    Want to see me make this layout?

    Some of my fellow LilyPaddians requested that I make a process video, so I recorded myself making this layout and put it on YouTube.

    Let me know if y'all want more and/or if you have any questions!

    Great video! I am so intrigued by all of your actions! I have such a hard time creating my own, LOL.

    LOL Dalis! The playgrounds here are amazing. See-saws you can go on by yourself, zip lines, huge hammocky swings... I grew up with rusted metal domes and splintery wooden bars to climb on. lol So jealous.

    This was amazing, Lorry. As a PSE user I'm so envious of your shadow tweaking flow. It was fun to hear your voice.

    Lorry, can you share with me how you set it up so that the template opens as layers in your new document? I can't figure it out.

    It's part of the Anna Forrest credit tracker script, but you could also select all the layers, right click, duplicate, and duplicate them into the other document. Also handy when combining two templates. :)

    That was very interesting to watch Lorry. Your new nickname should be "Action Girl"... just saying!
    Your action use is very impressive. ;)

    Thx for the idea. I just created an action with a hot key to open up a new 12x12 page, insert 2 photos onto the blank page and then close those photos out. I'll also make an action for 1 and 3 photo pages too. That saves a few minutes' time. Don't know why I didn't do that before....love anything that saves time! Thx Lorry for your idea.

    You spin me too..... WOW there is a lot going on " behind the scenes " of your pages, ( always knew you did cool things, but not quite how much ) I have looked at the video twice, and no doubt will look again. the only times I have made my own actions were at school,in a photoshop for beginners class ( pretty useless they were too LOL ) I never really saw the use for them until now.
    Thanks for sharing.

    I'm absolutely fascinated! I'm already making notes about how I can incorporate this in my scrapping as well!
