The scrapbooking class is over and I learned a lot. Wow, I can't believe I know a little more about layers. Linda Sattgast was an excellent teacher and made wonderful videos and tutorials. Now if only I can remember everything she taught. I have two notebooks full of all her instructions.
Per the gallery's comments and help I redid Molly. I got rid of the border around the picture of Molly and changed the letters by doing them horizontally and turning them vertically. The object of this lesson was background placement and I did a quilt sort of background. I believe it all looks better.
I got many good comments about my high school reunion. They couldn't believe I look so young after 50 years. That made me feel good. It must be the Mary Kay. Ha!
The only change comment I got was to paint out the white lamp and I should do that but haven't yet. They liked the shadows on the ribbon and the clock in the background.
I have joined the 12 month club and vow to do at least one layout a month so that at the end at the end of the year I can make a book with all I've done this year. Here is the February layout. I even got picked for one of the good layouts for February. That is hard to believe.
Here is a layout showing the ladies I have class with. The hard part of this was taking one section of what should have been eight pictures. I had to take out the eightn section and still be able to put shadows in. I got it done. It was suggested that I put thread on the buttons to make them look sewn on.
And at first the formum thought more shadows should appear on the needle and thread. I think I got that OK.
