Our second assignment at Funky Playground Designs was to make an embellishment pack using real items that have been extracted. Even though I am not in the running anymore to win [insert sad face here] <\/em>we get to remain part of the apprenticeship program as long as we complete the assignments on time. And considering that I was up against many “established” designers who have been at this a lot longer, I am trying to not get too discouraged.<\/p>\n

Extractions are tough! I have only done them a couple times previous to this assignment and I can see why now. They are extremely tedious and time-consuming. And my wrist hurt from holding the mouse and fine-tuning the edges for so long.<\/p>\n

Anyways, here is my embellishment kit. I didn’t really go with much of a theme other than extracting some of my favorite types of embellishments that I like personally to use on my layouts. And that most of the items start with the letter “B”.<\/p>\n

The link to download can be found at Funky Playground Designs<\/a> or by clicking on the preview below. You do have to be registered for their gallery to view\/download, and we are only allowed to keep the download posted until 9:00 a.m. EST on Monday, August 11. <\/em>(After the contest is over at the end of August, I can then put them into my freebie gallery and do whatever I want with it.)<\/p>\n

I am especially pleased with how the flowers and teddy turned out. I digitally enhanced the daisy and the teddy bear a little bit after the extraction too.<\/p>\n

I would have liked to refine the vine and the toadstool a little more, but well, I ran out of time. Maybe I can do some more refining after the contest is all over.<\/p>\n

Friends and family may recognize the teddy bear as none other than Adrianna’s own much-loved teddy. This picture was taken prior to all the loving, when he still had a nice color and a pretty ribbon. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
