I love how the links to the items are saved, and how you can add comments. I'll be downloading this immediately! Thanks for the video. Super helpful and informative for the novice and expert alike. 👍🏽⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

As a tip for removing backgrounds: often I find that it doesn’t work with jpg images. What you can do (on an apple device) is screenshot the image you want to remove the background for. The screenshot will be saved as a png file and for whatever reason backgrounds can be more easily and accurately removed from png images.

This method looks so, so, so helpful. An improvement over just a Pinterest board or making a collage on Canva or a phone's collage feature for example or piecing together phone apps and free online tools that none of them do everything and aren't always set up user-friendly or quality and can have lots of ads and is a bunch of different tools instead of this more all-in-one method. And not everyone wants to have or learn Photoshop. So excited to try this!!!! So fun. It's always worth looking through comments on videos. Below a comment says PNG documents can more easily have backgrounds removed than JPEGs can - great to know!! There's probably many easy online or app tools to convert JPEG to PNG.
