Spin a CT!

Oh my I am so in trouble! I knew that I was to do the blog post for the 13th, the only problem is that I thought that the 13th was tomorrow! So I AM SO SORRY that this post is well almost tomorrow! I did intend it to be fabulous and on time, but I guess we'll just have to settle for fabulous! Because Kairyn Lisa from Chelle's Creation's Creative Team is just that FABULOSO! So without further ado, I will announce today's ...

Today we are going to spin a whole gallery because Kairyn Lisa has far too many outstanding LOs to limit us to just one!

Here's how this works. You click on the link below Kairyn's gorgeous picture below, and you will be linked to her gallery. You choose one or more (the more the merrier) of her LOs to lift and you post a link in the comments and after a month, a winner will be announced from the participants! Sounds like fun...I know! I can't wait to see all the fun roll in. There is a special bonus in this particular Spin a CT, because Kairyn is extra special! She almost always does double page LOs so you will not only end up with one fabulous lifted page, but two for the price of one!!!! So get scrappin' and share the wealth here! Thanks to Kairyn for letting us steal her stunning ideas. Have fun and please forgive my lateness!

GALLERY HERE

Here are some sneak peaks of just what she can do! But don't stop here, checkout her whole gallery.

Hello!!! Roxana here with the Gallery Standouts this week!

First this beautiful layout by Dolores, love the black background paper she used, it really makes her pics and clusters pop!

Then this cute page by Dawn (Aussiegirl), the combination of circles and rectangles in her layering is fantastic, and the title is just perfect for her pics!

And last but not least this gorgeous card by Abhall76, the little bugs are just too cute, and the scalloped paper adds a beautiful touch to her card!

All the images are linked to the gallery so you can go and leave some love, and remember to add your layouts to Chelle's gallery, you could be one of the standouts next week!

Tuesday Freebie!!

Hi, Lisa (Kelseyll) here again as a guest for Chelle this month and I have a great freebie for you today! Schools all are on different schedules it seems but many give students and staff the summer off! As a teacher I can tell you that the last day of school before a summer vacation was about as exciting for me, if not more, than it was for my students! So, today's freebie features Chelle's Back 2 School kit with a fun little clustered embellishment for your page!

Click the image for the download link! =) Enjoy!

Sneak Peak

I think from this sneak peek it's pretty obvious what fun product Chelle has coming out Friday, haha!

Justify Your Text - How To...

Hi Friends!
It's Kairyn here with a "How To".

Have you ever seen those cute little journaling blocks where the edges of the text lines up on both sides for every line? Here's an example using Chelle's newest kit Something Fishy (available only at ScrapMatters:



See how it's in a nice neat rectangle, like print in a newspaper? The text is "justified". When I was a Paint Shop Pro and GIMP user, this was a quick option in the text options box. For those who use PhotoShop, it's also a simple thing to do. When I started using PhotoShop Elements, I was so sad to see "Left Justified, Right Justified and Center Justified" and that the plain old "Justified" option wasn't available. Then I read somewhere that is was possible, and easy to do... just "hold Shift and Ctrl and click J". Well, let me tell you - I tried selecting the text and clicking the buttons, I tried just having the text layer selected and clicking... I tried and tried! It was impossible and SO frustrating! I couldn't do it, and yet people were telling me it was possible!

I'm happy to say I've figured it out! Woo-hoo! It does involve "hold Shift and Ctrl and click J", but it's a bit more involved than that! lol

Alright, I didn't make any screen shots, because I'm thinking this is easy enough to explain... but if you don't "get it" just leave a message and I'll help ya out, okay?

Start with your psd file... decide where you want your text to be, click "T" to get to the text tool (or just click the text tool - but I LOVE using keyboard shortcuts whenever possible). Then click and drag with your mouse to create a text box. (This means, click, hold down the left mouse button and drag the mouse to make a box the size you desire and let go of the mouse button.) Click inside the newly made text box and type your details. Then hold the Ctrl button and click A to select all of the text. We're nearly done... are you still with me? Here's the last step... NOW hold down the Shift and Ctrl buttons and click J.

Wah-lah! You should now have text that lines up on both sides, cool huh? I'd love to see what you did... leave me a comment with a link to your LO, and I'll come and leave you some well deserved love!

Blessings!
