Digital Scrapbooking - what's it all about?

I love scrapbooking. Don't you?! I love the feel of the different papers, the colors, the different embelishments, the little crafty things you can add and most of all I love making a new page, creating memories for years to come.

So, it was no surprise when I heard about digital scrapbooking that I was quickly interested and wanted to know all I could about it. And, when I found out that it was all about scrapbooking online, I was elated! I love working on the computer and to be able to combine two of my passions... well, it was just heaven.

So, what is digital scrapbooking? Basically, it is scrapbooking online. There are hundres of programs out there that you can use to create your own online album. They all come loaded with page designs, layouts etc and the best thing I love about digital scrapbooking is that you can print them out on photo paper and have them bound and you have a very professional looking album!

I have had many visitors comment on my digital scrapbooking albums when they flick through them (they sit on my coffee table) and ask where I had them done... and when I say I created them, they want to know all about how I did it!

As with anything online, the sky is the limit and with most of the programs, you can create your own designs, layouts etc. And if you still like a bit of traditional scrapbooking, you add physical emelishments, tags etc once you have the album printed out... the best of both worlds.
