Well, I somehow managed to get a wild hair today, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it.
I have posted several of my digital scrapbook layouts to my Facebook page, and almost every time I do, I get comments from friends saying they want to get started digital scrapbooking, too. I always try to sum up in a very short amount of space what would be involved in getting started, but it just doesn't do it justice. It's a complex topic! (I think that's why I like it so much!)
So it occurred to me today that I could use my blog to help some friends get started without having to spend hours upon hours in front of individual computers or make them spend some cash at an online scrapbook teaching site (although I love jessicasprague.com). Granted, it will take some time to learn much from my blog, and I can't guarantee that I'll have time to make detailed posts every day (for sure) or sometimes even every week. But if you're like me, you might not have that kind of time to sit and learn stuff anyway. A little is better than nothing, right?
Anyway, so that's my plan. I'll start off basic and get a little more complex as time goes on. Please be warned up front that I don't know how often I will be updating. But I'll do it as much as I can!
Before I get started, please let me know if you have any ideas for things you'd want to know as you get started with digital scrapbooking. Feel free to leave a comment below or send me an e-mail with your ideas for topics. And then stay tuned!
Great idea Corie! One thing that helped when I first got started was learning how to use templates - it really helped me get a feel for things. I also found lots of freebie sites and that allowed me to try out things before hand without spending any money.
