Scrapbooking Info

Digital scrapbooking is all the rage these days. You can create personalized scrapbook pages with your computer. You can remove red eye, crop pictures, touch up colors, brighten, sharpen, and perform other functions with photo editing programs and make your photos beautiful and more fun!
The subject of a photo should suggest the kinds of sayings and decor that would work well on a digital scrapbook page. You can also add where the picture was taken and the date too using the text tool of your editing program.

When working on birthday pages on your digital scrapbook you can add a cake, candles and even the persons age if you like. Christmas trees that include the year that the Christmas pictures were taken make nice accents. You can do the same type of accent for any of the holidays many themes are available online. Some caps and gowns in the backgrounds of your pictures is a great way to remember your child’s graduating year. There are endless ways to add special effects to your computer scrapbook pages.

With digital scrapbooking you are able to print more than one copy.  This is great for making albums for everyone in your family or on your Christmas list. Many different varieties of textures and paper designs as well as ink can be used. You can even print pages 12 inches by 12 inches if the printer you own can print in wide format. Most regular printers though do 8” x 8” well. How gratifying to see your digital scapbooking layouts printed in an album or book.

Digital scrapbooking has several other advantages as well. If you mess up while laying out a digital scrapbook page, a simple click on Undo gives you a second chance–or as many chances as you need–to get it right.

Easily store your photos on your computer, all the while having the option to burn them onto a CD-R and/or DVD-R.
