Any other digital scrappers?

I started out paper scrapping but realized that instead of just making tags and graphics with my Paint Shop Pro....I been on a roll. I usually complete about 15 layouts a month. Its much cheaper, less mess, AND i can reuse my favorite supplies over and over in new ways as much as I want.

Here are some of my layouts if anyone would like to see

Do you print the pages out when you are done? What size albums do you put them in?

I loved the pages you had done!

Thanks! I have printed at home, at kinkos, at staples, at walgreens and am ready to try an online printing site. My albums are 12X12 but I sometimes print at 8X8 and mat them....

PS love the kitty's name Bellatrix...want to name our next pooch that

Thanks on the name. I do this thing where I start out with one name and make like 10 different nicknames from it. Right now, I can't stop calling her Trixie Belle...I'm such a dork!

Does Kinkos print 12" x 12" pages? Or Walgreens? I love the pages but i was wondering how difficult it is to get them printed in 12 x 12 and the cost.

thanks!

no when i print there I do them 8X11.5 or 8X8 with my own matting. There are a couple sites that prints inexpensively.

My daughter wants to know if she is named after the character from Harry Potter?

I haven't tried digital crapping yet, I am a touchy feeling and love to touch textures so I haven't tried yet and with I might my sister does it and has this big printer that will print 12X12 and they look great but I like to tough the things as I am going...

The Harry Potter movie is where I got the idea for the name. Even though the HP character is evil, I still fell in love with the name. I wanted to use it if DH and I had a daughter, but he said absolutely not, so I figured I could use it on the new kitten!

Thanks for all the info on digital scrapping... I'm definitely going to have to check into buying a software program.

try before you buy is the beginners digiscrappers friend! Most of the biggies (Paint Shop Pro, PhotoImpact, have full featured trial versions. Try one to see which works best for you. If you plan to make this a real hobby avoid the scrapbooking programs like the plague. They are simple and easy to use but most people outgrow those so quickly. JMHO
