    Yes, I made the mistake of recording a "watch me scrap" while coming down with a shocker of a bug. I thought I was doing OK but I couldn't even get the name of the products right - and don't even get me started on the typos LOL :duh

    But, what the heck, it was fun and I am too sick now to redo it (I'm as croaky as a frog) so enjoy and I'll tell myself you are laughing with me and not at me :crazy3

    Lynn, your LOs and photos are always so gorgeous that it made me feel better to see you "make mistakes." I like knowing that designers are just like me! :) Love how you changed the sky color to better coordinate with the bottom-right photo!

    I just watched a few minutes to hear your voice. LOL! I always feel like I know somebody when I can hear what they sound like.

    Sadly no! Much worse. Have also lost voice completely so have lost control of household too LOL :cry If I want anything done or to remind them of something (all three are horrendously forgetful!) I have to get up, find them and use sign language and plaintive whispers :faint2

    Oh no, Lynn. I'm so sorry you have to deal with this. If it's any consolation at all, I thought your video was great. Fantastic page as well! I could listen to you for hours. I hope you're on the mend soon. Take care. :heartlub @LynnG

    First, I LOVE your voice!! Very cool to get to hear you, I definitely giggled WITH you!

    Second: (and PLEASE do NOT take this as critique or anything negative, this is simply something I learned in the last few months that I wish I'd known in my many years of scrapping and doing things and so I just wanted to let you know in case you didn't and liked it better!) If you go to Edit: Transform: you can easily turn the horizontal photo frame into a vertical by using the Rotate 90 degrees button. If you want to rotate the WHOLE template/page, EVERYTHING on there, you go to Image and Rotation there. :D This made my life SOOO much easier because I constantly would turn things and have to sit there and eyeball it. (I was dumb enough not to realize the degrees were up there where you were looking! So I learned that by watching you! :D)

    I also learned about the smudge tool and shadows, can't wait to try that out! And I absolutely LOVE and appreciate it SO much when a designer includes both the shadowed and un-shadowed versions, THANK YOU for that! It's my favorite and makes things so much easier, but then like you said, I have control for if I need it under something as well!

    I also loved the tip about the color overlay! Thank you so much for making this! I really really hope that you feel better and have your voice back!

    LOL - I know, I always do that except in this case and then I thought "what am I doing?!! LOL". But couldn't be bothered restarting the recording in my sick state. And that's just ONE of the silly mistakes :crazy3

    I felt justified though as the day after recording I was sicker than I have been for a long time with this horrid virus :-(

    Ahhh! :spin :sorryI hope you're feeling better now! I've been trying to stuff chicken noodle soup into my USB port to send it to you, (it's cheaper that way instead of air-mailing to NZ which it would be sooo cold by then anyway..) but so far, I can't get it to go.. :stirpot
