Basic Scrap – lessons | Scrapbook Campus

The lessons are grouped in
units, and each unit ends with a suggested "homework". The assignments are
definitely not mandatory, but remember that using tools and techniques requires
practice. Using PaintShop Pro is no
different. The more often you use the tools and techniques, the easier they will
become.

If you want to work on a
single project, you can start directly from the first unit. Gather your photos
and some digital supplies and you will be good to go. You have the possibility
to go through the whole course while working on one single project or create
layouts randomly, as the inspiration hits. Although the first pages would be
pretty basic, you can always come back to them later, as you learn to use new
tools, and add to them.

Because the lessons are organized along a progression, it is strongly recommended that you view them in order, but again, if you want to
focus particularly on one tool, you surely can watch only the videos of the
unit. Simply click
on the Unit links to view the tutorials. All the videos and pdf handouts will be
accessible on the same page
