I have worked on two of my projects for the Text workshop taking into account some comments. I have really enjoyed this workshop and also want to say thank you to Carole. For my Night Sky image I added a few shadows as suggested and then having looked at 'A Beautiful Mess' Masterclass again, played around with effects to make the blank area look more interesting. There is so much spontaneous creativity demonstrated in that Cassel tutorial. For the Zuki project, I put a few of the Text Workshop techniques together as I knew I was due to make a greetings card for her. I had to fiddle a bit getting a larger font to fit into my Africa shape. Apologies for corny poem though. Thanks for all your ideas participants and thank you again Carole.

Day 6 I chose the Picture Tube called River Rocks and ran the script 3 times to give a piled up effect of the rocks. On one of the stroked layers I added a drop shadow 5:5:87:5 for slight effect. I don't know why but I am having trouble highlighting my text vector layer to be able to change attributes ie if I wanted to change the font.

Carole suggested putting some shadow on the lettering as the colouring is light. To do this according to the tutorial with the 'Character Shapes' method we need to use Layer Styles for the whole word. Here's one without shadow and one with. As usual Carole has the good ideas. Thank you.

Day 5 Love this effect. I have added it to another project but just need to fuzz their faces out before sharing. Font: Humnst777 Blk BT. Pink letters with Hatch Fine texture and green with Grain Long. In Layer Styles I added the bevel. I tried to use the repeat function when applying the texture to the letters but it didn't work. Just opened up a new canvas. Worth a try I guess.

Thank you Cristina, Anne and Carole. It was the pixelated blanking out of the portraits I wanted so I will have a go for a design I wish to post. Thanks again.

Day 3 Text wrap around. This will probably be included on my graduation card. I made up the awful poem as you can tell!

Like the subject very much and like your artwork. Can you tell me how you make the fuzzing out for the discreet portrait photos please?

Day 2 I am going ahead with the idea of using some of the ideas and template in this workshop for my niece's graduation card so this is her name. I ended up making a selection of each letter and then changed the colours as I had already converted to a raster at that stage. I added an inner bevel.

I am using PSP2021 (not PSP2023) and had the problem with the character width on some fonts so the effect didn't work. I then tried out Carole's 0.1 outline technique but couldn't get it to work. In the end was defeated but had a bit of fun with a character that did work.

Day 1 The first font I used (Swiss721 BlkCnBT Bold) didn't work too well as the fill part was too condensed so I expanded the fill but it then spilled out around the outline on some letters. I then tried in Arial Black ( a safe bet) but had to reduce the kerning a bit. I used X3 Stars for my Picture Tube. It helped laying a Guide Line at the top level where I wanted the stars to appear and then filling downwards. As far as a project goes to apply the effect, I am thinking of a greetings card for my niece in Africa who is about to graduate.
