Hi ,
 
It's fun to find a kit with just the perfect accents for the page you have in mind, but it doesn't always happen. That's where the right skills and tools come in.

Here at Digital Scrapper/Scrapper's Guide, we're always working on putting the scrapbooking tools you need into your hands. One of the ways we do that is through the Tip of the Week.

In this week's free tutorial, Jan Walker is teaching how to grunge-up type by "sanding" it down. It's fun and easy, and you'll love the results. (The tutorial even has a brush for you to practice with, too!)

Seriously, I would urge you: don't miss out on these terrific bite-sized tutorials. You can always find the Tip of the Week at the end of each week's newsletter. Give it a shot, and learn something new today!

Love and scrapbooking success,

Linda Sattgast

Out-Of-Bounds TutorialProduct Spotlight

Note: Those of you with Photoshop Elements 9 don't need this tutorial, because Elements 9 has an automatic out-of-bounds feature. For those of you who do not have that specific version, this tutorial will teach you how to create an out-of-bounds effect manually.
 
A great way to draw attention to a special photo is making an object or person in a photo appear to step right out of the picture! Learn more.

Note: This tutorial was created for the February 2008 issue of Digital Scrapper Premier. If you were a member of Premier during that time, you already have this tutorial.
