Thank you, Ladies!! Carole, you were correct. I had to copy and paste an apostrophe and it was a tiny selection I made. Whenever I would slide one of the layers to my workspace to get the image, it came back as a tiny little thing. I couldn't figure out what the heck that was. It's all fixed now.

I did duplicate the vector text and then convert to raster. The drop shadow did work on the text. I don't understand what happened, but this is what I did. I started clicking on all the paper layers and there are four of them plus the background. When I did that with the pick tool, it highlighted in the layer panel, but on my canvas it showed the pick tool always right in the center of the page and I tried to rotate it or move it and I got that symbol of a red circle with a slanted line. The void mark maybe? Anyways, I'm really stumped. The different layers are actually highlighting in the layer panel, but I can't do anything to the layer itself. I closed the image multiple times and opened and closed PSP a few times. I'm going to reconstruct the whole page one piece at a time now. Now I'm thinking maybe there is something up with the template I'm using. I did duplicate the template before I began, so I still have the original. Hmmm...I don't know if I had a little selection. Going to check that now too.

Hi Everyone, I ran into a problem. I just completed a page and now it's time to add drop shadows to all the papers and elements and photos. What I do is start at the top of the layer panel and just go down and add the shadows not on a separate layer. At the top of the layer panel was my text and I had to add a shadow because I used a light grey text on a dark paper and the shadow did work on the text. I added a shadow to two elements and it worked. Now it's my photo's turn and I add the shadow and nothing. I then clicked the add shadow to a separate layer just to see what would happen and nothing happends. I proceeded to try other paper layers that were under the photo and no shadow will apply. I tried another element and nothing. I reset my drop shadow to default which is 10, 10, 50 opac and 5 blur and tried the papers again and it just will not apply. Any suggestions? Has this happened to anyone before? Thank you, Em

Very creative, Sheila!

The kit I used for this one was called The Winter Solstice by Jessica Dunn.

Awesome job on this one!

Take care of yourself and your husband, Doska. Prayers are with both of you.

I used The Small Wonder Blog Train minikits.

Thank you, Ladies, for nudging my memory on this!! I had Font Viewer on my external HD which I set up. Now I have everything working in PSP as you both explained to me. 🙂

Hope I can still post this since it's not October anymore, but I needed to try my hand at this lifted photo. I find it interesting, but not that easy to do for me. I forgot to add that the kit I used was from a collaborative kit that I got quite a few years ago. It is called A Mother's Heart.

I can't remember how this is done and I'm hoping someone can help me. My fonts are pretty much standard ones that came with my computer plus the 50 I received with the purchase of PSP 2023. How can I use a font in PSP that is not actually installed on my computer? I have a large file of fonts that I saved from my old computer.

Carole, thank you so much for having these classes. I hate to see it end. They really helped me a lot. And what a great bunch of people you all are too. 🙂 Here is my last Lesson 11. Thanks for looking.
