  1. Not much to say about this! - the papers were in my stash and recoloured to hopefully match colours in the photo, the font Arial, the foliage also from my stash.
  2. The background is a photo taken from the jetty to the island with a light blend mode (I do like the way the blend modes work in 2023!) I added in the 2 boats, seagulls and sprinkles. Another interesting day with 2023 and a full reinstall - and now thankfully everything seems fine again.
  3. Well my first 'play' with 2023 did not go well - I think I overworked my pick tool as it refused to work after a couple of resizes - all it would give me was a red circle with a diagonal line through the middle. I checked and closed all open images, I ran uninstall and did a repair, reboot psp and pc ... still nothing. But now works as normal on other images just not my day 1 project. I am sharing lunch with a friend who prefers her sandwich in quarters, we have a pie and cream for dessert.
  4. Having just got a new pc - and one that will finally load 2023, (for some reason I was not able to load 2023 on my pc or laptop - and Corel not able to help) so I thought this Boot Camp will be a good way to set it up and play with it, it is also my 5th Boot camp. I was able to get Windows 10 but keep getting messages to upgrade to 11 - not sure how it will work with plugins etc. Being a new PC and program I need to decide what to copy over. I also downloaded 2020 so I can use my plugins/filters. I prefer the dark workspace and have only added a couple of my favourites to the toolbar and the layers pallet so far. I hope to display a Gordon River cruise to Sarah Island in Tasmania. The sign says - Tasmania's oldest and most remote convict settlement. ...a place of security, for the restraint of the most incorrigible ..
  5. Thanks for a very interesting workshop Carole - a lot more practice is required to master some of these shadows but hopefully in time and maybe with a new mouse I will get there.
  6. Day 5 is a miss for me - I have tried but my mouse refused to co operate - fortunately, I rarely use ribbons and at least I have good notes now on what to do should I need to shadow them. Day 6 was easier and it is logical but oh boy, I needed to concentrate without interruptions. I don't generally use clusters but it is nice to learn how best to shadow and showcase them.
  7. I think I need a new mouse/mouse pad or maybe just steadier hands! I like how manipulating the shadow creates a more realistic effect - BUT - being able to move them to good effect is the tricky bit! @Susan Ewart We do have wombats but not many in my area - being nocturnal unfortunately we mainly see them as roadkill :(.
  8. Driving home today through the bush with all the wattle out reminded me of some 'tiles' I had experimented with many years ago (2006). Using a wattle photo I had taken I played around with different effects making small tiles (300x300px) - plaid, antique, enamel, fur, illumination, brush strokes, tiles, soft plastic straw, weave, wave, polished stone etc. These tiles are what I have used here. The shadow settings are those suggested in the tutorial. I have these all saved as presets from the Basic Scrap course and are pretty much my go to shadow settings.
  9. Shadows were all mostly as the tutorial.
  10. Thank you it is there now !!
  11. No, I am not able to access it either.

    Mask Workshop

    Hope this is being posted in the right place! Day 1 - not yet finalised but it was very frustrating - using 2020 - I watched pixel x pixel load on every selection I made it was unbelievable!! I could have almost grown the wild flowers while I was waiting!! So I changed to 2022 for Day 2 and it was so much faster. Day 2 - I made a few different plaids but all seemed 'too much' so I added a photo as a break but still showing a plaid.
  15. I just clicked on the "Here" above to have a look at the Gallery and I got an "Oops that page can't be found" - maybe it is just me or my pc ?
