Oh, the coolest thing!

I love having friends! And I love that we all find things around this great big world wide web that others have yet to find! Well, a friend shared a link with me today and I just can't help but share it with all of you! Especially for those of you who are interested in Digital Scrapbooking with Photoshop Elements. One of the drawbacks of elements is it's lack of a simple tool. (Well, to be honest, it's a tool that takes some getting used to, but is so totally addictive once you get the hang of it!) That's the Pen Tool available in both Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro. This one small omission is why so many of us grit our teeth and spend the money to upgrade to PS from PSE. The simple act of doing text on a path leads so many of us down the road to this bigger and much more expensive pieces of software. (Right, I know there is way more it can do, but isn't this the one that peaked your interest most?) Well, there is now an answer to this dilemma! And even better, it's free!

To find this wonderful software start at JessicaSprague.com. She has all the lowdown and even a good tutorial to get you started. Then follow her link, or go to Inkscape.org to download this wonderful open source software and give it a try. (I've not done it yet, but plan on it as it has a Mac version too!)

Have fun and let me know how it goes!
