bees in the past, so this time I switched to butterflies. All of the butterfly photos were taken by me at a beautiful butterfly house. The single monarch is an extraction from a photo sent to me by my grandson. I made the background papers using FF and changing the colors for the papers. The stripes were made with cass stripe 2. I made the scatters using cass script scattered elements. The stars, flowers and butterflies were from my kits. The font is Cute Dots from CF.2 points

My daughter and Heidi have been BFF for over 30 years. They celebrated their 50th birthdays in Savannah, GA where Beth lived at the time. If you haven't heard of the Savannah Bananas baseball team, you should check out their hilarious videos on YouTube. They are so popular that you have to enter a raffle to get their tickets even if they are playing in Cleveland. I made the background using FF. The glitters are from ones that I made in the past using the cass glitter script. The stripes were made with cass stripes 2 script. The bananas and running shoes are from Canva. The saying is from Creative Fabrica. I converted the hearts to a vector using selection to path script and then my diamond tubes using VectorTube. The saying was selected and filled with my pink glitter pattern. The heart was a vector shape converted to a raster and filled with the pink glitter. I chose the colors based on Heidi's love of pink and of glitter (my kind of girl!). The photos are from Beth (I didn't get a good one of them wearing their banana costumes).2 points

Spring here was very wet and cold and the summer started much the same way, but august was fine and not too hot. September until now was warm, about 24 Celsius with the nights about 16 to 18. All in all very pleasant you only notice it is going darker in the evenings by the week. In a couple of days we will have the lights on at dinnertime. But the weather is now changing to rain and much cooler, about 15 C daytime and under 10 at night. We haven't much autumn colors yet, but a some trees drop their leaves because of the very wet conditions in spring. Today there was an article in the newspaper about the Dutch vineyards which we have since 10 to 15 years. Due to the climate change it has become considerately warmer and it is now possible to produce decent wines over here. But not this year! Because the wet spring the grapes are small and there are fewer of them too. For some growers it will cost too much to pick and produce wine with no profit left. One of them said in the interview that this year the birds will have a feast.1 point

What I learned. Not sure I can say I learned this during this session, but I was certainly reminded of it. The use of the Magic Wand to make the frame around the photos was a feature I was looking for in my notes not that long ago. Glad I got to see it again. Thanks1 point

That is a very beautiful close up. I love chrysanthemums, but my husband is allergic to them, so we can't have them in the house and preferably not on the patio either. If we get a bouquet where they are in, I have to remove them and rearrange my bouquet.1 point

Beautiful concept, Julie. I really love your design choices. That blue works very well. btw, my proofreader persona tells me there is no "t" in relics. 😉 (Thank goodness with digital work corrections are easy-peasy!)1 point

@Cassel: My photos have a resolution of 3000x4000 pixels. When I copy and paste them as a layer and adjust them to the project, they seem to lose "precision" and pixels appear. Is this normal?1 point

Very nice, Leslie. I do like the colors. If I may make a suggestion, and it just may be my opinion, but I'd put the larger photo in the center with the two smaller ones on either side to balance the layout. What do you think?1 point

Yes, and initially, the shop put the wrong date on it, but mama Ilana declared she was going back to get a correct one because it's a "keepsake!" 😄1 point
