Belle Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Everyone's layouts are looking good so far! Ready for the next task?? Week Four; Task Five Add 15 embellishments to your layout. Don't forget to keep to the colours you picked in Task One. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhbren Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 FIFTEEN embellishments?!! You're right, Valerie - I'm not too happy with this requirement. I sense clusters of small embellies coming on. Haven't done yesterday's yet; DH had rotator cuff surgery, and that took up most of my time. With today's instructions in mind, I think I'll follow Carla's lead, and just brush the edges, at least for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnotDreams Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 From Valerie T: "Are you putting your brushes on their own layer? Brushes will add to the active layer, changing that layer. If you put them on their own layer, you can make changes without altering the rest of your layout. For complicated brush work you need to put each bit on it's own layer." Tried this this morning--exactly what I needed to do, but hadn't thought to do it. Thanks Valerie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRS Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Am I reading this right? 15 embellishments??? Are you sure that isn't a typo? Pretty please be a typo, lol? J/K. This is a challenge for me, even though I really like embellishments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhbren Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Here's my layout through Task 4. Background paper: KME_Watercolor Resist-Border, colored from swatch; Brush: SNU_DynBrush_Painted; used darker green from swatch, then overlay blend at 62% opacity. It's subtle, but it's there - for now. On to the embellishments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terri M Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Well, I did it, although resorting to some pieces of tape for the last couple. I sure learned a lot about the color replacement tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapgran Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 15 embellishments - holy guacamole. I am a minimalist scrapper. This is certainly taking me outside my safe little box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapgran Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Okay so I managed 15 embellishments. Hopefully we won't have to put much more on the page coz there's not much space left. 2 Banners, 3 buttons, 3 balloons, 1 date tag, 2 checks, 1 bow, 1 heart emb & 2 frames. PHEW!

Is it OK to have more than 15? We need clarification on the rules here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRS Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Don't forget we have today and Monday for tasks. I'm not peaking at the tasks...I'm too scared to see what's next. If we get more embellishments, we should throw them at Valerie while she's hiding behind the couch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
