I'm a complete PhotoShop newby. I wouldn't have even been able to open a new document if it wasn't for Amanda Taylor's beginner's tutorial, so a big thank you to Amanda. You can find her blog here.

The title and photo image I managed to do using the tutorial from August/September's Digital Scrapbooking magazine which you can find here.
The fonts are Impact and Lainie Day and the background paper is Taylormade's Casually Blending in paper kit. As a first attempt I couldn't be happier with them.
I'm convinced, if I can do it anyone can do it. Let me know if you give it a try.
Now I've found myself with several files for one layout - a psd file, a high res jpeg file, a low res jpeg file and a jpeg in 4x6 borderless photo format coz that's the only photo paper I had to hand and just couldn't wait to print it out - Eeekkk, that's FOUR files for one layout???
How am I gonna keep track of all this stuff? I'm off to try and find some info on file organization.
Thanks for reading,
Kx
