30th November - Narelle's "Twig & Berry" Workshop

Friday 30th November at 10.30am

"Twig and Berry" Christmas Layout

*  Please do not reply to this blog post or email.  For bookings you must contact Di
on   0404 266 296 or by emailing dismale@bigpond.com.au *

This year has flown past sooo quickly- and here it is, my final class for the year!

We'll be creating a really traditional Christmas layout using the Kaisercraft "Twig and Berry" range.  

My layout doesn't have a title on it because I'm giving you the option to use one of the gorgeous Scrap FX Christmas words.  Choose from "Spirit of Christmas" or "Decorating the Tree".  

 Please advise Di which word you would like at the time of booking.

For the class you will need to bring along:-

• A 5x7 portrait orientation photo (can be added later if you want to take a special photo during your Christmas celebration) *See below for photo editing tips*
• A bright Red button (1.5-2cm diameter)
• Red adhesive pearls eg Kaisercraft or Flourish with a Bling (we'll have some for sale but if you have lots at home bring them along

If you like your photo to have a similar finish to the one I have used on my sample-  here are some basic instructions using the free software "picasa".

This is the photo "before" and "after" the editing!

       

1.  Download Picasa-  http://picasa.google.com/

2.  Open your photo in Picasa

3.  Select the second tab that has a sun shape on it.

4.  Slide the fill light, shadows and highlights up and down til you are happy with the look, then slide the "Colour temperature" across to the right to give the photo a yellowish tone.

5.  Select the last tab on the right and click on "Vignette" (this is the function that puts the green border around the photo!)

6.  With the colour picker, select a dark green colour, then slide the "size", "Strength" and "Fade" options until you are happy with the look.  

7.  Select "Apply" and save your photo!

Blessings,

Narelle xxxxx
