October 2012 STS Road Trip

Road Trip!!!! The theme this month was "The Big City."

I've created two alphas this month. "City Skyline" lines up to create a really neat skyline effect along your border. I'm working on a scrap page of pictures I took recently in Bruges and it looks really cool with this alpha! I included blank buildings if you want to use them as elements, as well. The "Rush Hour" alpha was so much fun to make! I spent ages working on the cars, which I built by tracing basic shapes from pictures of cars and stacking them up until I had a complete vehicle. Then I added textures to make them look more "scrapbooky" (new word there) and colored them to match up with the Road Trip palette. I think I'll be offering a recolor of this alpha soon, as I would like it more with a wider color range. This alpha is really 5 alphas in one, as I included the complete alpha on each vehicle so you can mix and match as you like. Again, I included the blank vehicles for use as elements if you so desire. And I also included a handy road for you to line them all up on! It seems like these two alphas took ages to complete, they were both complicated in one way or the other. I'm really happy with how they turned out, though! I hope you all enjoy them! The papers I included are notable only because I used pictures I took as textures, so that was kind of fun to work with. I've been snapping "texture" pictures everywhere I go lately!

And I love to use textural photos of my own as backgrounds, so I love your papers - the pebbles are great, and whatever did you photograph to get that waffley texture? You amaze me - keep it up! Thank you so MUCH for sharing your hard work!!

    2. Oh, and to answer your question - the waffly texture was along the edge of the public pool. I was taking pictures of my daughter swimming with her papa and my lens strayed a bit, lol!

  9. Didn't get the rest of the road trip but that's okay, I'm very selective anyway. Really like the 'city skyline', the road and the textured paper. Thanks so much for sharing!
