Thankful Thought | No.1
I love that when my parents come to visit my kids only want Grandma to put them to bed.
"Grandma do it." says Anna.
"Grandma!" calls Simon as he rounds the corner to go upstairs to his bedroom.
I'm so thankful for that relationship.
I'm starting a new occasional series called Thankful Thoughts and you're invited to join me.
Each time I post a Thankful Thought (a photo + a few words) I'll include a free numbered overlay download for you to add to your own photo. I'm also included a rounded-corner photo mask in this first download for those of you who'd like to have rounded-corners on your photo.
Download Thankful Thought | 001 here.
Also for this first download I put together a video tutorial on how to use the overlay and the rounded-corner photo mask.

Enjoy!
Finally got the desired result - which I am really chuffed with as I am such a technological numpty!!

Ali, the keys on a PC are CTRL and Alt. For masking it is Alt+G. There is no Option key on the PC. I hope this will help the new to Elements folks. Thanks, Ami
PS I am loving the SB Travel class and have my journal almost completed.

Love it, love it! I'm completely new on photoshop so I love these tutorials. And I do have a question. How can I see several files open as yours? Because for me, they are tabs and I have to go from one to another and cannot see them as little windows.. FYI I have PSE9 & a MAC thanks!
