HELP!

[mom of 6 kids]

I must be making this harder than it seems. I have managed to teach myself everything in PSE (I'm using 5 right now), but I cannot figure out how to use a layout template, like these:

Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.

THANK YOU!!!!

I'm by no means a template expert, but I use pse also, and what you need to do is open the layered file, and then pick papers/photos for the various layers. When you've picked your paper that you would like a certain shape to be, just drag the paper on to the layered template file and layer it directly OVER the shape, then just hit ctr + g and it will "group it" with the shape, cropping it don't to the size of the layer on the template...

I hope that gets you started.... any advanced template techniques will have to come from other actual template users LOL because i think i've made a total of two pages with templates :)

Good luck!

That's basically it, Shawna! :)

Also just wanted to add that Suzy and I both include step-by-step instructions for creating a page with the templates in the file download.

Let us know how it goes!
