I just purchased secrets revealed for Word and I'm confused. Are these just different methods to printout and then add to paper scrapbooks or can one actually create a scrapbook page in Word? I did not see how to insert a background or how to insert elements, alphas, photos onto a background. This is what I really wanted from the product. Thank you.

Hi Linda,

If you will watch through the movies, you will see that you are taught how to put photos in as backgrounds through the text boxes. That is how you put in the scrapbooking backgrounds in your layout. Then you put additional photos and supplies on top of your photos that same way - through the text boxes. You have to do it in strange ways in Word, but I have shown you in those movies how to insert all of the graphics, how to layer graphics on top of each other (photos in text boxes with more photos in text boxes on top), how to add text on top of photos, and the other skills that you need. I have shown you how to do WordArt, how to apply drop shadows and other things, too.

I've had lots of customers take those skills and make digital layouts with them. The skills are also very useful for paper scrapbookers and they are things that they are interested in learning. That is why you see the mix of things that you see. Since I was covering Word, I covered all of the graphic capabilities that it has at one time. There wasn't any reason to try to separate it out.

Let me know if you have any other questions. I'm happy to help!

ok, thanks, Ro, I guess I'm the kind of person who likes things in sequence, "you do this first", then you do this second". Your explanation helped, will experiment soon. Thanks.
