I know that I am probably one of the only girls out there who doesn’t enjoy scrap booking. The truth of the matter is, I love looking at my photos – especially if they are of my kids! BUT, I get way too overwhelmed trying to keep up and making the books look good enough to my critical eye. I decided I don’t have the patience or find enjoyment in it – it isn’t one of my outlets obviously, it just causes me grief. I get frustrated if I cut a paper the wrong size or put a sticker in the wrong place. I have noticed, however, that I like creating things on my computer and I love to journal (the blogs have been helpful for that). So I’ve decided to try my scrap booking using Adobe Photo Shop CS3 (on my computer), my sister-in-law, Amy, inspired me to try it – we’ll see how it goes. I have just organized all of the many photos of all of my children- my goal is to get the last two years caught up before I have a baby. Pretty lofty goal considering the previous comments, huh? I am actually farther behind than that, but I thought I would try something attainable. (ha ha ha) Here I go … cross your fingers for me! I have 48 days left – Hope I can come up for air.

I have heard good things about online scrapbooking, you are my inspiration. Taylor still doesn’t have a scrapbook with journaling. Sad eh.

At least with digital scrapbooking, if you have the wrong size of paper you can resize it. If you put a sticker in the wrong place, you can move it. Although it’s not as hands-on, it is easier to control. And if you really hate a page, you can just recreate it!
