Week 30 One of my "keepers". Such a pretty cup I couldn't part with. Background by Riley B. Graphics (Creative Fabrica), duplicated, rotated 180 and darken blend mode to get the dark areas in the corners. Followed the button tutorial for the button, I've done it now a number of times...I still cant remember the steps yet. I can follow along faster though, so that's progress. The Lifted Photo script was used. Fonts are Winter Vibes Regular (different that the other font of the same name) and Winchester Regular from CF.

We have a door to the basement that has a cat door. It's translucent but not really see-through. It allows them access to the basement where one of the litter boxes are. One cat goes through fine, the other not at all. It's a swing door so we've had to use a chain going from the cat door flap to the door to hold it up so the other cat would go through it. The door to the basement is usually open as that's where the laundry room is and one of my studios. And even when the door is partly open they will go through the cat door and not just the people door. We also built floating shelves(with carpet on them) for them in the upstairs "cat room/ my husbands office" they are set in a ascending stairs that lead to the top of built in bookshelves, where they sleep and on the other side is two more stairs coming down. they will race through the house, up the cat stairs and down the other side. Other than cat trees by the windows we put a permanent shelf behind the couch which is in front of the living room window, so the cats can sit on the shelf (about 5 feet long by 8-10 inches wide) and watch outside. It is a very well used. And this older gentleman that delivers the flyers will stop and talk to the cat through the window.

Those kitty walks are so cool!

Love the reflection on the text.

That is really blue! We had a house shaking thunder and lightening storm this morning . The the skies cleared and it's a blue sky, but not as blue and glorious as yours!

I put it on my wishlist in the store so I wont forget.

OMG! How precious. Love the layout and the Word Frame is a really nice touch

This is very cool! I will check that script out.

I love this. Julie is right, it's almost like fireworks. I like this technique and like Corrie, I wish I had more time to explore how to do this so it looks as nice as yours and Julie's do.

When I was young (grade 4, I think) we lived on a lake with not a lot of other homes (let alone full-time residents). We only got two channels on TV and Sunday night was the Wide World of Disney. Often there would be a show that was two hours so we had to wait a whole week to see the second part since it was only a 1 hour show. On one Sunday we watched "The Parent Trap" (with Haley Mills playing 2 rolls as twin sisters) part one. The next week my brother and I had our baths early so we could be all set to watch part two. That night we had a big storm and the power went out, so we missed the second part. It would be more than 20 yrs later that I saw the second 1/2. The Wide World of Disney was my favorite TV show. I remember one Disney short called "In the Bag" where a park ranger enlisted the help of the park bears to clean up the park...to this day me and several people my age can remember, "pick it up, put it in the sack, bump bump" (those aren't the correct words, but similar to that). At work anytime someone says "pick that up" my co-worker and I say, "put it in the sack, bump bump". the youngsters think we are loopy.

I wish i could take credit for this beautiful certificate, but I can not. The heavy gun was brought in, thanks to the the Creative talent of Michele. Yikes, I hope I dont see that big bad red word on mine!

The paper and charm are gorgeous, Mary. had to laugh at PSP-aholic. I looked it up in the dictionary, and there was a picture of YOU! 😂

Week 29 Fonts are Magical Dream and Magical Source (Creative Fabrica) Background from Riley B Graphics, which I used Kaleidoscope effect on, then a texture effect and a bit of noise to make it look like fabric. It's supposed to be a warm cup of tea and a cozy sweater on a cool winter day.

Oh man, I was pinning my hopes on all this time opening up for me. Guess I better get better at managing it now.

Master scriptor and hedgehog wrangler, you are truly a renaissance woman Corrie! What a wonderful experience with a happy ending and safe new life for this sweet little thing.

Wow, he's a stunner. Those eyes! I love that tail, the colors are so beautiful.

I do the very same with the tutorials on screen and PSP on the other. I used to have a laptop running the tuts and PSP on the desk top. this is more convenient now.

Glad you forged on Corrie, I think your ropes look great. and with shadowing they will really pop. I'm interested to see how that will be done, as there must be a lot of selections (promoted) to deal with shadowing on. Beautiful flower!

I'd like a view that is bigger, almost full screen, full enough but able to see the chat at the same time. I had previously talked with Rene about 2 screens and watched my husband as he also works with very large spreadsheets. he said the same thing, his work flow increase. I just learned from Rene when she recently mentioned she can drag right to the layers palette, so I tried it and it works and keeps the file name. That was so cool. I work with 2 screens now and like my hubby and Rene, would have a hard time going back to one. I'm fine with coming in early, maybe 15- 20 minutes so we can chat more. I really like the idea of the graphic of the class we are doing. I hope the transition to the new company is seamless for you. Oh, the one thing is when members cant get logged on. I don't know if that's a matter of individual's computer settings (full browser cache etc) of if Webinar Ninja can change anything to make it easier to log into.

Here's my Certificate. No more hiding behind my monitor...I'm a proud font-a-holic! Now Michele....it's time for the Movie poster. the challenge is on. "Font A Haul -ICS" ***A Heist Movie*** Stolen Fonts! Text Take-downs! Nefarious Non-Font-ers! Starring: The "Prez" (aka: Michele F) The "Moderator" (aka: Carole) The "Editor" (aka: Ann S) The "Scriptor" (aka: Corrie K) The "Red Shirt" (aka: random dude that doesn't make it to the end....yet to be cast) (Red Shirt = Star Trek reference) With Appearances from Celebrity Fonts such as: Helvetica Arial Calibri Verdana and many more!

Is the day called "Heritage Plaque Day". I know what you mean by Plaque...but I think of teeth and the dentist and that weird candy looking drop we got as kids that colored our teeth to show us where the plaque was. could you call it, "Unveiling our Heritage"? ... or something to that effect.

AWESOME! It's better than I could have imagined! Great job and a big THANK YOU for all your work and your continued collecting of the Whole-y Font (PS...it's a religion, but I spelled it different so as to not step on any other religious toes) (PS2 'Whole-y' as in ALL the fonts in the world).

Excellent. Thank you

I've always said, "I need a 48 hour day". I wish I had more PSP time. How rude that my job interferes with that!

I only got the email from the photo edits class and nothing since, except the forum emails. Should I register again? Or will it be in the Diamond section and I can just access it there when the workshop is on?
