Works for me Wednesday...Digital Scrapbooking!

Works for me Wednesday bloggers can be found at the link at the start of this sentence.

So, what works for me? Digital scrapbooking, of course!

I have always liked the idea of scrapbooking. I loved reading about it, talking about it, and even going to events. But I did not get a lot of pages done when I was paper scrapping and I didn't feel like I was very good at it. (Remember that I am not very good at cutting a straight line.)

In one of my scrapbooking reading sessions, I was reading a special edition of Simple Scrapbooks about computer scrapbooking. My mother had gotten it for me because she knows I like computers and thought it might be a good fit. I read it with some interest but was kind of like, "Whatever works, but it's not exactly for me."

But one night, I was googling computer scrapbooking and found Scrapbookbytes, where I finally "got it". I could take my digital photos (which I was starting to amass A LOT of) and add them to a background, use my fonts and some backgrounds, and make a page. Then, I could make as many copies of it as I wanted to.

Here's the first page I posted online, which I think was  a scraplift of Brenda Kempf's page:

I simply scrap more when I digiscrap. So it works for me! I have been digitally scrapbooking for about 4 years and I think I've completed about 500 pages. That's pretty good for me.

I have a secret...I am adding another store where I will be selling my digital scrapbooking supplies! I'll tell you later, probably tomorrow. I want to make sure I'm all set for the big announcement! Just to be clear, I will be staying at Polka Dot Potato, too. I really love it there, but I also felt it was time to add another shop.

Have a super day, everyone!
