Welcome! First things first, relax and enjoy the gallery! Get inspiration, and get a feel for what you think your style is...then go and look for tutorials using your favorite program. After all that, jump in and start. Your first works may or may not be master peices, but who cares as long as you are scrapping a picture, or a memory that you want to remember. That, in itself makes a great layout!

Looking forward to seeing more of you around!

I agree with Michelle...Relax, take a look around, look at teh tutorials, download elements (don't think you have to make them right off the bat), just play around, but like Michelle said, the important thing is that you are scraping the pages.... preserving those memories...but most of all enjoy it!

I look forward to seeing your Layouts!

I dont have any idea at all how to start this...I feel like a dummy really I have Picture It for my software. What do I need to be able to do scrapbooking online? I went to the sbbsos site and I am going to go to the classes. I just feel like Im in over my head because I dont know the first thing to even do.
Maybe the class will be able to help me...I read somewhere here I need to purchase a ezine?? What is it first of all and where do I get them? I am really sorry about this, not knowing...

Welcome to SBB!! You've come to the right place nad hopefully we'll have all your questions answered really fast. Evryone is so great here so feel free to post all your questions right here. The Ezine is a great resource for tutorials and information on CG scrapping. Click the Store button at the top of this page to subscribe.

You also need to check out the Tutorials section which will walk you through some of the cool things that can be done using your software. You can also take a peek at the SBB School of Scrap which is offering some free and some pay for on-line classes. In addition we have an SBB orientation that is free and takes place on the first Monday of the month, so the next one would be the beginning of October.

HTH! Shout if you need any help
