I&#8217;m glad you weren&#8217;t disappointed there wasn&#8217;t an actual tutorial last week. And thanks for the suggestions for my new user name. I think <strong>glee<\/strong> is the winner and I&#8217;m going to go with <strong>ObiJanKenobi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of <strong>glee<\/strong>, she was the first to send me a link to one of her layouts to see if I could discern which of my tutorials she used to create it. This is the layout she linked me to:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.gingerscraps.net\/data\/1006\/medium\/bricolage-brush-chall-web.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll admit, she didn&#8217;t make it easy on me! SO I&#8217;m going to just make a guess or two. I&#8217;m pretty sure I see some elements of <a href=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/2018\/09\/tutorial-tuesday-photoshop-elements-77\/\"><strong>Making a Stylish Sandwich<\/strong><\/a> in there., and maybe some <a href=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/2017\/03\/tutorial-tuesday-photoshop-elements-29\/\"><strong>Style(s) Savvy<\/strong><\/a>. I also see some <a href=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/2017\/02\/tutorial-tuesday-photoshop-elements-25\/\"><strong>Blend Modes? Say What?<\/strong><\/a>. She&#8217;s probably used a few more too, but I&#8217;m stumped.<\/p>\n<p>Next I got a link from <strong>Ellen<\/strong> (<strong>gmae<\/strong>). She sent me this layout to scrutinize:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.gingerscraps.net\/data\/948\/Word_Art_05_2017.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p>Again, I see a couple of techniques. One is <a href=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/2016\/11\/tutorial-tuesday-photoshop-elements-12\/\"><strong>Word Art Wizardry<\/strong><\/a>.&nbsp; Another is <a href=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/2017\/01\/tutorial-tuesday-photoshop-elements-20\/\"><strong>Heritage Photos Get a Makeover<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And then almost right after <strong>Ellen&#8217;s<\/strong> message, I got one from her sister <strong>Carol<\/strong> (<strong>gnana96<\/strong>). Her layout has me completely stumped.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.gingerscraps.net\/data\/1068\/New_Baby_Sister_Left.gif\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p>I think I detect some custom shadows, but it&#8217;s not obvious to me which of the half-dozen shadow tuts I&#8217;ve written. Help a girl out here, <strong>Carol<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>This was a real challenge for me and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m at least 90% wrong with my guesses. And that&#8217;s OKAY!<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile back at the ranch, I&#8217;m painting bathrooms, cleaning ovens and all those nasty chores I like to procrastinate about because they&#8217;re not fun. But nobody wants to buy a house that&#8217;s not spic-and-span, right? We&#8217;ve booked our movers so I have a definite deadline now&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; I promise to make time to bring you a new tut next week. Spring is coming, so don&#8217;t forget to put your clocks ahead on Saturday before you go to bed so you&#8217;re not late for church!!
