So you might wonder what is the deal when it comes to digital scrapbooking? Doesn’t the word ’scrapbook’ mean something to do with pictures, glue, paper and cute garnishings? The answer is, of course, yes! But how does that have to do with digital scrapbooking? Well, digital scrapbooking is another way to put it together, but using your computer to create layouts.
Now that everyone has a digital cameral it makes more sense to edit the digital photos right from your PC.
So what are some other benefits:
1.) You have other choices than just 4x6's. If you create the layout on your PC you can edit any photo to the size of your choice with just a click of your mouse.
2.) It’s cheaper than traditional scrapbooking! Yes, you do have to purchase some embellishments and papers when you want your layout to look more "realistic", but they are less expensive and you can also reuse them time after time. The main cost involved is printer ink.
3.) They are easy to share. You can burn them all on a compact disc and give copies to relatives. You can send an email without having to scan. You can print mini albums as presents.
4.) Clean up is a snap. You can save a page and come back at later without having to put anything away. Everything is on your PC.
5.) You don’t have to go to the store - unless you want to . There are plenty of online stores for you to shop for embellishments, papers, designs, fonts, etc. and you get them immediately.
The online market for creating digital scrapbooks for people has taken off. This would be a great home business for anyone who enjoys the world of scrapbooking.
