In the “Nitty Gritty of Organization” in Digital Scrapbooking magazine’s October/November 2008 issue, we show you how to get your photos, kits and digital elements organized in a flash. Here you’ll see how to put this process into practice step-by-step in Photoshop Elements.

Download our XML file of categories for organization here (ZIP format).
