Welcome to my scrapbooking series! As I find time, I will be adding various scrapbooking tutorials and other items, and this is the page where you will find the links.
Have you gotten into scrapbooking yet? It's a lovely way to preserve your most precious memories and histories. Scrapbooking has been around for several hundred years, but it has been the last 20 or so that folks have embraced it in a big way, and now with computers, the possibilites for scrapbooking have been greatly enhanced.
Scrapping is a deeply personal venture. It's a way to preserve memories. When you do a scrapbook, there is no right or wrong way - it's personal, it's history, it's art, it's about YOU.
Scrapbooks can include almost anything - photographs, drawings, memoirs, quotes, poetry, newspaper/magazine articles, recipes, greeting cards, and just about anything else that would have some personal meaning to you. They are decorated with any variety of elements such as buttons, string, ribbon, and so forth. You also add text elements to the scrapbook pages, such as poems, sayings, journaling, titles.
There are several ways folks do scrapbooking these days:
-
You can just create it with paper and real 3D elements, as a page to be included in a book.
- You can use computer graphics programs to create items, which can then be printed out and used in the scrapbook.
- You can create the entire scrapbook on the computer, just for digital use (e.g., posting it to your webpage, sending my email, etc). The project is entirely digital, not for printing.
- A combination of these methods.
My tutorials will show you how to create scrapbook materials that can be used either digitally or printed out.
The tutorials on this page were originally done in PSP 9, and as appropriate, I've made changes for PSP 7 users. PSP X users should also be able to do these tutorials without difficulty. I am in the process of updating all of the tutorials on my site so they will be compatible with PSP X, PSP 9, and PSP7.
Before completing any of my tutorials, please be sure to read my Terms of Use.
