There are many times in digital scrapbooking when you will find a sheet of alphabet letters or a sheet with a combination of different elements. However, you won't want to put the whole sheet on your layout, so what do you do?

Here is an alpha sheet that I have from Color Fall by Shawna Clingerman that I want to use.

I just posted screen shots to show you how I got just the letters I wanted out of the sheet.  If you have a free membership,  you can check it out here.

I've seen a few people asking about a good way to resize and save for uploading on the web without the picture quality getting bad.  If you have PSE and want to check it out, I wrote a tutorial on my fav method:

Hope it can help someone!

Did you know that PSE 10 not only comes with the ability to type text on a path but also allows you to type text within a shape?  I was so excited when I found this out.  This means that you can type to fill a circle or a heart or a bunch of different shapes on your layout.  Check it out here:

I've been working on some new PSE Tool videos.  Check them out here:

Did you know that we have an affiliate program here at Digital Scrapbooking Classes?

Here is how it works:

You sign up for a membership - free or paid.

You then activate your affiliate account and get html code to add to your website, blog, online signature, or wherever.

Whenever someone follows your link and then purchases a class membership, you will be credited 30% of their payment.  Each time they make another payment (renewal or upgrade) you will be credited 10% of their payment.  This affiliate program is for purchases of class memberships only and will not apply to purchases of templates or individual classes in our store.

Between the 15th and 20th of each month, I will send out payments to any affiliate who earned at least $5 in the previous month.  So between Aug 15th and 20th I will send payments for money from July.  If you have less than $5 in your account it will stay until at least $5 is accumulated or you request a payment.

You can always check how your links are doing in your membership account.

Please note that this is an automated link monitoring system and can be slightly different depending on how individuals have their cookie and privacy settings set.  If you feel that there is some error or if you have further questions, please let me know.

Here is a detailed tutorial for you in getting set up as an affiliate.

Just put up a new tutorial - hope you like it!!
