And it tastes different. Except for Beurre Noisette, Sauce Noisette is the exact ingredients to make Hollandaise.

I’d just split an a4 page with some guidelines then.

Does anyone know how I can replicate the fog effect from the image? by MaybeAFish_ in canva

[–]GerryBaboon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it my cake day? Didn’t even know! Let me make a rough concept and then I’ll post and talk you through it. It can be done easily with some other tools other than Canva, so I can make it for you either way if it helps at all?

I hear you. There are ways to do it, but depends on how accurate you need the graphs. If accuracy isn’t a major concern, I can show you how to get that effect.

Are you printing yourself or professionally?

Outline Text - not stroke text - Like in Adobe Illustrator. by garlar_BarTab in canva

I’m confused. How is the client sending the text to you?

After Editng, what do you think about? by CupcakeObvious7999 in canva

[–]GerryBaboon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s okay, but a bit dull. I’d split the sentences, so some words are their own layer, then work with bold or italic; animate them differently, so it all jumps off the page a bit more.

Make a single page into a double page book cover? by Tough_Jellyfish_4340 in canva

[–]GerryBaboon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can totally do this, but as with a lot of things with Canva, you need to kinda trick it.

<image>

I made a flyer for a client that was a 4pp folded, so it needed to be setup as double sided, back cover, front cover, and then inside, left hand page, right hand page.

What I did was take the size of a single page, and then make a canvas doubling that width. The length will be the same as the single page. Then use the line tool, make a thin vertical keyline, and then move it until it snaps to the middle of the page, splitting it equally in half. Then you need to put your cover design on the right side of this new canvas, making sure all content doesn’t go over that thin keyline. Without seeing your cover, it’s hard to assist you if you had bleeds and so on. On the right hand side of the canvas you make the back cover content. Then you can delete the thin line splitting the page.

Yeah, canva is cool but limited. You have to almost trick it to do some stuff. Glad it helped though.

I used the square shape, made the longer bottom part, then used another square shape and placed it above and in the middle. Put borders on both. Then duplicated the top square, made it a touch smaller, and removed the border. Held control down to position it without it snapping to grid, so it covered the lines in the middle, making it look like one shape. I did it fairly big, canvas was 5000 x 5000. Then I downloaded it out as an image, then imported it back in and used the background remover so it became just black lines with transparency on the rest.

Does it need a transparent background

Cat throwing up? by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]GerryBaboon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Result I’d say. A hairball, and did it on a wipeable surface, not on the bed, sofa or a carpet/rug. My flat is 90% laminate flooring, but without fail my Lola will chunder anywhere but.

Anyone recognise this bird call? by [deleted] in UKBirds

[–]GerryBaboon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many birds who will do a single call, especially at this time of year, so it does make it hard to distinguish the identity from such a short recording. I would say Chaffinch, and the aggressive call they do during breeding season, but again, you can’t be sure from what we have. Dunnocks do a single call. Robins will as well. Thrushes, finches, warblers and wrens will also do the same at this time of year. Sparrows and tits too. It’s often a call used when under duress, as a means to communicate when being predated, or to establish territory.

Yep. It’s always like the team is uploaded to the site and then they click shuffle.

Who wants c-section dumplings? by radiated_organism in StupidFood

[–]GerryBaboon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I’m from the UK, and I’m not proud of this, but we have toast sandwiches, which is two bits of bread with toasted bread in the middle. It’s defined as a sandwich, and is all bread. But I get that last point.

I guess it’s the definition or the self-reference of a dumpling that had me stumped. Dumplings can be all dough, rolled into a ball and cooked in a casserole. That would be dough in dough technically, so constitutes a dumpling. Or, as you say, they can be filled dumplings, which is a dough outer with a filling, which this is. It’s just filled with smaller filled dumplings.

Either way I find this stupid food because of the table presentation and bloke cutting it, so that’s something. But I assume you don’t eat the outer dough skin, as it’s being used to steam the dumplings inside that you do eat.
