Hi everyone,
My DS is turning one on October 24. Originally we were just going to have a few family members over but we are now thinking that we may invite a larger number of friends and family over for a casual cookout. Problem is I'm running out of time to come up with an invitation! I was admiring the various invitations that people have created using Photoshop, but we don't have Photoshop. Here are my questions:
I read that you can download Photoshop Elements for free on a trial basis. Does anyone know if that is still true? Would Elements allow me to create a nice invitation? I don't need anything too extravagant, I was thinking a few pictures and then the text. Is it hard to teach yourself the program? Once you create the invitation, how do you print it - do you buy the card stock or take it somewhere?
I'm wondering if this is not realistic for me to do in a week. I may end up going to an invitation shop and ordering something there....
Thanks in advance for any suggestions, advice....
