I have a great new addiction. I'm pretty sure the hubs doesn't appreciate this because the last day and a half the house has kind of been put on the back burner while I worked on my new addiction. What is this new addiction you might ask, well confession time...it's digital scrapbooking. I absolutely, with every fiber of my being, hate, yes that's right, hate scrapbooking. It takes way to long, makes a big mess, and never looks good when I'm done. Well I've now found a way that still takes a long time, but doesn't make a big mess, and if you don't like the page when its done you can easily change it. I've been using the 30 use trial of Photoshop Elements and I love it!!! I'm currently on my last use of it so I have to leave it open otherwise it's good bye Photoshop until I can justify buying it. I have finished our family 2009 scrapbook it just needs a few final things and I will send it off to Shutterfly to be published. FYI they're having a sale right now you get 30% of a book. Sweet!!
Here's two of my pages. Now remember I'm not talented in the scrapbooking department so no making fun!
PS I got all of the stuff for free from Shabby Princess. The link is on the left side of my blog.


Great pages!
ReplyDeleteI am a digi scrapper, too! :) PSE is worth buying. They always have rebates with it. Even at Sams club ot Amazon. I wish I had known when we were neighbors! I could have shared a ton of stuff with you! Its addictive, for sure!
I have PSE but have yet to use it...but I WANT TO!!! I put it in once, but didn't get it. I need to read the instructions. I also bought a new one called Storybook Creator from Creative Memories. You know that blog we love? Controlling my chaos? She uses storybook. I just need to sit down and figure them out. Maybe you can tutor me on PSE. Your pages are awesome...and I am with you, I HATE regular scrapbooking! :)
ReplyDeleteOh man, I wish I would have known you were into to it Arlene I would have picked your brain for ideas and how do use elements. How do you get to Jessica Sprague? Becky you and I will have to figure it out together. :)
ReplyDeleteCute pages! Gosh that would save SOO much time!
