One person will receive a spot in Anna Aspnes' upcoming class AlbumMagic through ReneePearson.com.

It’s time to kick your scrapbooking up a notch!

If you’re comfortable creating complete 12 X 12 digital pages but the idea of creating a cohesive album based on a single theme sends you running in the opposite direction, then this class is for you! Join Anna Aspnes as she demystifies album creation and leads you, one step at a time, through her own tried and tested process that will have you planning and executing albums over and over in record time.

This class isn't about producing a specific album with a set theme. Instead it provides a framework to which you can apply your own photos, stories and themes...

• Whether you have children or not 


• Whether you scrapbook everyday or special occasions 


• Whether you combine photos with stories or keep things simple 


• Whether you use one photo or many 


• Whether you consider yourself artsy or traditional 


• Regardless of your age and where you are in your life

At every step, you will learn to make your own choices based on your own preferences and style to create your own personalized album.

Suitable for users of Adobe Photoshop Elements 6, 7 or 8 and Photoshop CS3 and CS4, this course is designed for the intermediate digital crafter using either a Mac or PC. While you do not need to be proficient in any of these programs, you do need to be familiar with using them and understand the concept of layers.

Questions? Send them to Anna at anna@reneepearson.com.

In addition, you are invited to join Anna at reneepearson.com on Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 9.00pm EST where she'll be available via Livestream to answer your questions about AlbumMagic.

papercrafting industry and a few other goodies.

The Paperlife is an online hangout for papercrafters and artists of all mediums. We want to give you a one stop shop on the web for creative inspiration and enjoying your creative life. Each week we "spotlight" a different individual from the papercrafting industry and Amy does an audio podcast interview with them regarding their paperlive's. Their spotlight is filled with pictures of their creativity and especially fun is that each person in the spotlight for the week, does a wonderful giveaway from their paperlives.

We also feature papercrafting videos, from tutorials to product reviews, that are streamed on our site 24/7 via our own PaperlifeTV station. There is also a board of experts who host groups on everything from photography to kit clubs, that are available in our community boards to answer your crafting questions 24/7. Come hangout with us and get informed, inspired, excited, and meet new friends who live a paperlife just like you! Come visit us at www.thepaperlife.com.
