I finally finished some pages I have been working on for a while last night. Does anyone else get bored with one layout and start another before the previous one is done? Well, I had 4 started and finally finished them last night - I guess you could call me hyper active - HA!

I am so glad I discovered digital scrapbooking - I can get a page done in half the time it used to take me doing it the "cut out" way. Maybe I can begin to get caught up w/ all of my pics.
Anyways, here's what I have done so far....

Chesney,
Great job!!

I really like these pages; I have not done digital scrapping but am dabbling in it a few at a time and I love the simplicity of yours but yet they are not simple at all (hope that makes sense).

Thanks for the nice compliment, Vesta! I am not very good at this yet, but as they say practise makes perfect! :)

I totally understand what you mean - I am in love with all the neat pages w/ the grunge, buttons, rips, etc, but I still am learning how to do all of that stuff. The people on this forum has been tons of help. There are so many creative people here, I am just hoping that some of this creativity rubs off on me! :)

Wow, what scrapbook pages you have created. They remind you of a special time, and that is what we scrappers aim for.

Keep going....you have a good start with some wonderful graphic effects.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I appreciate it! Susan - I use the HP 9600 series photo printer to print out my pages. It prints up to 13 X 19 so I can print the 12 X 12 scrapbook pages.

I really like the way you did the background of the first one!! I noticed the other three earlier today and commented on the Safari. You have four really great pages!!

Do you use photo paper?:)

Media, duh!! Not printer....:o

I buy the 12 X 12 scrapbook paper - I found a bunch cleranced out at Office Depot - I like to use the matte not glossy.

Paper I just bought is the Premier Art Matte Scrapbook photo paper for Epson. It was cleranced out at Office Depot for $4.99 for 10 sheets.
I bought it all because the 12 X 12 size is usually very expensive.

Also, thanks to all for all of your nice comments.
