Oh, Man I am so sad to see it's NSD and I have to go to a painting workshop I've already paid for.. (believe me, I was trying to figure out how to get out of it)
I can make half this chat and already made a layout.. But, this is a very sad face...

I would love to join you, however I am compurtlrss today. If I had know earlier in the week, I would have planned around this special day, hope you all have a great day! Love my iPad but scrapping and chats are just too much for it to handle. But I can see all the lovely layouts you ladies can post.

I had a different 2 pager but couldn't find the right photos. So I used our Halloween photos to do one instead.

Amy, you may certainly use a layout template or sketch to get started! Normally I say people have to be in chat to get the information (since it's kind of like a free mini-class), but I'm going to give you a couple tips to at least get you going:)
1. It's easier to work with one big 12 x 24 inch document than try to have two side by side 12 x 12 documents.
2. When ready to print, use your crop tool set to 12 x 12 inches to crop the left side, "save as" Title_left.jpg (or something similar). Then undo those changes and this time crop the 12 x 12 right side and "save as" Title_right.jpg
Make sure to not save over the original .psd!
