I have been itching to get in my studio all weekend. At the end of last week, between receiving the newest issue of Portals and purchasing a few really cool mixed media books/magazines - I've been totally inspired to get to work play. Since I am *incredibly* busy right now and really can't add making a big ol' mess, I've been playing digitally. One awesome thing about the printing company Love, Joleen Photography uses to print photographs is that they print in 12 x 12. This means I can completely design my scrapbook pages digitally and then print them out for my albums. I have the option to further embellish the printed version or leave it as is for the book. Not only that but how much money and resources am I saving doing it this way?! I can use my large collection of digital "papers" and elements over and over till my hearts content for free. Now that has Alex liking scrapbooking. ;)
PS- Click on the images for larger versions.
Seriously, I wish digital would have come into my life before regular scrapping! It does prevent the mess and most of the money spending ;) Great job!

Those pages are great! I would definitely do this over the traditional way! Such a neater, cleaner, less chaotic way of scrapbooking!
You will have to show me how you do this someday.
Now, go back to work, oops I mean play :)
