    if you want to do Digital Scrapbooking here is a good program. I love it! It’s called StoryBook Creator Plus the Cost is $59.99 it’s great and the best thing is you can upload your pictures and have a Hard Cover Book made of your family pictures and your words that you want to put in it. There are some other things you can get as well listed below:

    Get Started With a Click It 1 this comes with StoryBook Creator Plus Software
    Digital Doodles and Swirls Content CD
    Digital Expressions & Kit Collection

    The cost for this is $99.00, but you get a coupon for $39.95 towards a Book of your choice at the end it’s like getting your own storybook FREE.
    The Above kit is a really good started for Digital Scrapbooking, plus it’s alot cheaper then Adobe Photoshop and easier to work with. I hope this is of some help to you.

    No – you could always try the free downloadable digital scrapbook software at http://www.scrapbookflair.com for starters.

    If this does not do what you want then you can buy software created specially for this.

    I use a Printshop program called Creating Keepsakes (I think) which I purchased for around $20 in Australia

    No, you don’t have to have Adobe Photoshop or any specialized software. Just go to CropMom (http://www.cropmom.com), register and log in. Then upload your photos to the My Photos page. Click Get Started, and you can start making digtial scrapbook pages right now. It’s free to use CropMom.

    CropMom offers thousands of high-end digital scrapbook graphics for you to use in your pages. You can choose from a selection of standard digital scrapbook canvas sizes. You can add your own text. You can place, rotate and resize photos and scrapbook graphics to create your own work of art.

    CropMom lets you download the low-resolution JPEG file of your layout for free for sharing on the Web or for e-mailing to friends and family. You can purchase the high-resolution JPEG of your layout for a small fee for high-quality printing at home or by a photofinisher.

    Before you spend money to purchase graphics software that is expensive and difficult to learn how to use, try digital scrapbooking at CropMom first.

    There are lots of options, and Photoshop is the most expensive of them all.

    I am a consultant for Heritage Makers. It works similar to CropMom above except you can also have items printed directly from our site. You can print everything from a 5×7 card to a leather 11×13 album. (Retail prices are listed at http://www.heritagemakers.com/shop/ but consultants sell them for less)

    We have a nice range of art available with a free membership, and more extensive selection with a paid membership. So you can sign in, upload some photos, make a few projects from scratch or by customizing our templates. Then decide where you want to go from there.
