ANNA & TJs wedding reception. (I will also post this in our masks workshop.) Hard to believe it's been almost 12 years! I played with brushes and ended up using corner punches and the wedding bell is also a punch. (in the mask) The text font is Tempus Sans. The frame is called Transparent01 in the PSP frame collection.

LESSON 6 - ANNA & TJs wedding reception. (I will also post this in our wedding forum this month.) Hard to believe it's been almost 12 years! I played with brushes and ended up using corner punches and the wedding bell is also a punch. (in the mask) The text font is Tempus Sans. The frame is called Transparent01 in the PSP frame collection.

according to wikipedia.com "The origin of the name is not entirely clear, but there are reports that it originated in Britain with a fancied resemblance of the wrench's jaws to that of a monkey's face, and that the many convoluted folk etymologies that later developed were baseless."

I do love this poem: Trees BY JOYCE KILMER I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day, And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in Summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain; Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree.

Susan, this is really eye-catching! I don't see where you used a mask. Is this posted in the right forum? Is it part of your Build-A-Kit?

That poet, Joyce Kilmer, was sort-of local to me when I lived in New Jersey. He became so famous they named a rest-stop off the NJ Turnpike for him. 😉

Wow, this is great! I think we call that big guy a Monkey Wrench?

Not to my knowledge. To me it's just a local roadside historical marker.

Really nice! Is that some sort of tracker that Poncho is wearing?

The font for the title at the bottom is Broadway and yes, it is my birthday today.

Here is my Lesson Five - Lady in White (A local tall-tale) The title font is Horror Story and the other is Imprint MT Shadow.

Corrie: Forgive me for changing the subject but I wanted to show you what I found in a Marisa Lerin "For the Love of Cats" bundle that I just purchased. An entire folder of Dutch word art.

I guess I'll post this one here, too, as it fits the theme. I already posted it in the Mask Workshop. Since I'm an only child, I don't have any siblings though I did wish I had some when I was young.

Yes, Suncoast features Woody Harrelson and Laura Linney. Blue Bloods has Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg.

A small project I've been working on to populate my new 32" monitor. I'm using the cass-painted-frames and I've made one for Cable or Streaming TV shows and a separate one for Streaming Movies. For the Movie one I went and found a film strip and duplicated it all over the place on top of the color painted frame strips. Here is one I did for my Friday Blue Bloods TV show and another for the film, Suncoast, which I will watch tonight on Hulu.

Wow, Lynda, congrats! I love the name, Caspian. I'm just the opposite that photos I get through Messenger are pretty much all I use, and they look good to me. I do have it on my desktop so I can download straight to my hard drive. And I don't do a Save As, I open each file up and use the download icon top right. Not sure if that would make a difference or not...

LESSON FOUR - MY CHILDHOOD HOME - I didn't get to do this in January so I used it for this mask lesson. The title fonts are am_intex for the decorated ones and Before the Rainbow for the san-serifs, treated with an inner bevel and shadowing. I found the bearded iris with Google Images and removed the background. The background paper is from Circle of Life mega kit.

That's great, Harmony! The font is outstanding! 👀

Beautiful, Lynda. Did you intend to use the large photo on an angle like that or did it get tilted when you angled the frame? It makes me tilt my head when I'm looking at it. 😉

Emerald, this would be better, I think, if when you are selecting the pattern in the materials palette for your floodfill, you reduce the size to 50% or even less. See if that improves your opinion of kaleidoscope.

Around here it was applied to telephone poles to protect them from rot in the ground.

I forgot how interesting the kaleidoscope effect is! This was a little plant given to us when we attended grandchild Jackie's wedding. Her hubby is a horticulture enthusiast and he had put out baby succulents for us to take home that day. Originally it was 1/4 the size of this. One of my few successes with a houseplant. It did stay outdoors all summer. The title font is Vivaldi, the journaling font is Copperplate Gothic, the mask is cass-SimpleArtsy-Template01.

Beautiful, Corrie! I seem to recall Creosote having a strong smell. Does the bush have an odor, too?

Doska, that is a very amusing story! 😆 The description of the wedding dress sounds much like the maid-of-honor at Will's wedding. Here she is with the drum. The bride is on the left and the groom on the right. The officiant is just behind her.
