Summary: Terrible Program!!
Review: This program does NOT say on the box that it only supports rectangle and square digital pictures. In fact, when looking at the box, it clearly shows ovals and specialty shaped photographs plopped right on the templates! Once you have opened the program and installed it, only THEN do you discover such is not available.It is neither fast, easy, nor fun to print and cut when you want to E-MAIL something on a template. UGH. Do NOT waste your money on THIS Hallmark program. The Hallmark name should not have gone on this. It's not even ONE star---it's a TURKEY.

Summary: Great software! READ THIS TO FIX THE PHOTO PROBLEMS!
Review: To anyone deciding whether or not to buy this, first of all, it is made by Sierra, so it works like Print Artist does. So, if you like Print artist, then this will be easy for you to use. This software, like Print Artist, lets you change the colors of the graphics, which I love. This software includes beautiful predesigned projects, the especially great ones are the baby themes, holiday themes, and heritage themes. The graphics included in the predesigned projects can be replaced with other graphics if you want to. The bad part about this software, just like Print Artist, is when you put photos in, it resizes it to fit the box, which means most of the time it will be distorted in some way. The only solution I have found is to edit your photos first, which means if you click on the square or rectangle, the bottom right hand corner will tell you the size of that rectangle. So then, you go resize it in a photo editing software by either making it that exact size or something equivalent to that size. So, if the box is 3in. x 4in., then you can use that size or 4.5in x 6in(1.5 times original) or 6in. x 8 in (2 times original) or anything else equivalent. This process might seem too hard at first, but after you get used to it, it goes pretty fast. This seemed to be the big problem for people, and for the price of the software, I think it is totally worth it even if you have to take that extra step for photos. I don't usually print out photos in the photo spots, because I print the pages on cardstock (or matte photo paper), and you don't get great photos when printed on cardstock, so I cut out the spot for the photo and then put a printed or actual photo behind it. The great graphics include: realistic looking fabric and stiching, buttons, and gorgeous backgrounds. Plus the Hallmark fonts that come with it are great- I use them all the time in my scrapbooks. Totally worth it!

Summary: More of a Question than a Review
Review: To those who have purchased this item....is it only for electronic scrapbooks, or can you print out pages for hard copy books?

Summary: Very Dissapointed
Review: Why would you want to buy a scrapbook program where you have to print out the pages, cut holes for the pictures, then lay the template over your photos? You wouldn't! This software does not place the picture behind the template frame like almost every photo program has been doing for years. It's utterly absurd that to make scrapbook pages in this software you have to crop your photo to the frame and try and get it to fit exaclty and try to maintain aspect ratio mannually. I'm amazed at how nice the templates are and how bad the software is. This one is going back!
