Product is a powerpoint. All you do is view, select, copy and paste and resize to suit your needs!
Note:
I have organized all templates / graphics into categories.
Just copy and paste the template / graphic into the software you are using. It takes a bit longer to import doing it this way … but I think you will find the storage and ease of locating what you need more than makes up for the wait! I didn’t think it would be beneficial for you if I gave you 100+ files and you would have to wade through them to find what you wanted! Hope you agree!
If you want, you can save some of your favorites! Just right click on the template/graphic and click Save as Picture and save to a folder on your desktop.
Have any suggestions for more templates … just send me a message (Artsy-Crafter) and I will create it for you and add it to this bundle. This is fun for me!
