    I have a quick tip to reconfigure scatters on your layout pages. Sometimes when using a scatter or a sequinned scatter element, a portion of the scatter I may need to move around as it isn't working on my page. Instead of duplicating the element and masking out, deleting or erasing out a portion of the scatter, you can do this technique to reconfigure it on your page easily.

    Hope you enjoy the fun tip and find it helpful!! :)

    :goldstars Really useful, and you do explain in a way that is very easy to understand . Love your note pad !
    Now I know I am pushing it a bit,( I have an excuse, because at the last big windows update fail I lost all my links to tutorials :yup ) but could you possibly show how to use the texturizer … sometime... when you are not busy....:whip:hehe
    Thanks again for this one.

    I like to use textures other than what is the default, and I know that there is a way of doing that, because I did it before following a tutorial. But I can not remember how.. I mean the texturizer in the filter menu ; Texture > texturizer then on the page the little arrow shows 2 options, a texture or load a texture. when I try to load a texture ( like a photo of bark of a tree for example, not a bought designer one ( don't have any of those as far as I know ) it says not available even if I am clicking on it. I know there is a step I have to do before, but ??? Anyway thank you again.

    Christa @cfile - Thanks for the great tip! I've used it on wordart in the past and will remember to use it on scatters. I usually duplicate the scatters and delete or mask out the portions I don't want.

    Christa, @cfile you already know how I feel about your tutorials! I agree with what everybody else has said. You just have a knack for explaining things and you never make them more complicated than they need to be! I find this, so often, with other things I watch. I come away more confused than I was going in. Never with your tutorials!!:heartlub:heartlub:heartlub:heartlub:heartlub
