I used to visit our local mall each year and paid an enormous amount of money to have photo packages printed of each of my four children. With multiple family members to deliver photos to, the packages really added up! Now I print my own photo packages at home. I select the sizes I want and print only the photos I need. (No more paying for photos I won't use!)

I've created two video tutorials to teach you how to create your own custom photo packages using Photoshop Elements 8 and Google's Picasa. Follow along with the tutorials and create your own package. You'll be on your way to printing photo sheets to give to family members or use on your next scrapbooking project.
