Hello all!
Excited to find this place (a friend from another forum directed me here for the PSP tutorials so I could make a "scrapbook sig") and excited to be exploring digital scrapbooking.
I'm an avid, but erratic, paper scrapper - I work up my LOs in spurts - and will probably never give it up completely for DS, but I'm very interested in learning more about it.
My DH (does that forum speak apply here as well? If not, I mean my hubby) are trying to have our first baby, so that will probably be my next album project. I would like to be able to use DS to complement both the paper scrapbook and the future baby's site.
The album I am currently working on is for my brother - he was married in May and I gave it as my gift, and have continued to add to the pages as I work on them. I would love to use DS to supplement this album due to the cost of PS (cost is always a factor, is it not!), so some of those pages will be my first experiement with DS.
Now for my questions!
Where can I find elements on this site that are offered for free? I clicked Downloads, but there is nothing there but a message stating I do not have permission to view the images in this category. Is there a "recommended links" list somewhere for more elements on other sites?
Printing - I only scrap in 12X12 - how do you print those size of pages when/if done digitally? I could not afford my own special printer, so should I be looking for a printing shop with a certain size printer? Or do 12x12'ers adapt 8.5x11 pages to their 12x12 albums?
Last question - anyone else from NW PA? Would love to talk to you if you are! As well as those of you who aren't, of course!
Thanks!
