    Hi Everyone.. here I am again with another fun tutorial!

    Create a realistic traveler's notebook in Photoshop CC for your scrapbooking layouts - Begin with Travelers Notebook Templates and use shadows, shapes and a black to transparent gradient to complete the look.

    I did these video tutorials after creating several pages with @Soco Soco's Traveler's No 1 templates and her April BYOC's It's the Little Things Collection.

    Here are a few pages I made with the Soco's Templates and the Little Things Collection:

    This works for all Traveler's Notebooks that you may have in your stash and in the store.

    I hope you enjoy the tutorials and learn a few things. While they may be a little long, they are packed with wonderful information to help you make wonderful realistic books that look like hybrid, only done digitally!!! I can't wait to see what you create:

    For Photoshop:


    For PSE:


    I can't wait to see your pages!!!

    Thank you Donna! It looks really hard but it really isn't. It takes longer to explain than actually doing it!!
