These are great! I wish I knew how to design pages. Thanks for sharing.

You're welcome. You can design pages! Believe me if I can do it, anyone can.

I just choose a background and then add clip art or images that I've googled.

Also, I now own Creative Memories Storybook Creator. Oh my goodness, this has made designing sooooo easy. Give it a try, I was very unsure of myself and put off doing it for a while. Even though my designs are nowhere near as good as some I've seen, I'm happy with them.

I recently finished a ton of pages. I'll get them uploaded and get them on here! Glad to see we have some more SBC+ scrappers in the mix!

These are the cover and pages of an 8 x 8 album that I just made for my almost 4 month old niece. Because she was born in June that's where I started her book.The pages are a combination of SBC packages and my own stuff:

OK, here's my first attempt at this digital stuff. I used PSE9 and free layout stuff from Shabby Princess (Festive & Splendid). It literally took me all day to figure things out. Anyone ever notice that the "how to"s for these things are not very clear?

Wow, can't believe I just found this thread. Fantastic Layouts! I have been digital scrapping since 2005 and LOVE it. All my paper scraps stuff went on ebay,

coming back to share some of my layouts.

Here are some of mine:

I know this one is not Disney but I just HAD to show you all what we came home to after our last trip to disney. (2/10) We actually had to leave 24 hours early to go home because they had already canceled flights with the impending storm coming last winter.

Cute page! I gave up on trying to figure out how to scrap in PSE. That's why I use SBC+ now. It is much more straightforward for the digi scrapper. You seem to have figured out PSE pretty well, though! I know a lot of people like the Jessica Sprague classes for figuring out PSE.

ETA, I havent' posted a page here in a while, so here's a recent one:

thanks! I was able to figure PSE out with the help of some online tutorials and a lot of stumbling into the process. Now that I've got the basics figured out, I'll keep on keeping on. I wasn't able to do my own thing in SBC's free version and wasn't willing to pay for something that I really couldn't try out. Maybe at some point I'll take that plunge (depends on how annoyed I get using PSE).

Very Nice! All of these great ideas are what prompted me to finally try it!

Sbaird your pages are amazing!!!

I think my favorite it Typhoon lagoon, that palm tree is so realistic!

As for the snow. BLECH!!! I would have much rather been stuck in FL. We had the same thing happen to us but it was on our way down to FL. Thankfully the storm held off until we took off.

I would have rather stayed in FL too, but we weren't sure How long we would have had to stay, and the money was running out.

You Will!!! Keep learning PSE, the Adobe products are SOOOO much better and once you learn them, you can do soo much more with them. All the Big Designers use the Adobe Products.

I am self taught, started off with freebies and now I am on the creative teams for the stores - CatScrap, Weeds and Wildflowers, I also create for Designs by Leora, The DigiShopTalk, and I use to be on the design team for Digichick, but had to let that one go, got way to busy.

Glad to help if anyone needs it.
