I started a scrapbook for my older daughters first year. I only made it to month five. It was so much work that I just didn't have time for. Now I have a digital scrapbooking program that I love. It is my favorite way to scrapbook now!!

I prefer the tradional method of scrapbooking. I haven't really gotten the hang of it, much less the digital scrapbooking.

I have not tried it but I am not sure I would like it. I think it's because most of the time when I scrap I do it with friends or family and it would lose something in the art work if I wasn't putting my head together for new ideas with the ones I care about most!

True. When you are doing the traditional method, you will get lots of ideas and will def have fun.

I have never used scrapbook very much. I am sorry to say that I am not very good at computer. I know just a little, the very basic knowledge about it. Smiling.

I just recently started scrapbooking and I've gotten quite a few pages done (I'm a student so I have the time lol) but to be fair i have tried digital scrapbooking as well with Adobe Photoshop elements 5.0. I have to say i much prefer working on my pages in the traditional way, the digital method just doesn't give me the same satisfaction of a job well done. I have to admit with the free kits around for digital it makes it easier but again, it's a few clicks and suddenly you're done, not like working with raw materials and sticking yourself to everything while trying to get it placed just so!

I personally like the hands on... makes it more personal. I have never tried the digital scrapbooking though. what program do you use? and do you print them out?


mom22wills (9)  2 years ago

Yeah I definitely agree with you, there is something about manipulating the actual elements that just gives me a better sense of satisfaction. The various textures of the paper and other embellishments and the gluing and stitching (my new technique I'm putting into practice:) is actually quite calming. Although I do use a Pazzle to create some page elements I still love actually working on my projects 'traditionally'.

I like the traditional method of scrapbooking also. I have experimented with digital scrapbooking, but I just felt like I was cheating. Plus it costs alot to get the pages printed. But one thing I did do to the pages that I printed out, I added some embellishments and ribbons to the page so it wouldn't look so flat. That's another reason why I prefer the traditional method, I like to make things "pop" out on my page.

I have never done digital scrapbooking, But I feel I would still enjoy standard scrapbooking more...I love all the stuff that goes with it...I really feel like I'm making something and I just love designing with all the cute little embelishments and such...I definitely don't get that kind of rush from other digital stuff I have done.

I do regular scrapbooking. Got started not long ago.
I love it, so much fun!

I would love to start digital scrapbooking but need to get a better photo program. Right now I only have Paint Shop Pro but would love to get Photoshop!

I'd much rather do it by hand. Gives me more a satisfied feeling of accomplishment and it is great "therapy" and just a pleasure to do. You can do so much more by hand. Digital is limited - I mean no brad, eyelets, bulkey embelliehments, envelopes, fibers, buttons - all those things are my favorite things to use! Especially bulky stuff. Tags and glitter and all. My blog Scrapbook Layout Ideas (link is in my profile) has all my personal layouts. I have just been sharing my ideas, giving tips and suggestions - just encourageing scrapbooking as I believe it is just the best way to preserve memories. I started my grand daughter on SBing when she was 4 and she just loves it. I started with 20 years of photos of my kids (one kid was 20, theother 16), then backtracked from there of my own life - and back to a kid days. 45 years organized really quick and look at that album often! Love hte memories!
