my first attempt



well the first attempt that I'm willing to share
of digital scrapbooking.
I've been unwilling to explore, the thought of giving up paper, scissors, adhesive and all those amazing embellishments terrified me.
Or perhaps it was simply trying something new, what if *gasp* I failed?
Not to mention what on earth would I do with the thousands of dollars worth of supplies that currently collect dust in my little scrapbook corner? I Purchased Photoshop on the off chance I might some day want to try digital, it is loaded on my computer but unfortunately I lack the time or energy to figure out how to properly use it. So how did I create this? I discovered a website that allows you to create pages without the need to download anything to your computer. Curious I gave it a try, and no longer am I terrified of trying digital, it is amazingly easy to do. No mess to clean up, mistakes are erased with just a click, photos are chosen and adjusted with amazing ease. It took moments to complete this page, moments. Sigh, I see a change happening, change is good. Not that I'm going to convert completely, honestly I need to use some of that "stuff" I've been collecting all these years, and sometimes it's simply fun to play with scissors and paper and glue. (channeling my inner kindergartner one might say)
