One of Heather’s favorite features in Scrapbooks Etc. is seeing the cover
options that are created - they usually have four pages that all have the same
photo and one ends up on the cover, while the other three are showcased in the
front of the magazine. She thought we could try something similar so she
included a 3 generations photo of her family and challenged us to create a
page. This wasn’t a contest, simply a fun way to see how everyone used the
photo.
It was an honor to
work with a picture of such distinguished ladies! Not sure my page would make the cover of any
magazine but I enjoyed the challenge! I
started out using a sketch by Alesha Walls.
Stamps: Notes and
Details, Decorative Overlays.
Embellishments: Brads,
Get it Done.
Punches: Square,
Timeless Types Junior Numbers, Curly Label, Flag, Eyelet border, Butterfly
Shape 1 and 2.
Font: Simply
Glamorous.
I tried to
remember all the ‘techniques’ I used on this page that I’ve learned from
Heather in these two classes.
Zooming in on a
picture – didn’t know that button existed!
Center
vertically/horizontally on a page – what a time saver!
Making a double
label punch with ease.
Using the Change
Object layer button – this is such a great function. Mine doesn’t always work but when it does, it
is awesome!
Zooming in on a
page – I never used this function very much, don’t know why. I sure do now tho!
Changing the color
of a drop shadow – so neat!
Grouping to resize
all in one step!

I realize that
Heather didn’t invent all these fantastic functions in MDS but she is
responsible for bringing them to my attention and for that, I would really like
to thank her! The classes were so worth
it!
