Hmm this is going to be interested. I think the subject matter will be the most difficult - snow and weddings are the first things that come to mind and it doesn't snow here. ;-) Thinking cap on.
@Justagirl, what about journaling? Can that be black? Or should I just add my journaling after posting my layout?
In the instructions there are several references to "your photo." Does that mean we cannot do multi-photo layouts?
Zanthia, there is a color swatch and these colors should be fine: There is also issues too sometimes with some monitor callibrations...so if the paper has a "cream meaning yellow tinge" that is a warm tint.. to whiten it, you can add a blue filter to it or hue adjustment to make it more white than cream. How I changed, for example, my black ribbon to white: On the rasterized layer of the black ribbon selected in the layer pallet, I held the ctrl/cmmd key and pressed I.. that inverts the color from black to white. I then clipped a curved adjustment layer to the white layer and lightened it a bit and tweaked it a little to keep the texture. It is not always the easiest depending on the element. Perhaps there is another answer that is better for you, but that is how I adjusted elements I was using that weren't white to begin with.
