    I edited the leading - only option on PSE 13

    I experimented with all four techniques, but mostly adjusted leading for the journaling, and I changed horizontal and vertical scale for the title.

    I like technique challenges, one can always learn something new. I adjust the leading and tracking a lot on my pages, but i never used the horizontal and vertical scales, actually I didn't even know what they were for until now :)

    I changed the leading of my journaling so it fits the white text rectangles.

    this one was really hard for me because I use Creative Memories Storybook, and I had no clue what you were talking about. However, I played around and actually found that while it might not be exactly what you were going for, I was able to fit my font onto a journal card without reducing the font size, which both surprised me and excited me! LOL

    Here's my page for the challenge

    and here is my page without the spacing. I a lot of people are telling you what they did, but I'm not sure how to say it. I changed my number from 1/32 to 1. LOL whatever that means. And you can see that the font is the same font, the size is the same, but it doesn't fit on my journal card! That was a great find!!

    I used the Leading to space my text to fit the space at the bottom of the page. Thank I learned something new.

    I have PSE and adjusted the leading to line up my font with the journaling card.

    I make adjustments to text so often that I forget to reset everything back to normal!
    For "Summer Is Here" I adjusted the Horizontal Scale to 119% and the Height to 88%. For the journaling I adjusted the leading to 19 pt so the text would fit the lines of the journal card.

    I'm on PSE so I adjusted the leading on my text to fit the spacing of the lines to journal.

    I found this challenge extremely helpful! I'm switching from PSCS2 to PSE8 (hoping to upgrade to PSE14 soon). Since I'm in software I'm not familiar with, I went hunting for tutorials! :) Hopefully the learning curve from PSE8 to PSE14 won't be as steep. I adjusted the leading.

    Played with the leading to make my journaling fit on the lined spaces of the journal card.

    I adjusted the tracking and the spacing (I use My Memories Suite - so not a lot of tweaking available).

    I worked on the leading to make the journaling fit on the blacklines of the background paper!

    I increased the leading of the text to better fit in the journaling area.

    Fun challenge! I used Kristin Aagard Fresh Baked and changed the leading and the tracking for the journal card.
