Awesome template Denise!!! Thanks so much. I knew as soon as I saw it that I wanted it as my title page for my Halloween book. This is the first page of it that's done. :-)

I'll be posting the SBC template later this evening. Sorry it's taken me so long but working out on a job site has me super busy. Not only do I have to work on the site all day, but when I go home I have to sit down and work on what I normally do in the office during the day. Argh!!! Oh I wish we had a field trailer with electricity and internet!!!!!! And then all day yesterday I was in meetings with Georgia's version of the EPA. Double Argh!!!!

Another way to fill the letters with your photos is to perform the following steps:

1 - add your photo to the layout by dragging it from the photo tool bar on the right onto the LO.
2 - Open the properties (right click and then click on properties) of the letter you want you photo added to and note the size (height and width) and then click cancel.
3 - Open the properties of your photo and uncheck the lock aspect ratio box.
4 - Change the width and height of your picture to match that of the letter you want to fill it with and then click accept.
5 - Click on the picture to highlight it and resize it using the blue magnifying glass on the right and move it where you need it (within the frame) using the yellow "+" that appears in the middle of the photo.
6 - right click on your photo and save it as a selection.
7 - Go to "add Photos" and re-add your newly saved photo.
8 - Select the letter you want to fill.
9 - right click on your new photo in the photo ribbon and click on "fill the selected element with this photo".
10 - Repeat steps for remaining letters.

Thanks Charlene!!!
I was so sad that I couldn't figure out how to make the letters and doodles! I can create 'basic' templates... and I have done some 'odd' shapes using the wand on the preview....but this had me totally baffled!!
I really appreciate all the hard work you do converting them!!!

Can I do anything to help you SBC'ers? Can I save the letters as PNG's and the backgrounds as JPGs? Would that help?

Everything saved as .png's would be perfect! And a preview of the page that I can line them up on top of (kwim?). We can then layer those and fill them just like in PSE. I was just going to ask for that and luckily I read the whole thread and you ladies were already on it!
