Template 3 extra Affinity Photo 2.6 and PSPx8 I tried and tried to work out how to export and maintain the aspect ratio, and couldn't find anything helpful, so I used PSP to resize. I found this ram in a paddock in Waipiata, he was wild and woolly, he had lived in the hills for years, so wouldn't have been shorn for a long time. The kit used is Winter Repose from Marisa Lerin. The font is Smith Family Script Bold from CreativeFabrica.

Jacques, I would download the others as well, you may not use them, but you could have a play, at least. Some scrapbookers use Designer rather than Photo. I admit I am using Photo and have yet to try the others. I'm like Susan, not enough time in the day, I probably need 48/7 instead of 24/7, or, as Susan said, to live to 150!

Congratulations, Lynda and Ralph. What a lovely journey through time in this page.

Hank, that is where Affinity comes in. Carole has some tutorials for using Affinity. Some of us have used Affinity for this Template workshop, and, you can find some tutorials there.

Template 7 Affinity 2.6 These two little sweethearts are a friend's grandchildren, Poppy and Ruby. Poppy was so happy to hear she was getting a new baby, she happily gave up her nursery and helped redecorate for her sister. Kit is Billie Irene's Collected Curiosities 2, and the fonts are Kirsten ITC and Scarletta Script. I think this is the last one for me. Thank you, Carole for the fabulous tutorials, templates, and comments. It has been amazing seeing everyone's wonderful ideas.

Template 6 diamond Affinity 2.6 This photograph was taken one evening in the hills overlooking my area. I have used Janet Kemp's Elegant Autumn kit and the fonts used are Mocha Cherry and Mocha Cherry Inline.

I love your cats, Ann, and black cats in particular. I hope Beauty finds a furever home so as not to upset your own three. My one and only black cat had charcoal stripes and only survived to six months; she was an angel.

Thank you, Ann, there is something special about coastal shores; the air is so refreshing.

Template 5 Diamond Affinity 2.6 A couple of years back, I stayed at a lovely cottage near the coast. The decor interested me, and I managed to snap a few photographs of items that appealed. Kit is Jessica Dunn's Coastal Spring papers with her Nantucket Feeling elements. The paper strips were colourised using colours from the striped paper. Fonts are Castella and Billie Olivia

Are you all eating worms out of the Tequila bottles? I don't see plates of food on those tables

Template 4 Diamond Back at Gethsemene Gardens, where we see the Ark, and some of the animals on the Ark. I wasn't sure how to deal with the brush in this one, and knew I would probably use it as a mask, and using the blend mode of Pin Light. The kit is Jessica Dunn's Autumn Bramble from Curio Pantry. Fonts are Believe in Yourself and Beauty Sabila Script

Template 7 Diamond Affinity 2.6 I used a mix of various pieces of art I own to create this one. The small A5 size paintings in here are mixed media, pen and ink, watercolour, graphite, pastels, coloured pencils, etc, so I thought to add some splashes, where the circles were, from Janet Kemp's Memories and Tradition Paint Kit behind the photographs, with Melo Vrijhof's Cosy Day Papers and small heart scatters from Esperanza Mixto. Fonts are Drive Winter and Florida Palm from CreativeFabrica.

Template 2 extra I used 2 photographs taken from the same place, taken for a panorama photograph. The Remarkables are, according to Wikipedia, named for the serrated peaks. I have used the Heartfelt Papers kit by Esperanza Mixto, and colourised the extra shapes.

FontXplorer is the font manager I used and loved for years. I tried searching for it and couldn't find it when I changed computers years ago. Hence now using NexusFont. I must check out Font Expert, thank you.

I have the script, although not sure I have ever used it.
