Product Description
It’s the next phase in the scrapbooking craze! And this creative resource is the first of its kind—the first to focus on the use of computer hardware and software to unlock an exciting range of creative possibilities. Crafters will explore the many ways digital elements can add pizzazz to their scrapbooks: they’ll learn to manipulate pictures with photo/image editing software, use scanners to create themed background papers, and draw on clip art for decorative accents. Going even further into the brave new world, there’s information on creating all-digital pages, putting together a slideshow on computer, and pooling various techniques to stage a “digital family reunion.”

I borrowed this book from the local library-loved it so much that I bought my own copy! Excellent pictures and explinations of exactly how to add digital scrapbooking into your traditional scrapbooking world.

Luckily I didn't buy this book, because it did not provide any help to someone who already can use a computer. I was hoping for information on creating page layouts in photoshop or other editing software. Instead I got a lesson on scanning photos into the computer. Most of the projects in here involve editing the photo on the computer, then printing it out and making a regular scrapbook page. I wouldn't recommend it for people who want to do digital scrapbooking.

This book turned me on to digital scrapbooking with its overview of what could be done. Most of space is projects--which I would never do, but suggested possibilities. The "how to" is mainly if you purchase scrapbooking software--which I also don't plan to do. So, if you know nothing, book is inspirational, although, being a hard cover, also expensive.

I was extremely disappointed in this book. It is for people who know basically nothing about a computer. I didn't want a computer lesson, I wanted digital scrapbooking info. I didn't get any. I completely wasted my money on this book.

The author shows step-by-step how to remove red eye from a photo, or cropping a photo on the computer. I was impressed with the color photos, the 1-2-3 explanations, and the creative examples she shows.
I haven't sat down at the computer yet to put this into practice yet, but in reading the book, I felt I was ready to go.
My niece showed me what she was doing with digital scrapbooking, and you can get some really terrific pages using this method.
