PSP again

I've had a little play on Paint Shop Pro and made a couple of things.

This first one is my Nan, she loved Lily-of-the-Valley so I made this -

My Nan was a truly amazing lady, before her eye-sight deteriorated she made hundreds of items of clothing for children for Oxfam. She had her first birthday party aged 90 and on one of her birthdays (her 80th I believe) she went up in an airplane to loop the loop! She lived until 2 months before her 104th birthday and I still miss her everyday.


This Love Bug is so cute and really easy to make, I've made this one from a tutorial HERE

This is an animated one I've been playing around with tonight, nice glittery wings on him -


Finally two signature tags I designed myself :) -


 I definitely prefer the gold one but had fun designing them and working out how to make them!

A couple of pictures

Well I think everyone likes 'clock-out' time in work but when you walk home from work the same way I do it makes it doubly nice. Here are a couple of pictures from my recent walk home -



I had the intention of feeding the swans but there were so many seagulls around they were frightening the swans, better luck next time I hope.
I know I've said it before but I am so lucky I live where I do!

Word clouds



I haven't made any craft things recently as I've been trying to tidy up my pc, sorting everything out into folders, getting rid of any rubbish and duplicate photos and putting everything I can on Photobucket.
Before I started the mass 'clean-up' I made a couple of word clouds. These two are for my son and his girlfriend -








This next one I made for my mum, I wasn't sure if she would like it but I'm so glad she does  -



This is one I made of my dog - 


 Finally, this is one my eldest grandaughter made for me and I love it ♥♥♥ -  



 

I'm afraid that's all for now but I really haven't been up to much lately :(

PSP animations that I have been learning

I have been playing around and learning how to do things on Paint Shop Pro recently, I use PSP X6 and JASC Animation Shop 3. Here are some of my finished projects -

The first one is the Underwater effect from Dragon's Breath. A very effective effect and a very easy to follow tutorial. I have a lot of photos from various aquariums which I can use this on.

This second one is the Vanish animation which is, again, from Dragon's Breath. I like this one and found it equally as easy to follow -

This is one I made from a photo I took at Blue Reef Aquarium on my grandsons first birthday -

 This next one is Rain without plugins I have real problems with plugins as an awful lot won't work with PSP X6 sadly. I have used a photo of my dog who in real life hates the rain and will do anything to not go out in it (I love the way his harness has slipped down his body on this picture) -

Rain Animation

This last one is a snow globe which I made following two tutorials, Hypergurl and PSP Buddies. I love these little globes, so pretty -

I haven't watermarked any of these images but please do not copy them :)

A nice day

A few weeks ago I went to the park with my two grandaughters, we had a lovely afternoon and even got to feed the squirrels who were happy to come remarkably close to us. This is the digital scrapbook page I made of the afternoon (backing paper and elements are from Computer Scrapbook
they have lots to choose from and they are all excellent) -

 

DIgital scrapbook...another page complete

I've had another stab at digital scrapbooking this week and I like what I made. Last year I decided to start my family tree and found three of my ancestors died at sea in the last world war and are named on the war memorial on Plymouth Hoe so I decided to make the photo's I took into a digital page -

Paint Shop Pro

I haven't made any cards today but I have been having fun playing with my Paint Shop Pro. Here are a couple of the things I have made -

I love fairies and flowers






When I have made all the cards for the dogs I am determined to learn how to do more with PSP, I know so little but there are so many things you can do with it!
