You are awesome. Project Life® is awesome. I'll show you how to make (and finish!) your own digital Project Life® album with a few simple techniques in Photoshop.

Project Life® is more than a way of scrapbooking. It's an entire approach to memory keeping, even a way of looking at, photographing, savoring, and saving the bits and pieces of your life. Becky Higgins has developed a method that makes recording your weekly events EASY, so you can complete an entire gorgeous, detailed album in a year, every year. As a revolutionary new take on the traditional paper Project Life® approach, Becky has devised a series of templates and digital materials designed to create Project Life® pages in Photoshop. She's given me EXCLUSIVE permission to teach you how to use the Project Life® digital materials to create your own album for 2013. If you're a beginner to Photoshop, but want to learn how to create a Project Life® album in Photoshop that you can share online with friends and family AND print to put in an album, then I can't wait to see you in class!

This self-paced class is open for registration! You'll have access to all your course materials FOREVER. No need to be online at a specific time - complete the class at your own pace!


In this video-based course, you'll learn the basic Photoshop tools to create Project Life® pages that integrate several of the materials of our craft: photographs, templates, embellishments, and type. During our class, I'll show you how to use Becky's digital Project Life® templates to create gorgeous pages in just a few minutes a week. You'll learn how to:
  • Download and unzip files
  • Open, close, combine, and save images of different types
  • Save pages for both print and the web
  • Use digital templates to speed up your work and create a cohesive look
  • Add embellishments to your pages
  • Insert, arrange, and resize photos
  • Use the Type tool for journaling and titles
  • And so much more!

All of the classes here at JessicaSprague.com come with gorgeous video instruction, broken down into project-based lessons and individual tasks within each lesson. This bite-sized approach to Photoshop makes it easy to understand, and you'll be amazed at what you can accomplish as you learn!

In addition to the lesson projects, I'll offer challenges, extra information, links, downloads, and other materials designed to enhance your experience and deepen your understanding of how to use Photoshop in your specific area of learning. You'll take the class completely at your own pace (you never need to be online at a specific time), and all of the course materials are available to you FOREVER from your My Classes page here at JessicaSprague.com. We love users of Mac or Windows, and welcome students from around the world to join us!

In addition to the classroom, which contains video-based lessons and downloadable PDF companion guides to help you follow along, our class also features a private forum where you can ask and answer questions and participate in discussions!

I'll also provide exclusive materials such as:

  • An exclusive custom background set that you can place in your template
  • Exclusive journaling cards and embellishments

As far as skills go, this is the place to start! You will need a few other things for class, though

You'll need a computer with internet access, and have any version of Photoshop Elements 7+ or Photoshop CS2+ installed. Adobe offers a free 30-day trial of these programs in its latest version.

In addition to your computer and Photoshop, you'll also need one of these two Project Life digital templates:

And you'll also need one of the current digital collections, which you can find at digitalprojectlife.com.

NOTE: This class covers the basics of Photoshop as it relates to Project Life® and using the digital materials. It is not a full course on the ins and outs of digital scrapbooking. If you are interested in pursuing your Photoshop journey after this course, I recommend enrolling in my Photo Editing 1 or Digital Scrapbooking 1 courses.

Great bang for bucks! Just finished this class and absolutely loved it. Until now I had only used PSE for basic photo editing, but had no clue how to
use templates, how to clip things, how to add in embellishments etc. Every attempt I did on my own to try master digital scrapping in PSE resulted
only in frustration. Now after taking this class, I can finally work on my digital Project Life pages without wanting to throw my mouse across the
room :) Can definitely recommend this class, it's set up well and easy and you get some fun goodies to boot!

beautiful! Many thanks to Jessica Sprague for this incredible class!
