I digital scrapbook for fun and my layout about our last day of school won layout of the day at one of the forums I'm on and is featured on the main page of the site...Didn't expect that, but happy to have HOD being promoted!

That looks great. How do you digital scrapbook? Sounds like something fun to do.

I have a program called Digital Scrapbook Artist. It's much cheaper than Photoshop which is sort of the go-to scrapbooking program you'll see people talking about. It is also much easier to use and there are only a few things I can't do with it. You can also use GIMP which is a free program, but I don't know a lot about it. You can buy kits online, but if you search for free things you can find TONS of free stuff and tutorials for whatever program you are using. I used the free stuff for a long time, then applied to be on a team who promotes the kits of a particular designer. I get 3 free kits a month this way and do it all for free :) I started out with a free program too because of a deal at Amazon, but it had several glitches, so my husband bought me a newer version of the same thing. Feel free to message me if you have any more questions :)
