Hello and Welcome to today's LEAP technique Slow Scrap Also.....Merry Christmas-in-July This month we have discussed 2 techniques....use and manipulations of shadows and selective color. SEE HERE We are going to use both for the slow scrap and since it's Christmas-in-July, we will also add a bit of cheer. ********** Please post your completed layout in The Lilypad gallery. GALLERY RULES: Layouts must contain at least 50% TLP products. (Templates count as 15%.) Uploads must be less than 250k. List all credits; no off-site linking allowed. Add your LO to this thread. You have 24 hours to complete your LO. LOs are due by July 29, 12pm Eastern. ********** INSTRUCTIONS: *1. Choose a photo that has something prominent in RED OR GREEN....it DOES NOT have to be Christmas-related. You will be turning the photo into a Black and White photo with the RED/GREEN object in color. 2. Add this photo to a blank canvas...any size LO works but the background must be WHITE (ie: NO background paper). You can use a mask on your photo or brush out parts of it....or manipulate the photo in any way you would like, as long as I can tell that your photo uses selective color. 3. ***OPTIONAL*** Add a photo mat, patterned paper, JC or tag behind the photo or somewhere on the page. 4. Add a cluster of elements with at least 3 items 5. Add a title and date (feel free to add additional elements here - ie...a date tag or word art title). Feel free to add journaling. *6. For at least ONE element/paper/tag/etc....you must clearly alter the shadow in some way, so that I can tell it is altered. *Starred items are what I'm looking for in this scrap...other than that, create a LO you love* BONUS*****I made a little video tutorial for altering a shadow to create a Christmas Ornament.
PSE users can watch this video by Cheryl of Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs to learn how to separate shadows to their own layer.
Thank you so much for the nice chatting and the tutorials, here's my take, full credits in gallery. Nice day everyone!
Well, I wish I hadn't had to work when the chat was on, cus I am still confused about the shadowing stuff. Maybe I have done it, and just don't realize it. I tried on the Queen....wordart, Great Body wordart, the hanging dice. I will keep trying though. And thanks for the video links.
I tweaked the shadow of the good times word bit and the string. Red by AnnaB posted Jul 29, 2021 at 3:58 AM
Thank you for the slow scrap. I manipulated the shadows of the stamp, flower and leaf. I used a stock photo because I didn't have the time to search for one of mine. I hope it's ok.
