Well, my topic says it all. I am using Picture It! 7.0 and I don't know how to create shadows. Any of you ladies know? TIA

Hi Ashleigh, can I just say that Jenelle us just adorable. :)

About shadows, from what I remember (and I do not have this program), Picture It! Does not have a shadow option. One way to get around this... is to make your own. I believe you can duplicate your layer> fill with a dark color> place it behind your origional> offset slightly> and make it slightly transparent.

Perhaps someone looking at the actual program can let us know is this is the way to get around this. I believe PI has all of these options, if not you will have to let me know which step is missing... I used a different version of Picture It! but there are girls on here who use that program. :)

Hope that helps.
Happy Scrapping,
Melissa Renfro
