    I have installed and uninstalled Photoshop Elements 10 three times. I just got so confused and discouraged, I dumped it.

    When I received the offer for the free organizing course, I thought: ‘At least I can sort my stuff, for the price of the program.’, so I installed it one more time. We are halfway through the organizing course, and I am on track, although I concede I may never be truly organized.

    When I checked out your site, Digital Scrapbooking HQ, I found enough tutorials to actually learn to scrap, for FREE!! I have learned how to open (and use) Elements; at least the very basics. I believe I will be able to scrap with PSE, and like it, with your help.

    I THANK YOU!!

    When I am ready for the next step, I know where to come!!

      Thanks so much Joanne! I am so thrilled to be able to help and I’d love to see any pages you make! 🙂

      With Organizer, even just having the supplies in there means you can search and find things so much more easily!

    I have really enjoyed the classes you provide (I haven’t been able to look at them all, but have them saved to go back when I can). I recently got Photoshop Elements 11 and even though I am still learning how to use it, I like it better than elements 10 so I look forward to getting more time to play. Thanks for a chance to win such an amazing prizes.

    Melissa, you have taught me so many things on Photoshop Elements I had no idea they were possible. And having ‘only’ PSE 6 I still was able to do 99% of the things you taught us. Really great!

    Yay! I just found your site last night. I just switched over to Mac and bought PSE 11. I am trying to get all my supplies moved over, and would love to learn how to get my digi supplies organized. So excited!

    One of the best things I learned was how to make a page without a template; I was so excited with my completed page! Melissa’s classes are easy to follow and I always learn something new. Thanks Melissa and thanks for the awesome giveaways 🙂

    I really enjoyed your Get Organised workshop! Thanks for the chance to win these great prizes, Melissa!
    Quick question: I’m not able to download the PSE shortcut cards, I need to register, then receive the message I am already registered. Any idea what I’m doing wrong? Or are the cards no longer available? Thanks!
