20150128 | I’m just about as pleased with this scrapbook page as I am with the the play. I used an old template from my stash for the photos on the diagonal. The orange paper is actually a gray scale template from Captivated Visions I colored by selecting some orange from the Camp Half-Blood banner. I used some brushes native to Photoshop Elements and blending modes for the photo in the lower left corner. I hung the “Live” tag (from a very old kit by Ambowife Designs) from the G with some help by the eraser tool. The tag is part of a set that included “Live,” “Laugh,” and “Love,” and it occurred to me that the other pronunciation of “live” was quite appropriate here. I took the Theaterworks logo and all the smaller photos (including the book cover) from their website. I sneakily took the larger photo near the end of the performance because I was so happy with the show I could no longer resist the urge to record it for my own sentimentality. Sorry to the usher I promised I wouldn’t take any photos! (blush) And even though I found the photos on their website, I’m still glad I took one; the actors are different! My favorite part of the layout is the title, which I extracted from the cover image.
20150119 | I dug deep and for a long time into my stash to find the pieces I used. It’s all old stuff you probably can’t find now, but the designers still deserve credit. :) The black paper is by Cross Cut Designs from Capture Your December. The pink paper is from Down This Road Designs. The “COOL” word strip is from Thao Cosgrove long ago at ScrapGirls, the “BEAUTIFUL” word strip is from Word Art World, and the “CRAZY” strip is from Laura Banasiak at ScrapOrchard. The string of beads is from Marnie Adams a long time ago. The pictures are held down with a screw contributed by Dream Big Designs for the 2013 collab “In The Forest” by ScrapOrchard designers. The alpha comes from a kit by Inspired By Dominic Designs called “Glitzy” created in 2009. Yes, my stash goes way back! :D Oh! And if you’re interested in the font, it’s the one I use the most, available free, called Everyday Casual by Janda.
