Working With Digital Pictures
This workshop will help you take those digital photos you have stored 'somewhere' on your computer and start using them! You will be given tips on filing and organizing your digital photos, how to rename, tag, file, resize, crop, and make them usable for all kinds of projects. Never done any editing before? Then this is the workshop for you. You will be introduced to a free program called Picasa that will help you become a wiz at editing. No more dark photos or red eyes. You'll even be able to turn your favorites into black and white or classic sepia.  Make a reservation and you will be contacted by the instructor to help customize the class to be just what you need.
Supplies needed: bring your laptop if available. If not, you will be able to share the computer in the classroom and get some hands on experience. When you register, you will be emailed instructions for downloading Picasa to your computer prior to the workshop.
Daytime workshop options:
Wednesdays, July 2 or 16 from 2-4
Wednesday evening, July 9 from 6:30 - 8:30

Photoshop Elements 5.0 Basic Intro Class
July 23
$25
1-4pm


If you have Photoshop Elements software and would like to learn how to get started, then this is the class for you! We will start at the very beginning and have fun understanding how it all works. When you complete this class, you will be able to create your own simple digital page layout. You will learn how to import your pictures, how to layer pics on a background, apply shadows, add text and elements to your page that make it look realistic. Whether you enjoy hybrid scrapbooking or you're interested in going totally digital, this class will help you begin to utilize your software and will give you tons of resources, tutorial sites, and links to lots of freebies to download and begin using right away on your layouts!

*There are no supplies needed for this class, however if you have PSE on a laptop, you will benefit greatly by bringing your computer and following along as we go.  If you are unable to bring a laptop, then you will be able to watch the demonstration and 'take turns' with other class members as we practice using the tools in Photoshop Elements on the computer in the crop room. 

Here are a couple samples of simple digital layouts that were created using PSE 5.0. 
With practice, you'll be cranking out pages like this in no time!

Photo Transfer Technique and 1 page layout
6:36-8:35
$15

Tired of the same old way of scrapbooking?  Wish you could change up your pages and add a fresh new look?  Now you can, thanks to the magic of photo transfer. A photo transfer is quite simply the transfer of an image from the orginal to another medium.  Your final result is a semi-transparent image you can use anywhere on your page.  

We will make a  1 page layout to put our transfered image on.  You get to coose the patterned paper and title of your page. 

You will need to bring at least 3 photos that have been professionally processed or bring in your digital camera card and we can print them here.  Inkjet printouts will not work with this technique.  More questions just call us at 830-779-2227.
