Female: Amy Pilkington joins us now from the Last Thing Impressions, and she is going to show us how easy it is to create this beautiful digital scrap book page right?
Amy: That is right; it is so easy this program that I am using, as you can see these pages up here on the screen with this blue box. All do to add my picture is simply double click. It will take me to where all my pictures are located on my computer. I simply clicked the photo that I would like to insert and “OK”, and it will just drag there right there on my page for me.
Now, this photo it looks really cute here but I am going to try something a little different and turn it to a sepia color. So I am just going to come in here and I am going to add another embellishment. The program comes with thousands of different embellishments. I am going to pick this little orange heart right here and it will just dropped put on my page and then I can just move it around wherever I would like. So, I am just going to overlap it and I can make it a little bit bigger or smaller. You can resize, just very simply and easily. So we will just put that little heart right there.
And now if I want to add a title or any text to my page, all I do is click the ‘Titles and Journaling.’
Female: That is good because we want to know who this pretty little girl, is that right?
Female: Add text and I am just going to type her name in here and I can use any font that is available on my computer. So anything that I have downloaded or that is on my computer will be available i5n this program. So I am going to pick this font right here, I think that is kind of a cute one. And again, you can move it around, I am going to come in and make it bigger, so we can read it. Let us do it one more and then I am going to change that to white. Now, it is a little hard to read there, so I am just going to simply add a text shadow just like clicking text shadow and okay, and there you go. You are done!
Female: That is beautiful. And that is so easy and I love it the way self-intuitive, you can just kind of have to look in. You just click and go.
Female: Right, exactly. So when you are done with your page, you can print it out.
Female: And then this is what it looks like.
Female: That is right. Isn’t it beautiful?
Female: Absolutely beautiful.
Female: And you can print in all different sizes. This is a 12 x 12 that is an 8 x 8. You can print it just on your home printer or get it professionally printed.
Female: Okay. Now, you also have some other templates on the desktop because you can do some other things too with the software program.
Female: That is right. You can make calendars, birth announcements, Christmas cards; here is a little Christmas card here, so, all sorts of different things. Like I said, you can do 8 ½ x 11, any size. And then something that I just love, are this photo books and again this is the right in the software. So, you create all your pages and then you can turn them into a photo book to have it laying out on your coffee table, those are fun.
Female: That is beautiful.
Female: Yes, those fun.
Female: Well, who would not be proud to have something like that to show to everybody?
Female: I know what a great gift.
Female: Wedding, baby showers.
Female: That is right.
Female: Well, you have got some other samples to show us. So, let us look through these because these are gorgeous.
Female: So, like I said, all of these pages are in the software. They are included, so just have to drop your photo in. But you can also create your own pages from scratch, using hundreds of backgrounds and embellishments. So the creativity is really endless.
Female: And that is what we like.
Female: That is right. You can see all these; you know little embellishments, lots of different styles.
Female: Now, can you change colors on the background pages and on the embellishments?
Female: You certainly can. You can add any text you want, add maps to your photos, all of these sorts of things.
Female: And I love the way you have added the shadow to make them look dimensional there.
Female: Yes, drop shadows. You can add drop shadows to everything which is great. I love this, is that not cute?
Female: And it is just absolute gorgeous. And so, if these were little buoy, you could actually change it to blue as well.
Female: Uh-huh.
Female: And Amy, these are wonderful. You really have me inspired and I am sure all viewers will get into digital scrapbook. Thank you so much.
Female: You are welcome.
Female: Stay tune, we will be right back.
