Digital Scrapbooking

Recently I decided to make the switch to digital scrapbooking. As Dan says, "To do all the beautiful scraps of your family and all of the friends that we know." I finally started my first layout yesterday after collecting some "supplies" online. I love it! It is so nice to be able to scrapbook without dragging all of my stuff out onto the dining room table only to have to put all away in an hour. I can start a page, work a little then save it and leave to do something and come back to it in a few hours, or a few days. There are lot of amazing resources out there. Here is a list of some of my favorite sites thus far:
DigiFree - A search engine that searches for free digital scrapbooking things
Here a Scrap - A blog with a lot of cute free kits
Shabby Princess - Another blog with amazing free products
Scrapping Simply - A great priced printing place for pages (cheaper than Costco!)
The Daily Digi - A blog with designer interviews, freebies and even crafts

I've decided to share some layouts with you all every once in a while. I'd appreciate feedback! Otherwise, enjoy!

I have considered doing digi myself, but how would I print them out? I forgot you must have a cool printer with all your photography you do!

I'm not planning on printing them myself - I'll probably get them printed at the link I posted.

What fun pages, and such a creative way to do your scrapbooking! And the boys are as cute as always.

Don't you love it? I do most of mine on scrapblog now. When we get it up and running, our business is going to be able to all that and print it all too. It's going to be great. The only thing that I like to add to it is a few embellishments after their printed. That's how I did Tryzden's announcements and I was pretty proud of those. Glad you seem to like it too and the pages look awesome! Since it saves me so much time, I might actually be one of the first mothers to finish my kids' scrap books. Huh!

I keep wanting to try and do it and then I get flustered trying to figure it all out on my adobe. I would love to learn to do this... but what would I do with all my current supplies?

Do you use a particular base program like photoshop and download all the kits into it? I'm kinda intimidated by that. I need to finish catching my kids up to the same point in old school scrapping, then I plan on going digital. My hubby will be VERY GLAD to see all my scrapping stuff get put away for good...
