I'm just gonna go ahead and double click and open my 1st image . Then I'm gonna use the Select tool, and I'm gonna click on my image , and then just hold down the key as I drag it over to the template. You can see it all drop in there. The next thing I need to do is send it behind one of the template spaces, so I'm gonna go ahead and use the Clipping Mask function to the Create Clipping Mask. Just control or command G, and once you get used to doing this often, you'll be able to use those quick keys. Now I need to change the size because it's obviously too large, so I'm gonna go ahead and scale my image . Now you have a couple choices here. You can either use these little open-ended squares that are in the corner of your image , and use those to scale, or you can use the percentage indicators at the top of your screen. And that's what I'm gonna go ahead and do here because it's easier sometimes if you can't see all the corner points on your image to just enter a specific percentage that you want to reduce your image to, or enlarge your image to if that's the case. So I'm gonna go ahead and type that in, and then you'll see that the image has gotten a lot smaller. So it's about the right size. I don't need to make any more adjustments, so I can go ahead and click the little check mark that means it's okay. I'm gonna open another image . Drag it over just like I did the first one. I'm gonna go ahead and do my clipping mask, and then I'm gonna scale the image just like I did the last time. This time, I'm gonna use the little squares on the ends, move that into the right spot, and get it just the right size. And, as you can see, I've got a little bit of image bleeding over into my other photo, so I need to go ahead and remove that. So I'm gonna select the Mark key tool, and then I'm just gonna highlight that area of the image . Just go ahead and kind of surround it there with my little dotted line, and then you can go ahead and just go up and hit Clear or Delete, and that will get rid of the extra image . I'm gonna do that to this one as well. Just select that area that I don't want, go to Edit, and hit

that. And then, as you can see, I've got a lot of image on the sides that isn't working. So this time, I'm gonna select around my image , and then I'm gonna go out and actually do inverse, and then I'm gonna hit the Clear, and it's gonna get rid of all the excess image . So if you've got excess on both sides, that's an easy way to do it. And then I just hit D-Select there. So then that's all done. Your photo collage is finished. You can go over to your layers pallet, and you just wanna flatten the image now, and then it will just turn everything. All the grid lines will be white now instead of the grayed out that they were. You wanna go ahead and save. I'm doing a Save As. I'm gonna save it as a JPEG. Usually results in a little smaller file size, and that's it. You're ready to print out your image . Your photo collage is complete. Okay, once you've finished your collage and you've printed it out, you're ready to scrapbook your page.

of different things that you can do. It's kinda like having a computer in the machine.

that will have a USB direct connect from the machine into my computer so I can store----

which gives me a large thumbnail image of each shot so I can pick exactly the right one. PC users may also wanna give Picasa a try. My friends

express a little creativity without having to create scrapbook pages for every image . Consider using a simple photo album designed to hold 4X6 photos.

make a really big statement on her page. And even though that image takes up space, she still fit in two more photos and some journaling. Here's how I interpreted Erica's original. I stayed pretty
