This a great layout! I love the way you did the extraction (another thing I can't do in Print Shop! I'm gettin' jealous, I tellya LOL!) This will be wonderful to take out & show them in a few years when they're fighting ;-)

JUDGE - Your grandkiddos are so cute! Great job on the extraction, and you know, this can be one of the hardest things to shadow. The shadow on the extraction looks really good. The ones on the frames... I can't quite place my finger on it - your angles are consistent with the extracted shadow, but something seems a little off with the frames. Are they too short? I would try and stretch it out a bit and see what happens. It could be just me - will be interesting to see what the other judges have to say. But I love the composition and the sweetness of this layout - very nice.

I love the shadow on the extraction but personally wouldn't put the same shadow on the photos/frames because they are flat on a surface, or if you are trying to make them stand up... then make your shadow much shorter... (lower to the surface) since your shadow on the extraction is short.

judge: great extraction and the shadow with is look fab. The shadows on the frames doesn't seem right. They have a shadow as if the are tilted, but not quit right if that makes sense. since your light source is somewhere in the left corner try to make longer so that you get a shadow on the top and at the right

I know the frames should be flat on the paper but I kinda like the photos titling out.

JUDGE- I really like the look of lifted photos & frames, but I don't think I would have lifted those photos quite so much. Try bringing the top edge of the shadow up a little, so it's just a bit lower than the top of the frame & see what you think. You did a GREAT job shadowing the ribbons & bows!

I'm not important but I think the shadow on the frames looks funny because it's not as far to the right as the extraction. The light is coming from a different angle. But love the layout! It made me get a big smile, too!

JUDGE - What an outstanding job with very difficult drop shadow perspective to master. I do agree though on the frame shadows. I personally would like them better with a more typical shadow on them, but that's a personal choice. This whole layout is just darling though - how DID you get all those kids to smile so sweetly???

What Beautiful Grandchildren and Perfect Photos I agree... how did you get them to smile soooo nicely? Aren't Grandchildren the best?! I Love the extraction and shadows too but also noticed how you used the Ribbon, Bow, and Flower across the frames... very clever Good Luck!
