January121, on iPads or iPhones, a screenshot is easy:

"Simultaneously press the Home button and Sleep/Wake button when viewing the screen you want to capture. Your iPad screen will then flash if done correctly, and you’ll hear a faint shutter noise assuming your device isn’t in silent mode.

Once captured, your iPad will automatically save the screenshot directly within your camera roll (aka the Photos app). Tap the Photos app as you would normally — the app icon faintly resembles a multi-colored flower — and swipe to the bottom of the screen to view your recently-captured screenshot."

Then, you can use an app for editing. Among others, I like the Aviary app, but there are plenty to choose from.
