I thought the members of my gaming group were going to hate this, but I couldn't have been more wrong. I never know with them; that's one reason I'm always trying different styles. Usually, it just takes on a life of its own every day. I took the original fashion illustration by Sunny Gu and there were lots of selections, borders, duplicating, and resizing. I was very happy with the flower pattern I managed to extract from the original; I'm not usually that lucky. Used a simple font called Coverface SE as everything else was so busy.

 

Any constructive criticism is appreciated.

Sue, fabulous cards. And I agree with you; there are too many wonderful projects here to mention each. I'm just very impressed with everyone, especially our new members.

Thanks so much for all the wonderful feedback. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it; my confidence can always use a boost.

 

The "boo-boo" was that I left one of the layers hidden on the second row of text. I have a habit of keeping all my layers until I'm sure I've gotten the effect I'm looking for. With all the hiding and unhiding, I guess I missed it. Lucky for me, you can't tell unless you look carefully at a large version. We are our own worst critics, aren't we?

 

 

U = Unexpected ... you never know what will happen or who you'll see.

Some pics I made the last few days for my gaming group. For newer members who don't know me, the game picks a different theme every day.

 

Photo Freeze: The girl is a character from the game; the photographer is clipart from PinClipart. I combined two different background papers by Jessica D from Pixel Scrapper. Finally, I used Cassel's Winter Wonderland master class to create snow and the ice text (I made a little boo-boo on the second line, but it was too late to fix it.) The font is Bauhaus 93 as used in the class.

 

Sunday Stripes: Fonts used: Tall Stripes and Rasty Lop. The original pic is by one of my favorite illustrators: Malka Favre

 

Sky Blue Shades: Found the hairstyles on Google. I used the Antique Mosaic effect on the background. Font is Billy Signature.

 

Hope you enjoy them.

I know I haven't been commenting or sharing much lately, but I check in almost daily. I always get my smiles. :)

This was a page I made for my gaming group recently; the game gives us a different theme every day. Created using KakleiDesigns contribution to January's A Love For Layouts Hope For the Future Blog Train. The font I used is called Ink Free. The pic is something I found on Pinterest. I love templates when I don't have a lot of time or when I have no ideas of my own.

R = Refreshments

P = Photos

You are all just blowing my mind! Great work, everyone.

I made this a long time ago using a template from Cassel (it might have been one of the labs). It's wasn't technically a reunion as we got together for my aunt's birthday. However, many of us hadn't seen each other for years so I'm calling it a reunion. :)

Beautifully done, Annie, my friend.

I = I can't believe it's you!

Sue, as usual I love, love, love your birds.

 

Lynda, I haven't had a chance to watch the tutorial yet, but the examples you posted are great.

F = Friends

C = Charcoal for the eyes and mouth

Such wonderful work, everyone. Happy Holidays to all. <3

Y = Yellow snow ... who let the dog out?

2, 3, 7, & 8 took a few seconds, but they ultimately worked.

 

9 & 10...nuttin', honey

M = Mittens (Don't laugh at me; some snowmen have arms. lol)

Thanks so much, Karon.

7 & 8 don't do anything for me.

Numbers 1, 4, 5, & 6 worked for me. I use Win 10 and Chrome. If you need any more info, let me know.

Great papers, Lynda. I really have to get back to the labs.

Corrie, I'm with Annie. I want that cupcake! Pixelscrapper is a wonderful resource. I just downloaded some stuff from there today.
