When relating stories, wishes, dreams or journeys, it is common not to have any photo of the object, location, or event in question. What can you do? Do you skip that story because of lack of imagery? I hope not. You know you can have an interesting layout without using any image at all, however, maybe you want your layout to add a little visual to the story. Let’s look at a few possible solutions for this issue.
Do you have a family tradition for New Year? Do you have particular memories about New Year celebrations in the past?
On New Year day, we would always go to my great-grand-mother. That was a long trip (for me) as it was one hour drive from home. I would usually see Mémère only a couple of times a year, and New Year was one of those times.
Graphic designers often consider Photoshop as a standard in the industry. Is it because it is better? I am sure that Adobe users will say yes. Often, whoever will argue their program is better, tends to be very familiar and comfortable with the one they use and will always find the second one less intuitive and less convenient to use. That is normal. If someone works with a particular graphics program for their daily work, they will keep using it outside work, because of their familiarity with it.
Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, chances are that you have encountered this red-dressed man.
What stories can you share about this character, or whatever event surrounded his presence?
Are you joining the journey of “Remember when…?” Great. If you are familiar with scrapbooking (digital or traditional), you know that it is fun to start with templates or sketches, simply to get the inspiration going. But you might wonder where to go in order to find templates that might be suitable for story telling, instead of photo displaying. Let’s look at a few possible options.
Scrapbooking has long been about documenting memories, using whatever we have on hand: a photo, a lock of hair, a newspaper clipping, etc. Over time, with the availability of smartphones, and other portable devices, people have been taking more and more pictures to capture memories and stories. This is great when you want to document recent events, people you met in the last years, and activities you did recently.
Even if you have thousands of pictures stored on your phone, your tablet or your computer, your memories are not limited to those people and events captured in photos.
PaintShop Pro is a graphics program that will allow you to create an array of projects, for yourself and for others. There is so much that one can do with this program but in a busy time, like the holidays, using some time-saving tools can give us a breather. Let’s look at 10 scripts you can use to complete your projects faster.
All the scripts listed below are available at Creation Cassel store and will work on any version of PaintShop Pro that you have.
It is common knowledge that traditional paper scrapbooking can be (and usually is) a pretty expensive hobby with all the tools and supplies needed to even just start. For that reason, some scrapbookers have turned to digital scrapbooking. However, we can often hear comments that it might cost just as much, while just taking less space. Who is right? In fact, it is not the hobby itself that can be less expensive, but how the user approaches it. Let’s have a look at ways to make the digital hobby less expensive than its traditional counterpart.
A lot of graphic artists using PaintShop Pro have complained, over the years that Photoshop users have access to more resources. Maybe that is true, but did you know that PaintShop Pro users can sneak up on many of those Photoshop goodies? Let’s see what PSP users are NOT missing.
Whether you have great photos, or a creative layout, you can share them by email with your friends or families. This is a common option, but have you ever considered something totally different?
