Course Description

Scrapbooks have been part of the American way of life for generations. Most of us were raised with scrapbooks and probably even helped make them as children next to our mother's or grandmother's sides. However, with the advent of the home computer and easy access to the internet, the world of scrapbooks has changed forever.  
 

Digital scrapbooks have blossomed and the trend is growing fast. No longer do you need to store and stash boxes, trays, and files of odds and ends to build your pages. Now, you have an entire craft store right at your finger tips. This course guides you along in the process of learning to use these tools.

Lessons cover how to upload, crop, and color your favorite family photographs. How to incorporate the magic of text and font, and how to outline and present your story in an exciting and natural flow. Plus much more.

 

If creating scrapbooks with your computer is what you're looking for, then this course is for you. Easy to follow lessons will take you from ground zero to the finished product in your hands. The best thing is, it's fun and easy. Get started now!
