Free Digital Scrapbook Fall Page

Hello Friends- it has been a long week.  Remember how I posted
about balance... yeah, still trying to figure that one out!  :)

In the meantime, I wanted to share with you something that 
I LOVE... digital scrapbooking!
I will always love scrapbooking with paper, but,  there is so much you
can do with digital scrapbooking.  Here are some of my favorite things::
1.  No glue, tape, glue dots, etc
2.  I don't have to store supplies anywhere except for files on
my computer.
3.  When I make a mistake I hit the "Undo" button which happens
a lot!  However, the "Undo" button does not work in real life. One
day I was helping clean Jackson's room and I put something in the 
wrong spot. Immediately my mind thought "Undo" but there was 
no undo button.  Yeah- I use it a little too much! 
4.  So many options of pages, ideas, papers, elements, etc...
that can be used over and over again. So, if I have a favorite 
paper or embellishment I can use it as much as I want to
and my favorite part
5.  I LOVE digital photo books.  I have tried 5 different
photobook companies and I have to honestly say that
BLURB is my absolute favorite!  They give you the best
quality for the best price and with the most pages.

Now, as for digital scrapbooking programs-
Which one should you get?
(and these are completely my own opinions)

If you are wanting to design- I would start with 
Photoshop Elements. It will do 90% of what Photoshop does,
but only costs around $100 compared to Photoshop which is around $600.
It does have a bit of a learning curve, but is so much fun to use
& perfect for design and scrapbooking.
You can also find some great tutorials 

If you are wanting a program that is VERY user friendly
for digital scrapbooking and a great price too,
Your best choice would be Memory Mixer.
They seriously are wonderful!!!!
I have tried 3 different software programs,
and I have to say my absolute favorite is 
Memory Mixer!  You can do so much
with their program, it's only around $40
and you can use the files over and over again.
Another great part about Memory Mixer is you
can use your digital scrapbook pages to
make a slide show movie- a great feature &
a great gift for your family or friends.

So, to get you started today, here 
is your very first free digital scrapbook 
layout for Fall. This is in a png. format,
which means you can add your own pictures
to it and print wherever you would like.

Have fun & let the creativity begin!
