Holiday Templates 2011 | Q&A
Q. Will this workshop feature material previously offered in the 2009 or 2010 template classes?
STS. Nope. This class features hours of never-before-seen recorded lessons, demonstrations, and samples.
Q. How much should I know about digital scrapbooking?
STS. The basics, like how to use the Move tool and work within the Layer’s Panel. Something equivalent to Renee Pearson’s Back to Basics self-paced workshop is a good place to begin for Adobe Photoshop Elements users.
Q. Are there templates for families who celebrate Chanukah?
STS. Holiday Templates can be used for any celebration, event, or moment. They are non-event specific.
Q. Can the videos be downloaded and kept?
STS. Video content at reneepearson.com is not downloadable at this time. However the material will always be available for review online. You can also access the content from your iPhones & iPads too for convenience.
Q. Is this class geared toward Photoshop people only? Reason I ask … I have PSP (Paint Shop Pro).
Q. Do you have to be using any particular digital software to benefit from this class? I use Storybook Creator Plus.
STS. Lessons were recorded using Photoshop Elements 10 and Photoshop CS4. I don’t have enough experience using Corel’s Paintshop Pro (or Storybook Creator Plus) to honestly compare technical steps to Adobe’s Photoshop or Elements software.
Q. I’m intrigued by your “extras.” What are the “extras?”
STS. ”Extras” are the bonus goodies each students receive not shown (well one or two were shared on my blog). The “extras” include 8 templates not featured in the registration preview, which brings the final template count to 24. Add to that two digital cover options 93 date tags, a small holiday brush pack, some title art, journaling tags and exercise files to recreate steps I’ve used in specific lessons.
Q. Will you add the workshop templates to your store at DHD?
STS. After the class concludes, yes. However, the class kits and “extras” will not be added to my store.

Maybe I can answer one of the questions? I use PSP, and have followed two of the Holiday Templates classes. For me it was easy to follow the class. A lot of things are similar in PSP, and a few other things (that were not similar) were easy to translate to ‘how to do it in PSP’.

Tiffany, I’m considering taking the holiday class, but I was wondering i you could give us a better idea of the class schedule. December is a busy time of year. Are the videos released daily or all at the beginning. How long are they? What about the live chats and stuff. What days and what times? I tried to do the Scraphic Design Foundations and found that I wasn’t able to keep up, and that I would have gotten much more out of it had I been able to participate in the Live events, rather than watching the recorded feeds.
Thanks!
