Creative Digital Scrapbooking: Designing Keepsakes on Your Computer

With the explosion of digital cameras and the wealth of accompanying digital images, digital scrapbooking has emerged as an activity that brings people together to tell their stories, preserve their memories, and perhaps share a little gossip over the act of creating digital scrapbooks. Here to help you do so with creativity and panache is one of the first books on the topic from veteran technology and lifestyle writer Katherine Murray. Using a combination of friendly how-to instruction, full-color illustrations and examples, personal anecdotes, and a grab-bag of creative tips, this high-energy volume takes you through each of the steps in creating a digital scrapbook--from planning and capturing quality photos to choosing fonts, collecting clip art, telling the story, laying out pages, sharing the scrapbook, enhancing it with video, and more. Also included are a resources appendix and a guide to scrapbook-friendly hardware and software.
