I was doing a layout with a purchased kit for a challenge on another site but it was missing an element I really wanted for the layout. So I came here and found that Carole had done a tutorial for that element! Plastic Canvas | Scrapbook Campus

These are the metallic word charms I made for the Build-A-Kit Workshop. Tutorial from Lab 9, Module 9. Lab Module 9-09 | Scrapbook Campus

Another element from the Build-A-Kit Workshop. I made a custom tag from Lab 8, Module 11. I added a word to it by doing a simple cutout from a selection from the text vector. Lab 8 – Module 11 | Scrapbook Campus

Another Build-A-Kit element. These were done using the Metallic element tutorial. Metallic element | Scrapbook Campus

I used the Linoleum pattern tutorial to make several papers for the Build-A-Kit workshop. This is one of them. Linoleum Pattern | Scrapbook Campus

I used the tutorial for the bracket frame and filled it with papers I made in the Build-A-Kit workshop to make these paper mats. Lab Module 10-03 | Scrapbook Campus

? I did find it on my own but it took me forever!

Focus on her words in quotes.

I knew the answer to #9, just couldn't find it!

We would do this too. Even with holes punched in the lids for air, they wouldn't light up that long so we would usually let them go when they started "dimming".

When looking at it up close, it did look puffy but then it looked cutout for me. If I look at the shadowing especially on the R, I can see that it is cutout. But if I look more at the right side of the letters (the B) it appears more puffy. Looking back on the full layout, it does look more puffy but it looks great either way!

I just started a trip my cousin's daughter took with her family last Thanksgiving to Iceland. She posts the photos on Facebook and I download to use in layouts. It appears most of them are going to be portrait instead of landscape (think she used her phone) so will have to look for templates that have more portrait spots than landscape. But most of my templates have landscape spots! Just last night I used a template with landscape spots and rotated it to make them portrait. There were 2 smaller spots that were more square and I did have 2 photos that worked in those spots. I've gotten to the point that I use templates as a starting point and by the end, they quite often they don't even look like the template!

I'm not doing the workshop but I will offer this suggestion... Rotate the template to fit your photos! A template is just a starting point and does not have to be used exactly as is. Loving all the layouts from everyone so far!

15 years ago one of the girls on a scrapbooking forum I was a member of was getting married. I was a good friend of hers and was invited to the wedding. Another member was a bridesmaid and yet another was the photographer. I took another girl as my "plus one". I don't remember who started it but someone suggested we make "stick people" of other members so that they could attend the wedding. A photo of each person was sent to one of us and they were attached to fudgsicle sticks and showed up at the wedding reception! The bride loved it and we had fun with it. 12 of the forum members sent photos, some were of the whole family and others were just the individual. By the end of the evening, some of them were being used as hand held fans since it was a late August wedding!

That is a possibility if you are sharing the same Microsoft account and have all the computers sync. I have different preferred settings for my desktop and laptop (like background photos etc) and when I set up my new laptop but used the same Microsoft account and it was set to "sync automatically", everything on my desktop changed to the setting I had on my laptop. Once I turned the ability for it to sync off, I have had no problems. So if your husband has sync set up and he uses one drive, it may be why yours is doing it as well. I would look into that but I'm not an expert so can't say for sure that is what is happening. I still prefer to use either DropBox, an USB drive or an external hard drive to transfer any information between my computers. That way I am in control.

Do you have an account set up on their website? All of your keys are available there. Every product I have purchased since 2008 shows up on the list.

I've had many different versions of PSP installed on both a desktop and a laptop at the same time. I don't have as many versions as Carole but every version I have had has been on both and it has never been a problem. Like Carole I mainly use the desktop but for a few years I would go to scrapbook retreats with my laptop so it was needed to be installed. Never been an issue. I think at one time I had a version installed on a desktop and 2 different laptops since I had gotten a new laptop and wanted to make sure everything was working OK.

I always say I've lot my "mojo" when I don't scrap for awhile (unless there are extenuating circumstances for not doing it).

You can turn OneDrive completely off but if you use the sync settings, it will turn back on. I had problems with my new laptop not letting me into my dropbox account because it had me going to a dropbox account that was linked to through onedrive. I had to unlink onedrive to get to my dropbox account I've used for a long time. I followed these instructions (found here) : 1. Open OneDrive settings (select OneDrive cloud icon in your notification area, and then select the OneDrive Help and Settings icon, then Settings 2. Go to the Account tab. 3. Select Unlink this PC If those don't work, try the other suggestions at the link I posted above.

I use Edge as my browser so my way might be different than yours. I highlight the text, right click and one of the options is to translate to English. No needing to go to google and enter the text.

And then there is me who has absolutely no folders for setup files for any version (X7, X8, 2021 or 2023).

I always buy directly from Corel and if I remember right, I get an email with links to the different files to download. On my end, I create a folder in my Downloads file and put all the files in there. I still have the folders for older versions of the program. Then I just have to figure out on my own which files need to be installed. They should really put an instruction document that tells what all the files are for in the downloads. I mean, look how many of us didn't realize we had the fonts with our 2023 purchase!

@Cassel In all of the versions of PSP that I have had over the years, there has never been a folder for Setup Files like you have. I have the 2021 and the 2023 versions that you show as having them. You say it is created when you run the "First" installer. I have always just had one installer file to run to install the program.

@Susan Ewart I was talking about any new stuff to PSP2023. I know about all the old stuff since I have my own toolbar that I use (and set up in each new version). I just want to make sure that I have everything that came in the update since even doing the steps they recommend, the haze feature did not show up. And, from the list of enhancements, I can't tell what would be new to the various menus. That's what I want to know... is there new stuff in the menus. This brain fog I've had recently has really messed me up and I need things explained in lots of detail! Hope it goes away after surgery.

Not Suzy but I tried several different times to use a font viewer. It just never seemed to work for me. And, I'm quite boring with the fonts I use so having minimal fonts has worked out great for me. LOL Also, the last computer I had I wouldn't have been able to use the font viewer. It got to the point that I couldn't even have Picasa open when I was using PSP2021. The computer would freeze all the time. I think there was a gremlin in that computer because it wasn't that old and had plenty of horsepower to run the programs.
