LearninToDigi Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I am fairly new to digital scrapbooking. I purchased a ScrapSimple template and am having problems using it in StoryBook Creator 4.0 by Creative Memories. I know I have to use the "png" file, but I can't get it to work. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Any advice would be very much appreciated! Thank you so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nica Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Which template did you purchase? And, what are you trying to do, or maybe, what is it doing "wrong"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LearninToDigi Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 I purchased the ScrapSimple Paper Templates: Quilt Patterns. I downloaded them and imported them into SB. First of all, I am wondering if I put them in the right location? I put them under the paper category because I was unsure where I could save templates from outside sources? And, I imported the "png" files, knowing that the psd won't work with SB. When I add the "paper" (template) to my page, I can't do anything with it. I thought I could "click" on an area of the quilt and change the paper, etc. When I click anywhere on the page, it just highlights the entire page. Sorry....this is all new to me and I have only worked with a few click and fill pages by CM. Wanted to try something new and was intrigued by the cool layouts done with these templates. So again, any help would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nica Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I'm not familiar with the CM software, but I wonder if you imported the composite image. You are correct that you need to use the PNGs, but you want all of the individual files stacked up. If you're not wedded to the CM software, you might consider downloading CS2. Adobe is offering it for free. Then you can use the templates as is. CS2 Downloads (You'll have to make a free Adobe account.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindarobin Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Hi, LearningToDigi, If Creative Memories program is similar to My Memories program (which I have), then you cannot use ScrapSimple templates in it. I don't think CM can do "clipping masks" which is essential for using the SS templates. You can however, import papers and embellishments from the Boutique, and size and position them in the CM program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
