Maybe I'll change my plans and do a Shadow box tutorial for the March lab module. Or maybe a Master class instead? Hum...

Do you want something that will be printed or something that you will keep digital? Is that something to show or for yourself only? For tangible goods, I know of what is called "Traveller's Notebooks", but I am not sure about digital versions. I am sure something can be done in PSP.

This month, I couldn't get away from Valentine's Day. After all, it is the theme of the month also. For that reason, I am suggesting a color palette around pink and peach tones. Of course, your project might include other colors (otherwise it would be monochrome). Just make sure these colors are featured and used. Although these colors might be mostly associated with Valentine's Day, you don't have to create something around that theme: it is just the palette, and you have to be creative. Can you create a project using these colors?

Most of North America experienced a cold snap last week. Did you? How is the weather in other parts of the world? Of course, the weather is a common topic as it always changes! Let's chat!

I guess rag dolls might be something I could do too with all that fabric! Now, I just have too many ideas. Which ones to do??

My guess is that it started with parallel lines, and simply used the Pick tool with the Perspective mode. But if you want, you can add that question to the Q&A thread for this coming Sunday ?

This page is from pictures taken during a "tree trekking" activity. The template used is from a series from Breanne Aullman called A mother is... (I am still looking for the whole set as it is very very old) -
Elements like netting are a bit of a challenge to shadow. As you tried, it can make the whole element too dark. If you were to hold a net onto a piece of paper, you will likely see SOME shadow. However, it will likely be THIN (so with a small offset). It will likely be VERY FAINT (low opacity) while the BLUR will make sure that the shadow won't overpower the netting. Considering those points, play with the settings and see which one would work well.

Check the recent article on AI-Powered resizing.

Something for my to-do list!

I might look into that. The problem is that the fabric might not lend itself to that type of item. I have things like stretchy spandex, corduroy, fleece, etc.

It is a new month and new projects. Show off what you are working on in February, be it a scrapbook page, a collage, a tutorial, or anything else you want. We are curious and want to see, learn, and get inspired. These threads are quickly becoming a fantastic source of inspiration, support, and friendship. Keep them coming! Remember to size down your image to about 600x600 pixels and save in jpg format before posting it. Here are a few guidelines for everyone: when you post a project, give as much information on your sources or techniques used. It will help others who are curious and would like to do the same. if someone uses something that you like on their page, ask where they got it. Sometimes, you can go get it too and it will be better quality than trying to extract it (as it would have been resized to post in the forum anyways). if it is something that they did from scratch, ask how they did it. It would be so helpful to everyone! if you like a photo and would like to “play with it”, ALWAYS ask permission. Sometimes, there are some limitations and the person is not allowed to let others use it. Don’t get them in trouble. Usually, people are happy to say yes (if they can) when you ask politely. And if you get permission, you might get a better-quality image than the resized image anyways.

In February, our monthly theme is VALENTINE'S DAY. This should be a fun theme to find words for. So, what words can you think we can associate with each letter of the alphabet? It could be a lovey nickname, a treat for Valentine's Day, and more. You are always so creative! Let's go!

In February, the theme is VALENTINE'S DAY. Do you have pictures or stories surrounding Valentine's Day? A special present you got? Share them in pictures or in words. Add stories to those photos but you know that you can also tell stories without photos! Let's go! Post your project in the gallery.

Do you have lots of leftover supplies from a hobby that you are trying to use up, creatively? How do you deal with all the extras you collected over time? Let's chat.

It would depend on the format they come in. I have a a couple of tutorials on using masks: How to use masks? Using transparent masks But we will go in further details during the Workshop.

Another workshop will soon start. Are you in? It will start on February 13th. This workshop is FREE for everyone, so spread the word. This workshop is meant to be for those with some experience with PaintShop Pro. If you are brand new to using the program, it will be a little more challenging, although we are here to help you if you still want to participate. Did you find this thread before the registration page? Here it is. (and yes, it is the same series of tutorials, but I'll try to find more supplies for the DIAMOND members)

@Betty Welcome to the Bootcamp. Looking forward to seeing your projects. You still have a couple of days to enter the draw but this thread will stay open even if you take longer to post your projects. @Leslie JostesFor the "disappearing text", it is a known oddity. It is explained in this article. I am glad you enjoyed this workshop. And that is the exact motivation for me to offer those: I also did the guessing game myself for years, so I know the struggles! @Lesley MapleGlad to hear that you didn't panic!!

Interestingly, it looks like the blurred photo was done intentionally!!

Could you try to add a solid blue layer on top of your background, and lower the opacity? That would still be blue, but it will create a separation between the background and the decorative elements.

Just a fun layout using the journaling strips script. -

Using banana boxes, my son filled them with snow to make a shed out of ice blocks. It didn't work out the way he wanted, but it kept him busy for a while! -

One of the very few times I let the kids play with paint, was OUTSIDE. They ended up so dirty that we needed the pool to wash them. -

Would be fun to do all those things!
