Hi Jackie! I got it at Marshall's It wasn't too long ago so hopefully you can still find them!

You rocked it girl! Wow!! So cute!!

Hi Rebecca! yes, i do put a little bit of adhesive behind them first! Usually i use a runner that has the little dots!

you are a cutie! happy birthday!! enjoy the products!! keep checking back because I may have another solution for you for the 101 class in the near future! :)

I printed these at MPIX Pro! thank you!!

Thanks! I created it myself in photoshop!

Email me directly Rachel and I will help you out!

lynda, yes, they are thistles! good eye! but I still find them beautiful! I love spots like this where everything is just growing naturally and I look for color and texture in everything there… grasses, weeds, trees, buildings, etc. I love it all!

No, it won't be about anything photoshop related. I do edit my photos with photoshop but You don't have to for this class!

Anna, you can use any type of camera!!

thanks Linda! I have a few different sizes that i use - 2 inch, 1.5 inch and 1 inch. i have some from ek success and some from fiskars!

thanks! on the baby doll layout I made two different banners.... for the smaller ones I just cut triangles from patterned paper. Then I used adhesive to put on the twine with the triangles over the top of the twine. To finish it off I stitched it down (along the top of the bannesr) with my sewing machine. For the larger one I used the American Crafts tags and I cut the triangle notches out of the bottom of each tag to make them look like the flags for a banner instead of just tags. Then I adhered them down first and again finished it off by machine stitching along the top. hope that helps!!

I take pictures of my layouts and then I crop them to the exact size so that you can't see any background. I use photoshop but most photo editing software programs have a crop feature that would allow you to do the same thing. hope that helps!

Hi there! I dont think you would need to read another book. Just be familiar with where all the buttons on your camera are. The buttons to change things like iso, aperture, shutter speed. You dont need to know why to change them or what they do. Just how to change them. Does that make sense? Also, yes you will learn how to meter and get the exposure (degree of lightness) that you prefer. Maggie Holmes http://www.maggieholmesphotography.com Sent from my iPhone

Just emailed you back. The instructions are the same for version 8 so you will be fine! Maggie Holmes http://www.maggieholmesphotography.com Sent from my iPhone

I print the ones with the borders at Costco. They have always just been a small border when I have done it. Maybe check with your costco and see if they have different border size options???

Lately I have been printing all of my photos for scrapbooking at Costco. I love that I can pick them up the same day and they do a great job. I print on the glossy paper and I love it!!

thanks Jen! lately I have been using a lot of the wallet size photos. i print them at costco and they are the best little size - especially when i want to include 3 or more pics!!

Thanks Karen! Yes, I recommend using the 50mm 1.8 or any other fixed aperture lens, but that one is the least expensive and gives wonderful results!!

i use the modern 3 ring albums from american crafts and it works great, even with all the 3d elements!

HI Colleen! yes, they do tend to curl a bit but then when i put them in my albums they seem to flatten out just fine. i also try to flatten them out while i am drying the page with my heat embossing gun!

Yes, they will be emailed... Within 24-48 hours of purchasing. Usually faster. Maggie Holmes http://www.maggieholmesphotography.com Sent from my iPhone
