Jeni, this looks like a great place to visit.

Oh, I get it. I guess I never read it correctly and that the question was about the portrait photos. 😬 I learned this from Carole, and there is a 2017 blog post titled "4-ways-to-hide-a-face-with-paintshop-pro/." Since then, I have been doing this with the family and my own photos when I post here. There are other ways of doing it, but I prefer pixelated.

Thank you, Jeni! It was really a special moment. 🙂

Thank you, Corrie! ----------------------------------------------------------------- So, I am not alone in struggling with the layouts... And I am in good company. 🙂

Thank you, Susan! There are a lot of Anna Aspnes's goodies included in the background. 😄

Thank you, Fiona! Do you mean the glow around the title? If so, it's the Outer Glow from the Layer Properties (Layer Styles on the Layer Palette). The default size is 43, and the opacity is 80. Here is a screenshot with the settings I used.

Thank you, Julie! I love it when I start a layout, and everything falls into place, but it doesn't always happen. 😄 But I love the process anyway.

Lesson 3

This time, instead of creating new layouts altogether, I decided to complete the Workshop that I started years ago and had never finished. I tweaked the first layouts a bit. The layouts are all about the visit to see the "Making Van Gogh" exhibition.

Another Halloween layout. I don't know if anybody else has experienced this, but many times, I start with the photo and get an idea of how it's going to be. And then, as it progresses, and I'm not too fond of this or that, I end up with different papers, how I showcase the photo, and so on. No wonder it takes so long to finish a layout. 😄 I created the Word Art inspired by one I saw on the internet.

Susan, it's good to break the rules occasionally, right? 😂

I did it, too, but I didn't have the time to install it. It was too good of a deal to let it pass. Thanks, Carole!

I don't know this Adamski Effect either, Julie, but I am already curious and want to learn about it and try it someday. 🙂 Your layout might not be like the others ( I still have to check them), but I like what you did very much!

I just picked this one to comment on, but all calendar layouts are beautiful, Susan! You put a lot of work into it, and it paid off. The dark ton of the pages just fit the photos perfectly.

Beautiful layout, Julie. The detail of the poppy flower and the red element over the soldier is very touching.

Wow, great work, Donna!

The cards look great, Susan! I am sure you're having lots of fun creating them. 🙂

What a beautiful photo, Julie! I can only imagine how the photographer waited at the right spot to get this shot. You created a lovely layout to showcase it. "Playing is fun even if the results are not stellar!" -- I agree. I also just want to have fun creating something, although it's no piece of Art. 🙂

Thank you, Julie!

I saw your comment only today, Ann. 😞 Lucky us, there's always someone here ready to help when we have questions or doubts. 🙂

Thank you, kasany!

I have finished another layout to practice Cassel‘s Lab12-Module 03 Tutorials. Glitter4 – Paper Bow – Metal Plate I added Metallic Element and Engraving effects on the plate.
