Very cute Denise. I missed you last challenge by a day (was out of the country until late last night - 3/22) so I definitely want to be a part of this one.

Thanks so much for a super-fun template. I know I'll use it again and again!

Ok, I'm struggling with this one. Usually, when I've done a template, I make do a little trick to make the pic or paper match the shape. It's not working now. Is there a simple way to do this or how to I crop pics to work for the shape?

Laura, if you're using Photoshop (and I imagine PSE is similar) you put the picture/paper layer on top of the layer you want it to fit inside. Then Alt + Command + G on a Mac or Alt + Control +G on a PC and it will clip to that shape. Then you can transform and move the image about as necessary.

To transform it's Command (or Control) +T, then hold the Shift key down while you drag a corner of the picture with your mouse or pen to keep the same ratio so your picture doesn't end up squashed or stretched.

Thanks. That's what I thought, but I couldn't get it to cooperate last night. Then again, maybe I was the problem. Hahah!
