The use of digital scrapbook layouts can be a quick way to get a page together. It can also be a super helpful tool to get photos arranged and ready to adhere to a traditional scrapbook paper page.
I have had so much fun trying out new looks and designs as I try to keep up with all the photos stashed and waiting to be scrapbooked! Here are a few samples of some digital layouts.
This one i did to show the patriotic fun my daughter had this year for the 4th of July. She had two different outfits and of course posed for the camera each time! Using the digital layout I got a great looking title, journaling and photo layout. After I printed it out, all it needed was to be adhered to 12x12 cardstock a few embellishments and it was ready to go to the album.
This page I did really quickly with a pre-made template. I just dropped in the photos from the 4th of July fun and i quickly had a layout with mulitple photos ready to be scrapbooked and shared.
This page I did using some photos from a couple of years ago. I had not done any specific scrapbooking for that holiday yet, so I grabbed a few that would help show the memory of my Grandmother visiting that year. Again, it was a simple matter of adhering it to the coordinating 12x12 scrapbook paper with a couple of embellishments and it was ready for sharing.
Combining digital and traditional scrapbooking is a great way to save on time and make beautiful quick layouts. The ease of placing one photo or up to a dozen photos is a plus as you can move them and size them and crop the images with a click of a mouse. It is quickly becoming my first choice for scrapbooking when there are more than 4 photos to use.
