DMT scrapbook

Last summer 2 of my nephews and 1 of my nieces flew out to Texas to spend a week with B-Hick and I.  I finished their scrapbook just in time for the second annual trip!!

I think it turned out rather well!!

Here are some of my favorite pages (either because of the photos or because of the decorating ;)

See how the word 'Texas' is colored like the Texas flag?!?!

Written in dots...

I LOVE these pictures!

I LOVE these kids!!!

hehe :)

Seriously though, come back!

digital scrapbooking

My eldest sister recently introduced me to digital scrapbooking.  You can download, for free, all of the fun papers and accessories that you would normally incorporate into a paper scrapbook page and then manipulate the paper and things on the computer, and print out a completed scrapbook page.  You have to have photoshop, or photoshop elements, or something like that to do it...but it looks like it'd be a lot of fun!  Check it out at shabbyprincess.com.  And happy scrapping!

Here's an example of one of the sets you can download.

photos

I love scrapbooking and to help my photos look super perfect I use these bad boys! (the pics are links to the sites)

Snapfish:
You can upload your photos and snapfish stores them for you for free! Prints are cheap and you can pick them up at Walgreens. You can make photo books, mugs with pictures on them, playing cards with pics, calendars, etc. My favorite feature though, is that you can share you online albums with friends and family!




Photoscape:

I use photoscape mostly for blogging purposes. But, you can use it to crop and resize photos for scrapbooks as well. I like it's page feature and used it on my personal blog for our header. And I also like the 'add words to pictures' feature, but picnik has cuter fonts! Photoscape's downside is that you have to download it, but I still think it's worth the space!



Picnik:

It's like photoshop, but free online. You can do all sorts of things. Crop, change the colors, add words, add stickers, sharpen, brighten, add effects....lots of stuff! I use picnik mostly to brighten and sharpen images. I don't really put a lot of pictures with words and stickers on them in my scrapbooks! You can always edit your pics on picnik though, and upload them to snapfish! If you want to do more advnaced photo editing, you can pay about $25 a year for their premium service.
