Get to know your Digital Scrapbooking program

There are many programs out there that people use to digital scrapbook. I have memory mixer but, I never use it. I have gotten comfortable with Photoshop and Photoshop Elements so that is what I use. I hope that any newbies out there will just try to mess around in Photoshop. You will be amazed at the things you can do with it. From fixing photos to creating fun craft projects. You will wonder how you ever got by without it (or a similar graphics program). So I thought today that I would post a tutorial that I made for Photoshop Elements. I usually scrap with Photoshop Elements 6--I just like the set up and the ease of the program. So, on with the tutorial.

Photoshop Elements Getting Started Tutorial

Now there are many ways of doing things and opening files into Photoshop. These are just a few that I use. So play around and get creative.
