Lynda, I am with you...lost. (which reminds me of the song "We are lost Together" by Blue Rodeo - it's freaking awesome!).

I too wasnt sure about downloading the other software. it held me back from installing it and the script. Carole, can you tell me about this other software and why do we need it. Could a new script be written that does the same thing that doesnt need the other software

I agree. People of those programs are really missing out on making unique pieces of art. Being able to make your own supplies is such a bonus. Sue T's work is a testament to that. Making supplies fueled by your own imagiination makes for one-of-a-kind pieces. And no need to worry about "personal use" issues should you want to sell any pieces.

Thank you, that explains it. I thought it was my system which is fast normally or I thought my internet provider, who just wants more money for less service. And I'm getting some odd emails today about my so-called Robinhood account. I just deleted them and never looked since I have no idea what a "robinhood account" even is.

Thank you for this Ann, i cant wait to read this. I agree it also falls into the Art Deco theme, which I love. I watch Poirot (David Suchet version) just to see the art deco stuff. And Miss Fisher's murder mysteries, oh the clothes she wears, so cool.

You should have been getting emails everyday. If they arent in the Spam folder (where mine go😢 no matter what I do) you are a Diamond member and might be able to get them from the Workshop page in the Campus. All the workshops are there where you can click on the lessons. I'm sure the supplies/templates must be with it too.

I was able to read this and WOW! the crocs are scary sounding. I had no idea there was ocean crocs. I had to read it all because I wondered why there was also a crocodile on the layout. The shark I understood. Do the sharks even stay away from the crocs?

I wish I had known that, because I bought more seed last year thinking only they would come up and I practically had an impenetrable forest not realizing the other ones would sow themselves. I had to take very many of them out as I thought they would choke the other flowers I wanted to photograph later on. Sunflowers are over-achievers!

I can't wait to see your photos from these trips. I would say the same thing, I like animals more than people....but I really like the people in this group, much different than other groups I'm in that doesnt have the same relaxed vibe.

I have been watching the Affinity tutorials (you make it look so easy) as we go through the workshop. Some stuff i really like, for example. When you put a full size paper above the shape you want to fill with it, it makes like a mask group (not sure what the correct term is) and you can then move the paper around inside that shape to where you want it. That is really cool. I know, I could make a mask group in PSP and do the same, Affinity just looks faster. I would be interested to see how Affinity does things like PSP Texture effects if a person wanted to make their own papers. I know eventually I will get the program so I'm going to keep watching tutorials so I feel somewhat familiar with the lingo at least.

WOW! I love this layout. So thoughtful to use the photo as a background and overlaying another photo adds good texture. Perfect choice using the circle for the sun. This template was made for these photos. I have friends that moved to Scotland last year and one thing they noticed was that the locals don't realize how stunningly beautiful it is right in their own back yard (so to speak). I think you know how incredibly beautiful Australia is by your layouts. I love to see a land that is so vastly different than where I am from in Canada.

Wow Leslie, how awesome to see a rhino in the wild, it must've been a humbling experience. I hope we see more from this adventure.

I would love a comparison as well. Perhaps in the Q & A or a blog post.

Oh Cristina, that means a lot to me. I still consider myself the newbie, the little sister trying to keep up with all the big sisters and brothers in the campus.

Beautiful memorial. I had to look up Anzac and learned it is the same as what we call Remembrance Day in Canada.
