Digital Scrapbook Creativity

Posting Accomplished

OK. So I was able to upload 5 digital scrapbook pages of a scrapbook portraying my husband and me. This was fun. And, I see that only 5 pages can be uploaded at a time. Questions answered. And I also just discovered that the pages are available in the blog. That's neat. Now...I have something more to play with in digital scrapbooking.

I thoroughly enjoy digital scrap-booking; that is, taking a photo and creating something extraordinary with it. My main objective is creating a a photo life story for my grandchildren. I take and/or collect all the photos I can get of each, and begin to make a digital scrapbook with their photos. On or just prior to their high school graduation, I print all the photos out, and making a photo-book as well as creating a DVD as a presentation should their parents wish to display it during their high school grad party.

I have prepared three such digital photo presentations and books, and another grandson is graduating this week, which makes my 4th piece of scrapbook work. I have just finished printing out his pictures, and will be working on the presentation in the next two days.

Each one of my presentations thus far includes approximately 200 pages of digital scrapbook photos, more or less. To me it is an extra special gift I am able to give not only to my grandchildren, but to my children as well. I get to share their lives again or relive it anew through their photos and add elements to make their lives glow. It is a tedious work of art. I appreciate each one who participates in this craft. It is a work of great joy and reward.

Some of my children prefer that I not display the scrapbooks on the internet while I still have to talk to a few others about it. But that is why I have not posted any of my on this site, as well as not being exactly sure how to got about it: do I display only a couple of pages or try to display the full scrapbook?

I am also in the process of creating a digital scrapbook of my husband and me--highlights of our life--maybe I will try to display a few, if not all of the pages I have worked on...!!
