Here are some Photo Masks I designed months ago...

There have been requests from some of my viewers for me to re-post these for you!  If you don't have them... here is your chance to get em'  Enjoy!!! :)  
  • Below is a layout showcasing one of these masks in use.  When importing a photo into a mask you may need to adjust the photo by cropping it from the top left as it will typically fill from this position - top left and down.  In fact sometimes I find I may need to crop the photo 3 or 4 times before it fills the mask correctly or to my desire!  
  • TIP: Just right click on your desired photo in the photo panel and select "make a copy of this photo" this way you can play with a copy rather than the original - Also you may want to use this photo again on a separate layout in its original state!  
  • Then - select the mask - go back to the desired photo - right click and select "fill selected element with photo"   Woila!

  3. Hi Anonymous! I blend the photos into the page by using the Masks I have provided as freebies here on the blog. Photo Masks are a super fun and artistic way to add photos into a layout! The masks above, along with others I have added as freebies here, are intended to be dropped on your page and then filled with a photo. You can also use them for paper or backgrounds etc... I provided some instructions above (these instructions apply to the Storybook Creator Plus Program). Are you in the Edmonton Area? If so I do provide digital design classes once a month. If you are I can provided you with more info! :0) You can also check out more stuff on my Simple Pleasure Designs by Jennifer Fehr Facebook fan page! Thanks so much!
