Hi everyone--

I want to introduce myself. My name is Kristi and I live in So. Cal. I'm new to digital scrapping but not to traditional scrapping. I'm really not using any software right now, but I have Photoshop and I'm going to buy the CK Scrapbook Designer. Photoshop is really hard. DH loves to play around in it, but he's not a really good teacher! I'm going to give the CK program a whirl and see what I can do. Then slowly, I'm going to play with Photoshop. I became interested in digital scrapping, because I have so many pics now that I have digital pics. Also, 5 weeks ago, I hauled all of my scrapbook stuff out to the front rooms hoping to get caught up, well, I did 3 layouts and that was it. It's still there in the front room! Another reason I'm interested in going digitally is that all of my albums are the same year after year. Since it's just DH and I we celebrate the same holidays and go the same places so it's getting boring! I still want to make traditional scrapbooks for things like our wedding, honeymoon, a baby album (when we have one), etc... but for our everyday things, I just want to do them digitally. Just looking at your layouts, has made me realize that this is the way to go!
