Chapter
1: Designing Digital Layouts
PDF File (0.4 MB)
This chapter explains how to get started with digital
scrapbooking, including software recommendations. I go into detail on
the advantages of digital scrapbooking and give suggestions on ways
to share your layouts with family members and friends. In addition,
this chapter includes:
- Tips for buying
online products
- Things to avoid
when designing a digital page
- A step-by-step
tutorial to easily creating your own layout using a kit included in
the bonus graphics package (the digital papers are even precut for
you). You should be able to complete this layout in 5-10 minutes!
- Suggestions
for creating realistic shadows quickly
For those of you
who are already experienced digital scrappers, you may wish to advance
to later chapters in this book.

Chapter
7: 15-Minute Layouts Gallery
PDF File (1.4 MB)
In this section, I challenged myself to spend only about
15 minutes on each layout (give or take a couple of minutes). I give
several suggestions to help you complete your digital and hybrid layouts
faster. Then I show several layouts, explaining with each layout what
supplies I used, how I assembled it and why it works from a design standpoint.
