It´s Wednesday again and I am linking up with Julia at Stamping Ground.
I´m really sorry to hear that Julia is not well at the moment. I hope she can have her operation soon.
We are here to share our work desks, but mine has not got any craft stuff on it today. In stead, there is a brand new desk top computer. Tada:
It´s my birthday next week (I´ll be 65!) and I´ve treated myself to Photoshop CS6. I´m having a go at digital scrapbooking. I´m doing a free online course with The Scrapaneers. It´s quite complicated as the course is with Photoshop Elements which is not exactly the same as PS. On top of that, my Photoshop program is in Spanish, so it´s taking me ages to figure out what to do.
But I have managed to complete the lay out of lesson 1:
That´s it from me today. Short and sweet as they say.
Have a good week all of you,
Blessings,
Lisca

A good layout Lisca . I really like how you've divided the page in half with one side being left white & the other using pattern paper . Happy woyww Jill #2
Well you've got my full admiration there Lisca as I'm useless at that sort of stuff and only scraped through that part of my HND at college. So good on yer missus

Oh that's a fabulous layout - well done you, we've got photoshop but I have never got to grips with it!
Happy new desktop PC and Photoshop! Your scrapbook page looks amazing.
I'm smiling because I share your pain...my PC and printer have options for Portuguese or Spanish only. I find it helps to keep a notebook of the translations once you work out what you want to do.
Happy WOYWW

Hi Lisca,
I have a huge screen too - pop by and see, it's a monster. Thankfully there is now tower, it is all in the screen. I hope you are enjoying your new computer, it's always fun to get something new. I love your layout, it's beautiful. Thanks for sharing, Lyns #17 xx
A big computer screen makes all the difference! I hope you have fun with the Photoshop package..sounds like a fab birthday prezzy to me :-). The LO is great, I bet you'll enjoy creating more!
Hugs, LLJ 11 xx
Wow! Lisca, what fun - an enormous screen, lots of new programs to get used to. Enjoy. Do I take it you have gone for Windows 10? How are you finding it? We had put it onto our laptop - but I see last evening, John has removed it again and gone back to Windows 7.... He couldn't play the craft CDs we have - so, not good.
Take care. God bless.

It's always nice to get a new computer. I try and use mine as long as I can then run screaming trying to make do until a new one comes! Good for you learning to do digital scrapbooking! Glenda #21
Great to see you're mastering your new computer. They take a little while to get used to but it looks fab so I'm sure it will become a new best friend :-)

Happy early B-day.Is the complete page done on the computer? It looks so 3D?happy WOYWW, Vicky #9
Beautiful computer .... I really must indulge but ..... learning is no longer my forte. Talking of which, I envy you learning PS. One program I wanted to learn but never found the time, well done you!!! (and in Spanish! Don't take the easy way do you?!)
Take care and have a good week

Yay for you! The new computer looks awesome! How wonderful that you got CS6! There's a lady with a blog with lots of free photo editing actions and templates. I'm a big fan! Check her out if you like: http://www.thecoffeeshopblog.com/ Great layout - happy scrapping! Much less messy digitally, isn't it? zsuzsa #41
Forgot to say happy birthday! :)
Learning Photoshop in Spanish - well, there's nothing like making things hard for yourself! :-) That's a lovely layout though for all your language struggles!
Happy birthday for next week!

Good luck with the PS - my hubby uses it so I get him to help me - it's not easy is it! Let me know what 65 feels like - I hit it in the Autumn!! x Jo
Happy birthday and congrats on getting photo shop I'd love to play with 6 I only have 3 but make do with what we have how is windows 10 so many places switch back to 7 or 8 hugs Nikki 41
What a great birthday present! I would love to get the Photo 6. I am wanting to do some digital art, but my time is so packed full now, I don't know how to work anything else in. It's on my wish list. I hope you know Spanish! :)
Happy Creating to you and Happy Birthday!!!
Happy birthday and a great gift to for yourself.... Congrats on figuring out your new program and your digital layout looks so good. Hugs ~ Anne L #36
happy birthday - having seen some pictures of you you don't look it! enjoy the digital crafting. helen #1
I am so totally impressed you are doing that in Spanish. ( because, I had the idea that is not your first language) and YAY for a screen big enough to see :) ~Stacy #55
Oh my GOSH! You are amazing....learning PS in SPANISH....gosh! I've got elements [old progam] & can barely do anything with it AT ALL in English! AND your page. I LOOOOOOOVE it! Love those diagonal bits of pp in the corners, ADORE the heart cluster....& the journaling looks fabbo. LOOKING forward very much to you sharing more Digi pages:):)
Happy birthday Lisca for next week. Hope you are enjoying playing with your new toy. Have a great woyww and happy crafting, Angela x 22
Well good for you, I think your getting to do a whole LO without giving up is great! Specially when the instructions are in another language, good grief! I found PElements was everywhere in my computer, but you get used to it. I don't use mine. Too lazy to learn. Love that huge screen, when it comes to viewing, big is better!
Happy Birthday (just in case I don't make it back) I learnt photoshop by phoning my son every day and asking really dumb questions. He is an Architect and uses it for work, so he is quite the genius. LOL Lucky for me he is also VERY patient with his mommy.
Happy WOYWW!

Yes, it was done on the computer. The cluster came with the lesson and was not put together by me. I think with shadows in the right places you can make it look 3D. (But I haven´t got to that stage yet)
No Margaret, I have Windows 7. My computer chappie said not to bother with W10.
Thank you for the link to the coffeeshop blog. It looks very interesting. I have subscribed to it now.
Hi Lisca, it's terrible about poor Julia, isn't it - I do hope the operation sorts the problem once and for all for her. It is a huge worry for both her and her hubby I am sure.
Congratulations on your new computer, and that's a great layout for a first effort. Have a very happy 65th birthday! It's my 63rd this year. Have a lovely day!
Thank you for your lovely comment. My fingers are getting better but it's still quite sore typing just after I've had a practise session! My voice is improving too, so it won't be long before I'm up front in church singing! I'm looking forward to it. Glad you like the new stamps. The stencils will be great for creating backgrounds and adding texture. If you watch the video you can see what people have done with a combination of the stencils and the stamps. We have started clearing clutter out of our sitting room and already there's a huge improvement! We went to Range this a.m. and bought some new cushions which are a great improvement on the tired and worn old ones. Amazing what a difference a little touch can make. Mum is doing OK in the home but she doesn't make it easy or herself because she is always moaning and is horrible to everybody, and then moans that she is lonely!! She is her own worst enemy. She will be 95 in April.
Hope you hsve a great week and enjoy Photoshop!
Happy belated WOYWW,

Happy Birthday! Love that screen. I'd love a large monitor once the office set up. I love your layout! I wish I had time for the learning curve of digital scrapping. If I find the time I'm going for Indie publishing instead LOL Creative Blessings! Kelly #53
I know the feeling! I bought a new computer two months ago.
Your digital layout is great!
Happy birthday!
