As I have previously mentioned, I've switched to digital scrapbooking. I have had people ask me where I get my ideas, what program I use, etc. So I'm here to answer some of those!
1. What program do I use? I use Adobe Photoshop. I am comfortable with it since that is the main program I use for my design studio. I am using a really old version, but it works for me!
2. Where do I get my "supplies"? I get all of them online and 95% of the stuff I use is free. My favorite site is DigiFree. I've also thought about scanning in some of my other supplies, but I would need a bigger scanner for the 12x12" paper.
3. Where do I get my ideas? I find layouts I like online or in scrapbooking magazines. Then I cut out the ones I like and put them in my idea binder with double stick tape. Then I have them all in one place so when I go looking for inspiration, there it is. When I find one I'd like to "scraplift" I take it out of the binder and put it on the front of it. Then, I try to recreate it with my own touches.

I also really like "Becky's Sketches" in the Creating Keepsakes magazine. They are simple sketches that give me a starting place - very helpful for deciding how to arrange photos.
In other news, Jack has quite the naughty streak I'm finding out. Aside from shredding his pants a couple of weeks ago, on Monday night he took a pen and wrote all over my computer monitor! Luckily for him it came off. Little stinker!
GD111: I am grateful for Spring! It has been so gorgeous this week. My tulips are finally blooming - I have been waiting for weeks!
