Male. Isn't it obvious? LOL

Here's an article in the Campus explaining how to use the Change to Target brush. It comes in very handy when trying to match elements/papers to a desired color scheme. https://scrapbookcampus.com/2020/09/changing-colors-in-paintshop-pro/

When I was in my twenties I used to go camping every year on Labor Day weekend with a large group of friends. You had to face the tent downhill or dig a moat because it always rained at least one day of the trip. Most of us bathed in the lake with Ivory soap (because it floats), but some of the fussier young women drove a mile or two down the road where they could shower and blow-dry their hair. As young as we were, a lot of partying was going on. In the early morning, I would go down to the lake and during the day I liked exploring the woods. I do have some lovely photos, but they're in my storage unit. I really need to get over there and get them.

Oh, well. It was a thought. Maybe I can find a brush that might work?

Here's a card I made for my cousins today. The template is from the Lab 06 Mod 04, the BG paper is from AnnieC, and the flowers are from Chantalia Design. I used the Change to Target brush on all the elements; it's a very useful tool. The fonts are StylePro and Arista 2.0 Light.

How about a raffia picture tube?

Papers and Photos: 10/10/80/10 The shadows don't look identical when sized down to 600. Isn't it weird how that works? Ribbon: 15/15/70/15 Button: 15/15/60/15 Since the button was on top of the paper and not hanging over the background, I felt it needed a smaller shadow with less blur. Scatter: 5/5/60/10 String: 20/20/70/20 The string seemed thicker than the ribbon, so I gave it a larger shadow and blur.

That's exactly right. I'll be doing the Labs at some point, but I only have the time for the tutorials right now.

It's like a kid in a candy store! I look through the previews when I'm looking for something specific because we don't always call things the same. When I'm simply teaching myself, I go through it alphabetically which I'm doing right now. I'm skipping the ones from the Labs because I want to do those in full.

Love it, @Daniel Hess!

Here's a birthday card I made today for my old boss from when I worked concert security. My goal was to create guitar picks to put my text on. I created a preset shape, added a pattern, and colorized each. After adding my text on each guitar pick, I used magic wand select on the outside of the letter, inverted the selection, and added an outer bevel on the pick level. Then I hid the text layer. It's not my favorite card, but it helped me practice some PSP skills that I don't often use, especially working with vectors to create the shape.

I've been going through the Creative Scrap Tutorials and trying to do some new ones (new for me). I just had so much fun with this one. Don't know if you can see it in the downsized image, but I used the fine leather effect for my belt.

You've been waiting all month for the right timing! lol

Wish I could join you on your patio for a cup. Those flowers are amazing.

I used a paper and a cluster by Jessica Dunn from DS/PS. Cassel's brad factory script came in handy so I could "fasten" the film strip. The other stuff was in my stash.
