My granddaughter Kaitlyn and her cousin.  She loves anything sour, looking at this picture makes my mouth pucker and water…..

Process:  I used an action by Florabella Luxe called Mademoiselle on my photo to make it pop.  I clipped the photo to the watercolor FotoBlendz. The photo of the lemons I got from the web extracted it and added a shadow.  Created a Lemonade label using the stroke function and added additions text and elements to finish my layout.

Process:  The photos needed some work on them since they were taken on an iphone and not good quality.  In order to have a more uniform look I lighten some of them to match the lighting of the others.  I duplicated and used the Screen mode, some I lowered the opacity because they were too bright.  One of the photo’s was really grainy and I used some steps to soften it a bit (instructions coming soon).  I then changed them to BW and used the gradient map on the photos to get a more unified tone.  Once that was done I added my elements and journaling.

Process:  Started with the paperie for a background, added the FotoBlendz mask to the area I wanted to place my photo.  I clipped my photo to it, adjusted the mask by pulling the horizontal areas to show more of the photo.  Added the loopdaloop below the mask because I only wanted the outer areas to frame my photo.  I added the wordart, elements and a few splatters.  One thing I did do with one of the brushes is add a stroke (size 1) because I wanted it to be a bit bolder.

Risa 7-4-14

I know the photos are blurry, I tried to fix them as best I can.  Although they are still a bit blurry I just had to scrap these pictures anyway.  Such personality.

Captivated Visions Mishmash Blendme Stash 6

Process:  I wanted to combine a couple of papers and get a muted effect so I used one of CV mishmash masks, love how this shows bits and pieces of each paper.  I added the photos, the chalk board one is my daughters board she keeps the stats of Risa on, when I pulled it up to show the pounds and inches the “Eight” disappeared, so I used the font “Return to Sender”, it fit the board perfectly!  I finished off with transfers and elements to add a bit of color to the background….

Summer Fun 2

My granddaughter Sydney back in 2009, her nickname at the time was Birdie, hence the little bird attached to the banner.
