Hello everyone

[slheflin]

I am brand new to any type of scrapbooking, although I am an avid, very amature, photographer. I have boxes of pictures and tons of pictures on CD/files/etc. that are just sitting around. I don't know why it's taken so long to figure out that scrapbooking is the way to go.

I have been married for 15 years and have 3 children: 14dd, 6ds, 4dd and also do home daycare for 3 children: 3yog, 2yog & 6mob. Oh, we also homeschool. Never a dull moment in my house :D

I look forward to learning a lot from the veterans here. I can't wait to show off my finished products!

I'd had PSP8 for a while now but haven't done much with it. We're leaving for Disney World on Friday and I'd love for my first scrapbook to be of our Disney pictures :o My kids have never been so I know I'll have LOTS of pictures to play with when we get home!

Welcome slheflin!
Check out the New to Digital link at the top of the page (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/Scrapping101/basics.shtml). And, then, try some of the tutorials (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/tutorials/tutorials.shtml).

I started here and had never really paper scrapped or digital and have learned SO much here. You'll be addicted in no time.

There's a forum, just for beginners to ask questions, so ask away (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=31)!

Can't wait to see your first layout! Sounds like you'll have some great pictures from your upcoming vacation!!
