Rodeo Rider

Hello everyone!  Look, I've finally finished something.  I think it may be more the fact that I have just to many things going, and fail to concentrate on just one at a time.

I seemed to be receiving quite a few comments from gals who had trouble with the password.  The translator, with is just wonderful to read the text of the blog, also translates the password into the selected language and it needs to be typed in English.  It is now in red so it is easily located, highlight it copy and paste it at 4shared.  You may have noticed that I have been adding the text in Portuguese also, as a way to aid these gals who have seemed to have more trouble.  I hope this helps. 

Frame Template #9

This template is actually laid out in a 12x12 inch background so you can do the entire layout in it if you wish.  First click on the mask and than drag in the photo you wish to use. In order for the photographs to look correct you must, click on your move tool and at the corner adjust the position of the photo until you have aligned the top edge of the photo with the black mask that is included in each layer, this will give the impression that the pictures are folded.  If you would like to change the background matting, add another layer, group them together crtl+g, and fill with a paper or color you prefer.  I have made it large intentionally, click layers, merge visible and than resize it to suit your preferences and drag it into your layout.

Polar Pals

Hello everyone!  Hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas and may you have a great New Year.  Today is the first day I have had alone since school started I think.  The grandchildren were here this week, and I had to make the boys come in, so they didn't freeze.  Well you have probably guessed!  I thought they were just like Polar Pals.  Inspired by the concept and here is the final result.  The sign is blank so that you can add text if you'd like.  The borders are included, but also included are some of the smaller pieces, so that you can make something of your own.

Just a note for the newer gals to scrapbooking.  When you add the drop shadow for the "ice" objects, if you would look on the right of the layer and double click on the lock, you will be able to adjust the shadow.  Move the slider until you are satisfied with the look (for my preview the shadow was set to 10).  Try this with any other items when your not happy after adding the drop shadow.

 Well it has not stopped snowing since it started.  It's a bit early here for us also.  The grandchildren were sent home early from school today.  Under construction, one snow castle in the backyard.  The kids just think the snow is great and it really is absolutely beautiful. The traffic was so bad it took my poor husband over 2 hours to get home.  Fortunately he was home about an hour before they closed the highway.  Jack gets off the latest in the evening and by that time things had deteriorated even further.  The boss offered his spare room, and THIS mother is grateful. 

Believe

  Thanks so much for the nice comments, I really appreciate you taking the time to leave a note.  This kit really should probably have another name but since the word art was already included, I thought it appropriate.  The grand kids are really waiting on the snow to come.  We have another early football game with our grandson tomorrow and once we are out and running we don't always come right home, so I thought I'd get it started tonight.  


The snowmen in the Teal color are the same size as the red, I just made them smaller for the preview. Also for the snowflakes, just duplicate the layer (Layer>duplicate layer), and re size them smaller, the large one is included. Have as many as you like.


The word Believe in the lightest color is included, however I placed the dark behind it and offset the layers to achieve the look shown.

In order to wrap the ribbon around the frame, just place it in the position you would like and erase to reveal the frame beneath, just as we have done in the past. I did not do this for you, so it could be used in another manner if you wished.

The grandchildren got THEIR wish!  This morning we woke up to snow on the ground this morning.  I guess if you BELIEVE anything is possible.  Some of you may know I don't really like to drive...and never in the snow, so  I coaxed my hubby into driving me to the store to do a bit of holiday shopping.  Lots to do before Thanksgiving.

Hello everyone!  We have been having some terrible wind storms.  The power has been off twice this morning already.  The only real casualty so far is my patio umbrella.  I should have went out and put it away.  Pretty sure there's no repairing it now.  There seems to be a lull in the storm this afternoon so I thought I'd run in and load something for you.

Beware

Have fun.
