~~ Skippin' & Jumpin' - Pencil-Lines Blog Hop w/giveaway! :) ~~

Posted by Ania On Friday, October 16, 2009
Hey!

Welcome if you're droppin' by because of the Pencil-Lines Blog Hop! :)

Why there's a blog hop? Um why, Pencil-Lines is celebrating having been around for three years and stuff :)

So.
The purpose with this blog hop is to give away stuff to one random winner who comments here....but before I share the details about what&how you can win here I'm totally gonna force ya to look at a layout of mine ;p Or two. Or more.

Well....this is about Pencil-Lines, right?
Figured I'd take you with me on a trip down memory lane....I joined Pencil-Lines sometime late summer 2007, after answering to a DT-call.. :) I remember getting the message via a friend on my cellphone because I was at the summerhouse w/o access to the inet back then - feeling quite a bit antsy because I wasn't able to respond to PL in a few days yet :)


This was one of the layouts I made back then, in 2007 - it's sketch #59. I remember doing my own distressing of the chipboards, applying paint, letting it dry then applying vaseline, painting over it then rubbing it off when dry. Very messy, but really cool. The papers are Rouge de Garance. Striking colors- loves!

2008. Sketch #73. Totally one of my faves. Very very very simple - not really me - not this style of simple sorta. But I like it. Once again - Rouge de Garance :)

Right. Movin' on to 2009 and sketch #120. One of the earliest layouts I did this year. Means a lot to me. Oh and I'm so lovin' the combo of Hambly and Sassafras too :D

This one was made to sketch #121. I love the crispiness of this layout and I totally adore Scenic Route (so sad they're no more :( ).


Last fave, promise :)
(I'd love to fave my next two Pencil-Lines layouts, but I can't really share them yet soooooo ;p)

Love the photo and sorta do like this combo of My Little Shoebox and Hambly (waddayaknow, Hambly goes to anythin' *wink*) :)

Right! Hope you're not too bored now - movin' on to the giveaway! :)

I'm adding three of Hambly Screenprints newest release from CHA Summer - Clear stickers :D Also - lovely clips from 7gypsies, rubons from Luxe Designs and a chipboard-album from Nikki Sivils :)

All you have to do is to drop me a comment below and share a nice photo-trick or tip with me please :) Wheter it's technical or whatever - any nice tip related to taking photos, cameras or post-processing or tips to nice photo-links - basic or advanced - please just share :)

You'll have until Sunday 12pm - I'll draw and announce a winner on monday.

Now it's time to travel to Japan and the next one on the Blog Hop List - Yuko! :D Good luck!

Ps! Hmmmmm while I got your attention - The Studio has been inspired by Cathy Zielske's campagin for charity:water, and is arranging a 48-hour online-event to raise money for the cause. I'll quote the site:

Starting at 7pm (GMT) on Friday 13th November we will be hosting a BIG scrapbooking event. It will last for 48 hours and there will be games, challenges, special guests and PRIZES! A new challenge will be posted every 2 hours for the whole weekend! It wouldn’t be much of an event without a grand finale and we certainly have one of those lined up. Cathy Z herself will be setting the final challenge and I, for one, am pretty excited about that.
For more information - feel free to drop by The Studio and click on the CHARITY EXTRAGAVANZA- link on the top of the page. There's more info there plus several guests and awesome sponsors listed. And oh, yeah, I'm one of the guests *smile* Hope to see you there too! :)

    Make sure you have spare batteries is my tip - and as that's a bit of a cheat, how about taking photos at several angles - quite often it's the tilted ones that look great on a page.

    My tip for you is to play with the macro or the close up feature on your camera. Not only can you take great flower photos or bugs, it can work well for taking face pictures.

    Once in a while print pictures larger than 5x7 for your scrapbook pages. Let the photos do most of the work of your layout especially if they are landscape & gorgeous. A great web site for printing larger pictures is www.scrapbookpictures.com. Reasonable prices. Good size options. Great prints. Hope this helps!

    Flotte LO'er :-)

    Mitt beste tips om dagen er å ta bildene i manuell...måle lyset på auto, stille inn og så ta dem manuelt (M)....blir herlige farger da. Tar dem alltid i RAW, åpner i PS og endrer dem til svart/hvitt der om jeg vil det..da blir det skikkelig svart/hvitt bilder...ikke bare en haug med gråtoner.

    Use your hambly overlays! Put a piece of coloured plastic over the flash for a fun, coloured effect on a picture. Or smear some (just a tad) vaseline on the lens for a dreamy look. Remember to wipe it off afterwards though...

    If you are photographing a child, try getting on a chair and shooting the camera down on them or get real low and shoot up. These pics always turn out nice. Also, sometimes purposefully angle your camera and get a nice professional looking photo. I really like that giveaway by the way!!

    I like your layouts...I don't have really great tips to share. Just something that I always do, when photographing young children, I will just take out my camera and continue snapping, sometimes from different angle. With this, I can be assured that I have at least a few that really works (since young children moves a lot) and these may come in handy for multi-photo layouts.

    okay, since I am not a great photographer (wish I was), I'll leave you with the one tip/trick that is tried and true:

    READ YOUR CAMERAS MANUAL! If that doesn't work so well, revert to the internet and google your cameras make/model!

    A couple of tips...Remember the rule of thirds when photographing. Don't put your subject dead center in the photo. Also, be conscious of the background. You want to make sure there aren't things "growing" out of your subject's head! Finally...last tip...If your camera is able to...always shoot in RAW and get a copy of Lightroom!

    Enjoy reading this post. Love your layouts!! I can use some photo tips too. Mine would be... just make sure to check the pics you just took. With digital cameras, you can check the photos as you take them. So if you don't like a particular photo, make sure to take some more until you get at least one you like.

    Fun blog hop! My tip is nothing original, but it's to use natural lighting if you can. Then play with the highlights and lowlights in your photo editing software until you get it just right.

    Love your work! I only discovered Pencil Lines that past year, so I hadn't seen your earlier projects - thanks for sharing your talent w/ us.
    Now about a tip: read your camera manual! Sounds simple, but I discovered some settings on my point-and-shoot that I didn't even know were there!
    Thanks for the chance to win...and happy birthday, Pencil Lines! :D

    Happy Birthday!
    My tip for a steady hand is to exhale half and than stop breathing for the shot. So you´re relaxed for the moment. Works for me :)

    My tip is to GET CLOSE. Fill the frame with the subject. Use either the portrait setting if you're more than 18 inches away or the macro setting if you're closer.

    Also read your manual and use it like a workbook - practice each thing it tells you about. It's like taking a free photography course. Let your camera do the work for you!

    I always take my camera everywhere with extra batteries & extra memory card :) Also, shoot different angles (sometimes up high looking down, other times down looking up, etc)

    Gorgeous LOs. I'm definitely returning to look at those two you can't show us yet :)

    My tip is when you've downloaded your digi photos onto your laptop, go through them as soon as possible and decide which are useable, then delete/file away somewhere else all the others (until you're ready to delete them ;) )

    Always take more than one shot- the first one is hardly likely to be perfect

    One of my tips is...you need to make sure you look for incredible lighting when you are trying to catch certain looks. For a bright fun picture try early in the morning, but not pointing directly at sun, move away from the sun.

    Oh and for kid shots, get on their level, get their angel of life.

    Get on the same level as your subject... I've been so much more happy with my kids' pictures since I started doing this, vs. looking at them through the camera at my typical vantage point. If they're on the floor, get down there with them!! :)
