Adobe PhotoShop is one of the few, but favored, photo editing programs used by digital scrappers. Perhaps it’s the reputation Adobe has built that makes the program so popular, or it could be all the features it offers.
Either way, it’s a program well worth discussing. If you’re familiar with digital scrapbooking then you may already know some of its applications. If you’re not familiar with digital scrapbooking you may be looking into it more after reading this.
PhotoShop, as it’s more commonly called, is a digital photo imaging and editing software. It can be used for tasks as simple as storing photos for viewing on your computer or for
more complex tasks like creating slide shows or digital scrapbooks.
If you’re new to this, the word complex might scare you, but don’t be scared. Let me take a few minutes to explain to you what PhotoShop can do and how easy it can be.
PhotoShop makes simple work of tasks like creating backgrounds, cropping photos and journaling. You can literally sit down to your computer and in minutes have an original background, cropped photos and your journaling finished in a beautiful font of your choice. Along with these tasks you can use PhotoShop’s Custom Shapes feature to create shapes like you would with Die Cuts.
One of the most important aspects of your scrapbook is the background you choose. If you’re tired of trying and coming up empty-handed, then PhotoShop might be right for you.
You can create a custom background with just the tools offered through the program or you can even create a background from one of your own photos! Imagine this, you’ve taken a family vacation to Hawaii and now you want to put together a vacation scrapbook.
You’ve looked and looked and none of the backgrounds are just right for your scrapbook. You want something tropical, like the island with a realistic touch. No problem, simply load your vacation photos and choose the background you want.
