scrapbooking

Have you ever wondered what Digital Scrapbooking is? I did, so I looked it up. Digital Scrapbooking is basically making a collage of your photos, art, layouts, fonts, etc in a graphics, or “Image Editing” program. It is just like Scrapbooking, only without the book! If you enjoy working with computers and showing off your work/art, this is a great way to go! It is especially good if you take a lot of Digital Photo’s. How broke can you go with Digital Scrapbooking? No Need! I found out how you can begin with more than the basics for low cost, or free! If you own a Digital Camera, then you most likely have some type of software that came with it. These are often referred to as “Image Editing” Package’s, or software. Most of these software programs, allow you to create “Albums” right on your computer. Other programs you can purchase that are REAL nice are: Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Ulead, Adobe, or Microsoft Picture It only to name a few. Now, you can create all your own scrap book art, if you like. But, if you want to save time, and go the traditional way, just download some free templates for yourself. I will list an abundance of digital scrapbooking templates and freebies for you. So, now you know that Digital Scrapbooking is just done on the computer. You can save to disk, upload, download, share it with a friend, print and make a book…A Scrapbook.
