Scrapbooking has been a hobby for me for about 10 years. I LOVE it! My sister in law Lindsi taught me how to use photoshop and do digital scrapbooking and now I love it even more! (Thanks again Lindsi!!!)
I have been working diligently on my scrapbook for the past few months and I finally completed, ordered and received my first TWO digital scrapbooks!
(A Family book and a Baylor book.)
I like to keep my pages pretty simple.
My photoshop skills are limited but I know enough to get the job done.
Here are a few pages:
Here are a few pages:
I have made a lot of pages like this.. I make a collage in picasa (which is totally easy) and then add some words and voila! Super easy!
Just because it is digital doesn't mean you can't still include your 'scraps' in your scrapbook. In these pages I scanned my sonogram pictures of Baylor, my baby shower invitation, and Baylor's blessing certificate!
As you can probably tell I totally love digital scrapbooking!
Here's why...
-NO MESS!
-You don't have to order prints or shop for supplies. You can take pictures and scrapbook them that same day!
-The books take up WAY less space
-You can find FREE supplies online (my favorite source is raspberrypatch.blogspot.com)
-You can make a page and use it in several different books. (I made a family book and Baylor's book using most of the same pages.)
-You don't have to worry about your handwriting so it is easy to do a lot of journaling!
-It's really fun!!!
