Who would like a free issue of Bella Scraps Magazine?

Robin has generously allowed me to give away two copies of the September issue in which our very own SeattleSheri has her first layout published! Two kits from Natali Design and Bren Boone Design, great tips and hybrid projects, wonderful layout inspiration are also included.

To win, please reply with what tips or techniques, other than shadowing and extraction, you would like to see. Bear in mind, these will be written for the just starting out digi scrapper using PSE, but will try to be as every-program, everybody as possible.

Two winners will be chosen randomly and be posted on Tuesday, September 30th. Thanks for playing along!

[amystoffel]

Oh wow! How cool! I would like to know how to create templates, layer grouping, and also....more about photography for beginners!!!

[Voodoo_Bryn]

I would really really like to know how to get text on distressed paper and make it look like it's really been written on there.
and... pretty much how to get text to look like ink... not so solid. (and yes, I know about playing with the dang blending modes!! grah)

Just... more realistic looking journaling.

that is all.

[Tracie Stroud]

Thanks for the chance! I'd love to learn more about "bending" paper, like corners.

[tlcaudle]

Hmm, if I was a beginner what would I like to know. I don't think this is much of a technique, but I would like to know what makes a good layout. Like what to do and what not to do when making a layout.

[Di-ahh]

For a beginner PSE user? How about how to load and use actions.

[DawnMarch]

I'd love to learn more about how to alter fonts -- like how to make letters that are more like alphas.

[Brooke W]

I'd love to learn how to install actions and plugins as well.

[dst212 (Daniela)]

I'd love to see new techniques with fonts and photo treatment!

[juliemarie]

I would like to see some reviews of the different photobook printing places - such as shutterfly, artscow.

[suzann]

How about information on brushes. How to install, techniques, tips, ideas, etc.

[breakingbrie]

Hmm, if I was newer to scrapping, I'd want to learn about text paths(how to make and how to use) and also clipping! LOL, clipping was something I didn't learn for a loooong time after I was using cs2, and that would have been a huge help to have known sooner! And this isn't a tut idea, but as a beginner, I was always searching for shortcut commands! They save me a ton of time!

[stayawake]

I would Love to learn how to create a vignette treatment of a photo, or how to do a killer black and white conversion...
