Hello Campus Friends.  I worked on this one today because I found this lovely photo of Tawny Frogmouths.  They are not owls being more closely related to the nightjar family.  They are native to Australia and Tasmania and are the masters of camouflage.  They are amazing birds that mate for life and can grieve for up to two years if they lose their mate.  There were 4 of them on the branch but I wanted to use this layout so I cut one out.  We have quite a few residing around this area of town.  The scrap kit is by Gina Jones from Pixel Scrappers, the layout is one of Jodi Watson's from DigitalDesignsByJodi and the title font is Batik Deco.  The most fun I had with this project was putting the clusters together ... lots of playing around with layers and shadows!  Thanks for takin a peek!  ;D

Jacques, Leslie and Mary ... I am still enjoying perusing your posts of a morning ... a treat with my morning cup of coffee. Well done boot campers! ;)

Thanks very much Clarine, greatly appreciated. I am very pleased that you are enjoying bootcamp even if it is a little frustrating for you now and then ... we have all been there. I hope you enjoy baby day and who wouldn't with such a gorgeous little man and he sure looks a healthy one to boot. My grandmother always used to say that the mottling of the skin was a sign of very good health in a baby ... probably just one of those old folk lores but they were pretty wise all the same, ;D

Thanks dear Ann, very much appreciated my friend. I hear what you are saying about the circle tag, which I did add after I had reduced the size of the overall page and then I had to fiddle endlessly with the shadow, lol! The tag says ... a beautiful eucalypt endemic to south-west of Western Australia. Sometimes I get determined to use a particular element ... a bit of a stubborn trait I'm afraid. I should have just used Arial font instead of trying to be so fancy ... duh! You should have seen what it looked like on the 3600x3600 ... a pinhead no less, lol! As Cassel has pointed out to us endlessly sizing down is fine but increasing can be disastrous! We are all learning and even those of us who have been psping for many, many years can/and do make rookie mistakes ... and that was one of them, lol!

Your work is coming ahead in leaps and bounds dear Ann and you bring a sense of humour to everything you do ... if not in the actual page then in your commentary ... I love that. Hugs......Annie T ;D

Lynda ... I can assure you the rest of the world is breathing a huge sigh of relief, lol! There was always an air of uncertainty while Donald was around. But, for the last 4 years, I have been greatly entertained by Donny boy's antics and will surely miss that, ROTFL! For now though, I am counting America's blessings and on top of the list are Joe and Kamela. Well done my friend and all the very best. <3

Minka, your play is very pleasing and informative. Thank you ... I love how we learn from each other as well as from Cassell in this campus ... we are very lucky. ;)

Ha ha Michelle, I would never have known ... and, yes we are always our own worst critics. Hugs ... Annie T

This one is for project Busy Bees.  These are the beautiful and unusual flowers of the Western Australia 'Fruitful Mottlecah'.  Thanks for takin a peek my friends.  :)

Yay Lynda, so happy about all of this! Now let there be peace! Love your tribute to this wonderful moment. :D

Ah, a delightful layout Minka and what a beautiful little fella Henri is. You have showcased him beautifully my friend, well done. ;D

Wow, this is a really cool page Cristina. Love the template my friend ... allows you to fit in so much without it looking cluttered. Very cleverly done and a pleasure to view. Hugs......Annie T

So sorry to hear that Myriam. I love working with plugins. Do you have an older version of PSP still installed? It's a pain for sure but worth the fiddling if you have a particular plugin you want to use on your project. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for ya! Hugs......Annie T

Ann I said it before and I'll say it again ... your progress is astounding! Love you pages my friend and this one is a real cutie. You Go Girl! ;D

Love them Michele. You shouldn't have mentioned the boo boo cos I have been searching and searching and can't see it ... you got me, lol! Love them all ... my favourite - Sunday Stripes, don't know why, just is! ;D

Hello Bootcampers.  This is another for the Friendship project.  These photos of single beautiful blooms each mean something in a friendship.  The scrapkit was an Autumn collab from CDO.  The font used for the title is Sildetas Black.  Thanks for takin a peek.  ;)

Ann, Elaine, Jennifer, Mary, Julia, Annie, and Jacques ... terrific pages my friends ... you are all forging ahead, CONGRATULATIONS! :)

Hi Myriam. All of those filters work for me in PSP 2021 32bit. None of them will work in the 64bit. Some filters can be loaded into Filters Unlimited but a few will not. I always have 2 versions of PSP running ... currently 2021 and X7. What won't work in 2021 will nearly always work in X7 ... just a matter of saving from 2021 and then opening in X7. All of the filters you mentioned are wonderful and I play with them a lot. I especially love Transparency as I create a lot of page overlays using that filter. I will be keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you. ;D

Hello Bootcampers.  This is my page for the Friendship project but I turned it into a Gothic theme instead.  Thanks for takin a peek!  ;D

A beautiful job Clarine, well done and congratulations, you deserve and A+ for the effort and it paid off!

OMGosh Lynn! I love this page, simple and so effective and what a tie up between the title and the photo of the lizard and grasshopper. Now that grasshopper is indeed very adventurous, lol! Well done. :)

Job very well done Val. Those flames are hungrily licking at your sons heels! ;D

Sue the photography is amazing ... as usual ... and the pages are a delight ... my favourite, that gorgeous little fluff ball chickadee. Love your work my friend. <3

Yay Raymond! Great job my friend, I love it. ;D

Nice work Lynda ... lovely photos, well done. :)

Connie, lovely results with both. Keep it up and you will be a Superfan before you know it! <3
