January 30 - Extreme Shadows-3D sculpture world/place

These are all so amazing ans so creative. Thanks Anne for this unusual challenge. It was fun ans I hope I can remember what I did and will try it again. Thanks

 

Wow this was really hard....

 

Loved this Anne! I basically based my page off these amazing papers by Tangie:

 

Super fun! Thank you Anne!
I hope it's okay, that my layers are not full on the whole page, as that would not work here. Let me know what you think!


Edit: reworked the layout.

 

Not sure what I am doing wrong but trying to follow this post and when I draw a shape with marque tool then select inverse cannot find a way to delete - delete is grayed out on my screen. Help!

 

Such a crazy fun challenge!!! Thanks for stretching our minds and skills with this challenge!

 

We adopted another dog and two bunnies today! My IRL friends were teasing me about being Amanda's Humane Society. A perfect subject for today's page!

 

I had this problem too. Hope you figure it out.

 

The most difficult aspect of this challenge was choosing an idea... I had so many and can't wait to make another page like this! This was so stinking fun!

 

I had the same problem so I googled and found this youtube video very helpful. Maybe this will help you (assuming you're using PSE):

There Are So Many BEAUTIFUL! Layouts Posted For This Challenge!...I Don't Think Mine Is Quite Up To Snuff Compared To Everyone Else's...But Ultimately For Me It Was Such A Struggle To Even Figure It Out!...I Am Just Happy To Have Completed A Layout At All!...I Used The Minimum Layers!...3!...& Yes! I Had A Bit Of A Problem With The Shadows Too!...But Upon Reading Some More Tutorials Here...I Went Back & Revamped The Original Layout Post & Added More Shadows Using The Blend Modes...At Least Now I Feel That The Layout Looks A Little Bit Better!...My Layout Is All About My Butterfly Utopia!...Again! Thanks! To Everyone Who Helped Me Out!!!!!!!!!...Hearts & Hugs!... ...

*For My Butterfly Utopia I Used:

*Current Mood-NBK Design
*Keep On Dreaming-NBK Design

 

I enjoyed this, but I wanted to use a silhouette for the cutout and couldn't figure out how. I will keep searching though...

 

I seriously could play with this forever, but will call it done. Had some difficulty with the original shape stacking as I was trying to use the inner shadow on my shape layer and reduce the fill of the shape to 0, but it was giving me grief with trying to sandwich elements between.
But, once I got that figured out, it was cool to play with the shadow sliders and see the effect of tweaking them.

 

This was SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!
I was inspired by @A-M 's layout!
