Hi, I've had some false starts and a disaster but I persevered and got the third part of Lab 5 11. I have also added a signature to the bottom right of this offering. I made this one in 2018, an updated version of one I created in 2014.

 

Did you know you can use a signature as a watermark, just enlarge the signature place it across your image and adjust the opacity so you can see your image reasonably well under the signature; theoretically no one should be able to pass off your work as there own

Hi, Thank you for the kind comments on my work. So here is another section of Lab 5 11; I put the rust alpha to wok on this one and the screws picture tube both from Cassel.

 

 

Hi,

 

have restarted the Labs, Element one of Lab 5 11. Yes I know i'm so far behind everyone else and my efforts aren't the best but I think I see an improvement.

Hi Just had a few days away in North Wales just to chill before the next round of chemo and just snapped a couple of photos of the dogs, tided them up in PSP then ran 2 through the Picture to Painting effect and followed by putting the photos into Painter Essentials 7 to paint as oil paintings and Just called it dog days

Hi, you'll find all sorts of things on this site, how to make your own custom papers etc.

Hi, I watched with interest to master class Fantasy 2. Not a believer in such things I got a real shock and only just managed to snap a photo in the nick of time.

She'll be missed on the campus by very many; RIP Annie.

 

 

Hi Corrie, Last time I moved was 2003, when I moved this time I still had 2 boxes unopened from 2003, do not intend to have that again they are all being opened and dealt with.

Thanks Michele, anyone need a load of packing boxes

Hi all, I'm back at last the house move took longer than planed plus we had to wait 5 weeks just to get the phone and internet working. We still nowhere near sorted yet with unopened boxes in every room except the bedroom. This activity is one more thing off my bucket list

Hi,

 

I wouldn't mind a Master Class on: -

 

photo manipulations

fantasy scene creation

one more class on using Filter Forge effects

 

over the next few months

Put my shopping offer in the wrong forum (What are you working on in Dec), I'll get it right one day!

Have been doing a bit of shopping, got it all done at last, just cards to write and gifts to wrap, plus this

Been looking at the resources and videos on the campus plus doing bits here and there, Merry Xmas and Happy New Year.

Congratulations on your Anniversary; 50 years, I've only done a max of 23 years followed by 15 years and on the 6th Nov I'm going to do it again. Insanity must be the reason!!! Good luck to you both.

This is my attempt at experiment 1, (5 fonts), plus using the first example as a theme

I've combined a few things together in this offering. I used the freebie collage from Corel, a photo of a hand made Pumpkin Pie from the internet, a cake with poppies on it for Remembrance Sunday and a few words I found about celebrations in the Autumn. I think I covered all the bases enjoy, I do like pumpkin pie with cream poured over it.

Orange Cake

I've been having a go at the Jack of Lanterns, it's not as easy as you may think; there are a lot of different tools and filters used on this. My first two attempts were worse than this one.

Forgot the shadows oops

Fear is not a fear when its been overcome, yes the spider is sitting on my hand; I also had that snake around my neck.

Hi Cassel,

 

All seems ok now, thank you. I do have another little problem, I have forgotten how to put a border around a photo using the "Selection Tool"; can you point me to the video that goes through this process please. I'm getting very forgetful, my wedding is only 3 weeks away, still haven't decorated the lounge, and awaiting a CT scan to inform me how large the cancer has become over the past year. Don't seem to have time to fit anything in. My intended is moving in and we are clearing her bungalow. The piles of stuff hasn't gone above head height but it's getting close.

 

Regards Colin

Hi to all,

 

As a new member I have been looking through the Creative Scrap section and some of the items with 3 buttons I'm unable to access. I get the message "Creative Scrap – register – b". Can someone tell me what this means please. I have Diamond Membership and would like to view these items.

 

Regards Colin

Thanks Karon, think I'll have a go at the October Cake themed project next just looking for the photos to go with it. Have just the right photo's but it's in a video will have to take some stills
