See how I did it
I created the layouts using my super-simple template set and here's how it turned out.
If the process of digital scrapbooking has you mystified, I'd love to show you how I created one of the layouts in this book using just a template, photo, kit and the move tool, in 4 minutes.

I used to start Christmas gifts in September, but with another generation to consider, Maybe July would be better! Everyone gets something that is unique and handmade, but digital really helps!!
Thank you for the chance to win!
Kathy Simkins says
I used to gather my Christmas gifts or make them all during the year. Now I have grandchildren that grow so fast that I can’t keep up. Christmas in July sounds so great! It even makes me not notice the unseasonably hot weather that we are having this summer. Winning the giveaway would be a dream come true! Thanks for the opportunity!
Doreen says
I would love to win this. It would really be great to be organised for Christmas this year. Please pick me
Tina Smedegaard says

Karyn Allen says
Summer is sacrosanct for me as an educator…those hours at home are simply precious and I try to catch up on things I have let go through the year(s). This year the summer has gone by too fast – but I still want to make an advent calendar – every year – it is on my to do list – every year it gets pushed to the back burner….not to mention some photo books – would love to win this packet of prizes. Thanks for the opportunity.

I always like to get a head start on my Christmas cards, but it doesn’t always happen. I believe this album is already in my stash, but I don’t see the digi kit there. Love your classes – and spending time this summer working through them!

I would love to get going on holiday prep early.
Beverly Mascara says

Really have to…thanks for your precious smile

I definitely like to get a good start on handmade Christmas cards in the summer. I’m just getting into more digi, so this collection would be awesome!
LINDSEY says
I love to scrapbook, but with the 4 of us (myself, my husband, our 5 yr old and a Yorkie) living in a 900 sq.ft. 1 bedroom house; it is not easy. I hope to get back to scrap-booking soon. Happy Scrapping!!
Jean says
Thanks for the opportunity to possibly win this Christmas bundle. Seems like I never have enough time at Christmas to scrapbook, write cards, etc… It all comes way too fast. I enjoy reading and trying all your tips on Photoshop Elements. Thank you Melissa

Oh my goodness – this would make everything SO much easier! I am expecting my first grandson in a week or so, and I have 2 lovely granddaughters. That means I must shop or create for 3 couples, 2 single men, 2 small girls and 1 baby boy (plus my mom, sister, brother and friends).
