2011 01 Cross Country Skiing Banner

I only added one element:  the word "reach".  I'm pretty sure it came from Two Peas in a Bucket, but I can't seem to find it there anymore.  It was part of a Free kit entitled "Pink October" that was part of a Breast Cancer awareness campaign.  If anyone has the link for it, let me know.  Anyway, I just thought "reach" was good for beginning a new year - resolutions and all that. :)  Oh, that's Jeff, Mat, and Kathryn--having a good time!  :)

2010 08 Dad and Kristy at Henry's Fork Banner

I had to find a creative way to lengthen this picture to fit the banner space, so here's how I did it. I added a rectangular shape on the right side and matched it to the shadow in top right-hand corner of the photo (red=1, green=1, blue=14). Then, from Embellishments/Background Builders (included with MemoryMixer3), I added "Dots White", then shrunk that down to cover the entire shape and go over a little bit onto the photo (Opacity: 31). Next is "Flourish" from Embellishments/Flourish/White (Rotate: 44, Opacity: 31). The leaves are from Shabby Princess' Free Kit Spontaneous Delight by Carrie Stephens. I've used the Layered Leaf Border (mirrored, Opacity: 90) along the right border, and then leaf accent is used three times to fill in (once mirrored, each element gets progressively lighter, Opacity: 85, 80, and 75). The HFBG font is Georgia, White. The Best Advice font is Trebuchet MS, White.

2010 07 Rocket Car Banner

The font for "Have Fun, Be Good" is Georgia. The other font is Trebuchet MS. The overlay is from Shabby Princess' free Celebrating kit, CelebrateWordsOverlay, although it was edited in Photoshop to erase the edges of the overlay where the designs are cut in half, and the opacity is reduced to 24. I have to say, I really like the subtle effect it gives.
