What are the frames and shapes on my AOL

[Nelette]

I'm so new to digital scrapbooking. What are the frames and shapes that I find on my documents? Do I keep them when I have succeeded in a good page? Eventurally I want to have my scapbook uploaded to be printed. Any advice on how to keep the pages so I can do that. Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean. What program are you using? Have you looked at our New to Digital link up in the menu?

I'm using the HP Creative Scrapbook. Each day I get better so maybe I will figure it all out soon. Thanks

Hi Nelette,

Think of the shapes in the HP program as scissors :) You can either fill them with a photo or you can fill them with a color and put journaling on top of the shape for a "tag look."

Frames are used for outlining the shapes. First use your shape, then if you want a bit of an outline to the shape, use the frames feature.

Hope that helps. :)
