Computer crafts: They're creative. They're fun. And they really teach computer skills! Get ready to express your inner creativity and develop your computer skills with Computer Art for Young People, Volumes 1 & 2. Now you can make your own computer wallpaper, ecards, and so much more.
No software to buy! The great thing about this highly educational and entertaining two-part set is that all of the computer crafts can be created using software that's already on your computer, so there's no software to buy or install! Most projects are created using the Microsoft® Paint application for the Windows® operating system. The remaining projects are accomplished using the Microsoft® Word application, which comes bundled with Microsoft® Office. There's even a thorough Microsoft Paint tutorial that teaches young people how to use Microsoft Paint.
In Volume 1 of this two-part set, your computer crafts guides -- Lisa Fetner, Teri Grant, Mary Klamer and Bridget Orren, who just happen to be real-life school teachers -- will guide you step-by-step through six elementary art lessons to create six beautiful computer crafts projects, while our young guest artists follow up each segment with their own designs. In Volume 1, you'll explore new computer techniques and express yourself on the screen creating:
