Lynda: That's beautiful. I'll have to try that next time!

Michelle: You'll find it at Creation Cassel, Carole's blog. I tried to post a link but it won't post .. sorry

I did Carole's mandala.. fun coloring!

Had my first visit with great-grandbaby Logan yesterday and the debate was who does he look like. Everyone says his dad, Maverick, whereas I keep saying it's more like Winston Churchill. ✌ ;-)
I decided to do a little design to compare Logan with his dad. I tried to adjust the head shots to be the same size and SCREWED them into the wood. ;-) The font inside the arrows is Aviation Cocktail. I slipped in some shadowy bears. They became significant when one showed up at the gender reveal party! So Maverick is now Bear Daddy!
-
Lynda: I like your design; especially the little tractor in the center which gives it a special touch! One typo, I'm afraid, the word "vinegar" is misspelled. All in all, a very pleasing piece of work! [ok, now I'm hungry!] ;-)

Here is my female cardinal from my previous design for the color challenge but I've applied the free script called Dark Tones 3 that Corel is offering this week. It adds dramatic shadows and lighting; I kinda like it. Here are both photos: before and after.

Annie: I love the green-haired turtle! I actually swiped it and sent it to my daughter, Laurey, who collects all things turtle. You should see her house and her car! I'm sure one with hair is unique for her.
-
Mary: Very nice design featuring your little one. The crayon border worked well; the stitches and tubes look great! Good call to use the heart mask; no need to draw if there's one available! That's the first I've seen the Glamlips font which I did download per Carole but didn't try yet. I see it will call for a rather large size in order to be readable. Good job!
-
Minka: I love the colors you used in your Puzzle Fun design. I used to do puzzles when my mother was alive but none for years now; she passed in 1985 (gosh, over 30 years! How time flies.. ) I actually think the ribbons are the best part of that design!

Carole/Cassel: I'm doing Lab 10-08 and having trouble with the template download inside the PDF. It's not giving me the layout shown. I'll post what I expected (copied from the PDF) and what I got when I downloaded the template from the PDF.
Help!
Karon: Did you do Lab 10-08? Was the template the same as the illustration in the PDF?

Val: Great colors -- your papers are wonderful! I do like that big gray background .. is it a paper or a brush or what? Those flowers are so colorful they stand out even though surrounded by patterns and color. Great job!
Also, thank you for your kind remarks on my designs. Much appreciated.
-
Lynda: That brings back memories for me. We have a Renaissance Faire here around Labor Day. My husband loved the turkey legs and we enjoyed the jousting and the raptors. Nice layout.
-
What a beautiful dog, Marie-Claire! I take it your design uses a photo from when he was a puppy. That color works very well.

Here's my take on Tarnished Trumpet colors. I made the background by using the brush in a flower shape and then filling the center of the flower with a color from the flowers in the photo. I then applied soft light. The corners are also brushes which did not want to cooperate. They would not stay the same size, so I ended up with each corner on a separate layer so I could use the pick tool on them. I then added an under-layer in the same color as the corners and pulled in the original background to leave a border. The photo is from the Hudson Valley in Pictures. The word art was in my stash and the little mythology about the Cardinal I found using Google.

Carole/Cassel had us making polka dot backgrounds with our final mask assignment for the Love Story Challenge. Here is my latest great-grand.
-
And here is my final. My granddaughter, Ilana, gifted me with 5 photos of Logan for his one week anniversary so of course I had to use them all. Ilana was hugging a gray polka dot blanket so I sort of copied that for the background.
-
Carole/Cassel: My linoleum background color came from the foam on the waves x 12 repeats! :-)
Wonderful work everyone. Amazing what I can learn looking at your work. I think all our designs have taken a giant leap upward in quality with this intense week of masks!
Happy Valentine's Day!

Here's my Lesson #6 in the Love Story Challenge. We'd hit Acapulco every January for a week; our break from the cold and snow. These classes with masks are really good and I love the minimal designs you can create.
-
I did a large travel challenge last year featuring Acapulco, Mex. but this is another photo from the original trip in 2008. I just love that beach; we'd hang out there all day with beach boys waiting on us hand and foot. I added the pelican photo-bomb! The frame reminds me of a camera lens. The "linoleum" background can be the foam on the waves or the snow at home here now! The font is Mama plus two beachy embellishments.

Here's my Lesson #5 in the Love Story Challenge which features an animal sanctuary that was near where I lived back in 2004-2008. No matter what I tried using various brushes to add to the mask just didn't look right so I went with a frame, instead. The background is a paper I had in a Fall kit and, this time, pasting in text to a selection rectangle finally worked for me! It's hard to see on the Forum but there's a white border all around that I make with an extra layer under the paper and then "pick" the paper layer in on each corner. I've learned it's best to use guides so things come out even.

Really enjoying seeing everyone's work. It's all quite inspiring! Here's my Lesson #5 which features an animal sanctuary that was near where I lived back in 2004-2008.
