Got the scrapbooking bug

The digital kind anyway. I've always wanted to do scrapbooking but never had the patience or the creativity to work with paper elements. But digital scrapbooking, yes this is my thing. As an early birthday present for myself I got myself some nice software. It's pre-loaded with templates and elements, but you can change and play with everything from backgrounds to graphics to fonts. I'm just loving it. I have so many digital photos to play with, I could be busy for a long, long time. I need to get some good paper to start printing on. I tried printing on the glossy photo paper but the colors ran. I did better on regular paper, but I want something you can put in a scrapbook. I think I'm going to try a matte paper next.

Here are a few of my creations so far -

Snoopy Christmas

Baptism Day

Santa Claus Lane

    Casey, I'll definitely check out Shawna's blog. My friend Taran always recommends scrapbook-elements.com and she makes and sells her own kits and templates there.
