PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS FOR CREATIVE ENTREPRENEURS
When I was planning my son's first birthday, I wanted it to be perfect. The perfect invitaions, the perfect decorations, and of course I wanted everything to coordinate. I searched Etsy and found so many beautiful digital designs. I was captivated by it all and found myself wanting to be able to make the invitations and decorations myself.
I dreamed of creating beautiful graphics that people would purchase for their own parties. There was only one problem... I had no clue what I was doing when it came to graphic design.
I Googled and watched countless hours of YouTube videos to soak up every ounce of info about graphic design. Then I realized ANOTHER problem...the information that I needed was scattered all over the internet. All I wanted was a comprehensive guide to everything I needed to know but it didn't exist. I realized that other people probably wanted a comprehensive guide too and that's how Photoshop Elements for Creative Entrepreneurs was born.
This book steps you through everything you need to know about Photoshop Elements to get you started in graphic design. In addition, it covers advanced techniques as well, making this book perfect for beginners AND experienced users.

What others Are Saying
As a photographer and blogger, I have been working with Photoshop Elements for many years. I love that Kelly explains what all the tools and abilities are from a graphics standpoint, but also shares tips on what you can do with those tools once you get your creative juices flowing. Since I learned the program for mainly portrait photography processing, there are many tools that I have not been using to their full potential. But now that I am adding more graphic design to my product line, I can take these tips from Kelly to make the process easier. Kelly does a great job at making Photoshop Elements simple and straighforward. I wish this book was around when I was learning the program years ago.

Before reading Photoshop Elements for Creative Entrepreneurs, I had only used Photoshop Elements for very minimal photo editing. I knew that I wasn't using it to its full capabilities but I was also at a loss of where to start. As I was reading Kelly's book, things started clicking almost immediately. Not only did I know what certain tols were called, but I knew what they were for and saw real examples of how to use them. The book appeals to those who learn visually with many screenshots and graphics, as well as to those who learn better with written step by step directions. I am excited about the possibilities this has opened up to me and am itching to start creating my own graphics now.
