Another Week in Review

I've been loading a bunch of my other layouts over on facebook.  I think it's just too much posting them all up here, although I'd love to show them all to you.  Maybe I'll do a 'scrapbook' blog day, and post a layout I like, and the reason I like it.  :)

By the way, for those who are wondering, I use Storybook Creator 3.0 plus software.  I also use gimp (mainly to create paper/embellishments, although I can use SC for that as well), but SC3 is so easy to use... now that I've been learning more, I'm finding more fun things to do (recently learned how to make text 3D... not just with a shadow, but looking like metal or glitter glue or something).  Perhaps, if there is an interest, I can post some tips for that program as well.  Or maybe even some .page layouts (they would only work with SC however...).  Any thoughts?

I know... life is busy... where am I finding the time to scrapbook?  Thankfully these pages don't take too long.  I did 12 this week.  Yeah... 12.  I can hardly believe it myself!  I'm now on September 2009!  Gotta catch up.......

Have a great weekend, everyone!

I'd be interested but I have to invest in some software. Is Storybook Creator one that you would suggest?

I would definetly suggest Storybook Creator! It isn't overly expensive... at least it wasn't for me. I got it as a gift from my aunts, and when I upgraded to 3.0 from the 2.0, it only cost $25. It's very simple to use and I've been learning more and more as I go. They have a number of free layouts and stuff you can download to get started, and after you get used to things you can completely make your own layouts, use your own free paper, and so on.

You can also do similar in Shutterfly, but it isn't as customized. That is online. You have to be connected to the internet to use that one. SC is on your computer, so you aren't limited by internet access.
