I got some questions about the tutorial yesterday and other random things.

how do I use your alphas?

why do my shapes stay the same color instead of changing even though I used the color picker tool?

how do I get my paper to clip to my mat in the template I created?

This method will work for anything you want to clip to a shape in your template.

It's hard to see, but step three instructions is written in the blue part.

Hope that helps! As always, let me know if you have any other questions!

That is extremely helpful. When I was doing the mats, which I got to work, I didn't cut the paper, I just put the whole paper on. Is that going to cause problems later on?

You can do that too, but sometimes when the paper has a print on it, the print will turn out really small because the paper shrinks in size when you drag it on. If you resize it, then it's no big deal. When you are done editing the mats/clipping papers and photos to the shapes, then you can merge the layers together to simplify how many layers you have.
