I choose to do only one part of our trip to the UK, we started by going to Iceland first.  We spent 3 days there, was hard to just pick a few side trips we took.  The Golden Circle was awesome.  Day 2 of the Travel Tales was a challenge, not sure I got all my shadows correct.  I look forward to hearing about these things that could have been done to make this page better.  I worry about the page being to busy where the photos get lost.

I reworked Day 1 project and would like to know if this is any better.  Thank you for the suggestions.

Day One of Travel.  My first trip overseas, landing in Iceland then over to England, Irland, and Scotland.  This is going to be a fun look back on our trip.

I almost forgot to post my finished modules.

 

"A Day Being Retired" was our 1st trip out on our kayaks, Larry was supposed to be fishing but his pole broke 15 minutes into his fishing day.  So instead of fishing, we kayaked around Lake Sutherland.

 

"Resting" was an awesome thing to see, just lots, and lots of seagulls.  They just didn't care that we were walking by.

 

"Seafarers" was a retirement gift to Jeff, our neighbor across the alley from us.  He retired after 20 years in the Coast Guard.  We got to attend his ceremony on the deck of his ship, the Active.  It was a beautiful ceremony.

 

"Good Friends"  We have an annual 4th of July party, this was some of the people that attended our get together.  Unfortunately, there won't be a get together this year.  So sad...

Because I am the Historian at our Senior Center, I am going digital with our photo album.  One of my fellow board members asked me if these digital files could be put on our TV in the front lobby so everyone would be able to look at our new photo albums.  Of course, I said yes.  I took a look at what a 12x12 page would look like in the slide show, there was just to much empty space of each side.  I went to work finding a page size that would just drop into the slide show.  What I came up with, is a page size of 7200x4200, that fills up a frame and looks great.  So, the page here is that size, a little different than working on a 12x12 page but very doable.

Because Monday is Memorial Day, this is an ad that PA Senior Center put in our Memorial Day insert of our local paper.  When I was putting together this tribute I wanted the message to read across and the beginning of each sentence to reflect a message reading down.  After participating in the Bootcamp I thought it would look nice for our Historical Album to make a scrapbook page.  Thank you Cassel for making this possible.

Day 11 - May 22  I didn't have anything to write about for this pictured, so I added the tree with the blackbirds. I thought the prairie dogs were the ones with things to say.  The picture was taken in the Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota.

Day 10 - I'm posting two different backgrounds for our Valentine Lobby party pictures,  Trying to decide which one looks better.  I'm leaning towards the one with the lighter background.

First time using more than one picture, didn't know the secret to size all the pictures the same size, how easy is it?? I've been using PSP for a very long time, still, there are things to learn.

This is my second project, I'm having a great time.  So much faster than working nondigital.  After I finished the class I worked a page for our Senior Center Scrapbook, which went pretty good.

Good Afternoon,

 

This is my first time scrapbooking with PSP, I'm a very long time user of the program, I'm a retired photographer.  Today was my 1st attempt at scrapbooking because I'm the Historian for our cities Senior Center, we decided to go digital for our scrapbook.  So, I'm hoping that by going digital I will be able to work more efficiently and make our book look more professional.
