For about a month now I have been reading reviews online about Scrapbook Factory Deluxe and have been thinking about getting back into scrapbooking. I have to admit though that once I drug out all of my supplies and started looking at my pages, I started to double think this whole scrapbook decision. But after more and more reading online I bit the bullet and took the plunge towards digital scrapbooking. I’m not too sure how it’s all going to work out since I just picked the software up from my apartment’s office yesterday after work but I’m excited to spend the weekend playing with it and seeing what I can do with it and what I can’t.
I have a feeling I’ll be moving towards a hybrid method of scrapping – digital with traditional embellishments which will be fine. I just am hoping to cut my page creation time down from 1 hour per page to maybe 30 minutes per page and this is just for getting the color scheme going and layouts. So I will give a full report tomorrow after I run through installing the program (hope I can do that on 2 computers!) and making my first page. The next task will be finding a service to print my 12×12 pages. I hope that won’t be too hard or break the budget.

I am an avid scrapbooker myself and I have not taken the plunge to digital scrapbooking. I am curious, however. I gues one of my biggest fears is that my pages will somehow look cheap if I don’t do them myself. The other thing holding me back is that I really do enjoy scrapbooking. I wonder if there is a happy medium here.
