    I wasn’t going to take this class because I thought I knew it all. Wrong! Still scratching my head about some things but it’s coming along. But I think the class would work for beginners as well. Part of my problem was preconceptions about how things ought to be done getting in may way.

    • Anna Aspnes

      Haha! Sometimes stepping ‘outside the box’ can provide new perspective. And Can I help with any of the questions you have? I will be doing more of these to build on these technique which should also help 🙂

  5. Tina Wilson (verified owner)

    First, I love taking Anna’s classes as I always learn something. This class is among my favorites so far. I took a lot of notes, although the class comes with a pdf with instructions. There were soooo many great tips and techniques packed into this mini-class. I’d say the content is not mini at all!

    • Anna Aspnes

      Thanks so much Tina. Love that you loved the class. So appreciate your time leaving your experience with my classes.

Anna lays the groundwork techniques needed and demonstrates these in an easily understandable pace. If you want a dynamic perspective shift that carries forward in your design toolkit, this class is for you.

      Thanks Viv! Good to know there’s still plenty I can teach my advanced Photoshop users in this ‘sport.’

    • Anna Aspnes

  10. Sonya Fuller (verified owner)

    This is a great class format. Anna does a deep dive into one technique and shows multiple ways of using the technique to create something that will fit into your scrapbooking style. I’m an experienced Photoshop user and was a little hesitant about taking the class but I’m so glad I did because I learned something new! Even if you’re new to Photoshop you will be able to follow along as Anna goes through each thoroughly. I highly recommend this class!

    • Anna Aspnes

      Glad you enjoyed the format Sonya. The goal is always to share a technique and then provide inspiration for using these same skills in different ways 🙂
