    For several years I really enjoyed digital scrapbooking, and I considered The LilyPad my home base. Then, we adopted 3 kids, I finished my degree, got a new job, and (the nail in the coffin) moved to a new house. Recently I’ve been looking at it all again and it’s got me thinking... maybe. Maybe I will find the time. Maybe I will make some time. Maybe I will try this again. Time will tell. I’ve been playing a bit and I realize that in the past 6 years of nothing, I’ve pretty much forgotten everything. So yeah. If anyone has PS keyboard shortcuts for Mac for basic things that would be awesome ;) Command-Z is about all I recall right now. Anyway... hello!

    Hello Heather and welcome back.
    You've had some huge life changes, wow.
    Great to have you here, even if you gain some inspiration and a few more tricks.

    Welcome back Heather.
    I hope you do find time to create some pages to share with us. I am sure you would have lots of photos from what has been happening in your life.

    Welcome back!

    I have windows so not sure for Mac but I like Ctrl (maybe it's the command key?) + J to duplicate a layer ;)

    Hope to see your pages again soon! Have fun! And you should definitely make time. We always say "I don't have time", me first, but truly we just don't make the time. Especially for fun things ;)

    Welcome back. If you were on PS before I think it'll come back to you fairly quickly.

    Welcome back Heather!

    It looks like Cheryl's got you covered with PS keyboard shortcuts. Everyone here is super friendly, so just ask and someone usually comes along with the correct answer. :giggle

    Oh my goodness, to say you've had your hands full is a big understatement! So glad you've made your way back!

    My most used shortcuts are:
    COMMAND-J to duplicate a layer
    V to select the arrow tool
    COMMAND-ALT-G to clip to the layer underneath
    COMMAND-SHIFT-[ to move the layer to the top
    COMMAND-SHIFT-] to move the layer to the top
    COMMAND-[ to move the layer up by one
    COMMAND-] to move the layer down by one

    Welcome back! Holy moly it sounds like life has been keeping you extra busy! I hope you have a chance to fit scrapping into your schedule, if only just a bit here and there. Our stories sound similar... I scrapped for years, and then life got hectic and busy. I stepped away from scrapping, and now I'm back and trying to get into a groove again. Like you, I found that I have lost the details of so many moments and memories for the years I was away. I am hoping to prevent that going forward. Maybe we can encourage each other!! Glad you're here!
