I'm always amazed how the same theme can give such different results, wonderful projects!!

Translation:

 

My favourite spot

 

My favourite spot in Appeltern (the name of the showgarden) must be this spot and a spot further on which  I call the Ikea garden. This spot looks and is soothing with the bench near the water and the plants surrounding you.

 

This picture I printed and it's on a wall.

 

 

 

Belwe is the font I used.

Had another go and changed the size, added a barcode and a gradient. Font is belwe Bd :)

 

 

 

Am I the only one who is a bit "scared" to alter settings like UN check the lock aspect ratio for example? I'm always afraid I don't remember how it was before altering, especially when you start another project :)

Oh wow Ann, what a wonderful lay out! :)

I'm in too :)

 

The last challenge (travel tale?) I couldn't participate even though I wanted to due to my mum moving house and the enormous amount of paperwork that came along with it. My head was a bit too full :)

 

But anyway, I hope I will keep up with this challenge and love to see all your projects :)

 

 

 

I love Cristina's lay out, but I only did what was asked in the tutorial. Will change things later. Love the code at the bottom and the Special edition text,Cristina :)

 

 

 

My challenge subject will be Appeltern, a garden inspiration park in the Netherlands my husband and I love to go to. It's so nice to walk there, even when you don't need inspiration for your garden.

 

 

 

Well anyway, here is the first page :)

 

 

Is it possible to show us why the same sort of elements ( for example a button/flower) need another setting? I've read your explanation with the butterfly, and that made sense ? but maybe when you could show the difference it would help even more? :)

In the thread about the floods in Europe I posted my 100th post! Hopefully there will be a lot more :) I have PSP a bit on pause because of the summer and the house move of my mum (82) to another part of the country.  Have a lot of administration to do......and make sure the care/benefits are organised ok.

I'm from the Netherlands too, but live in the upper north of the country. No floods there............

 

It's awful to see how  the three countries are affected.....

 

Thanks for asking :)

I will try to participate, but with a mum moving house (almost 82), I will be busy!

 

I think I will use pictures of nice places in the Netherlands we have been to over the years :)

Carole asked: "Monique, how many pets would you have at the same time? "

 

At one time we had 7 cats at one time and a dog . We had a big house then, so space enough :) Now we have one cat and one dog in a smaller house. :) Can't imagine a house without pets :) I haven't got chickens anymore now.

Thanks Sue, I wrote your tip down for the future projects :)

Another pets lay out..........

Day 3

 

We had several kinds of chickens over the years and even some little ones (how do you call them? Chicks?)

 

When you add shadows the groups merge?

And day tw0 :)

 

I think I have a double shadow on the banner at the dog page.

 

If that's correct, I'm gonna jump for joy because I finally (maybe) see shadows better (well how they show) :D :D

 

 

 

Text is in Dutch, so translated it is:

 

The favourite color for our cats is really red, we've had other colors, but red ones....

Our dogs are accidentally all brown, brown/white or dark brown.

My day 1 was ready earlier this week but forgot to upload it :D

 

The animals on the pages are the ones we had over the years. (We had more, but before the digital era, so don't have pictures of them scanned yet)

 

Two of them are still here, the rest are in heaven ;) You could say I'm a pet lover (and my husband too)

 

 

Oh wow, Annie, What a beautiful project! Love the birds!!

Jean,  Billabong sounds Australian, reminds me of the Flying doctors tv series or Mcleods daughters :) Love the layout :)

Ann, it's almost a holiday card you send to family and friends! Nice!

I'm a bit early I know,but don't know if I can post a birthday wish  tomorrow, but I wanted to wish you a very happy birthday!

 

 

 

And thanks again for the helpfull and nice lessons!

Laurie, I just downloaded the template?

Hi all :)

 

I'm joining in too, hope I will manage to keep up with the challenge, stil have to finish the last project of the study group.

 

I think this challenge will be about the pets we had over the years, nice way to honour and remember them. We now still have a dog and one cat. (At one time we had 7! cats at the same time :)

 

 

 

Nice to "see" familiar faces here, we are almost like family here :)

Oh my, scripts are so addictive! :)

 

Instead of finishing projects for the study group I tested several scripts and loved it! :)

Groningen , the Netherlands :)
