I picked my second project - my trip to Germany with my mom earlier this spring - just in time to try the new beta digital storybook program.
Now I have to admit, that I love working with pre-made patterns, whether they are quilting blocks or page layouts. But when I put them together I usually want to tweek them just a little, to make them more my own. And although there are lots of options available in page layouts for the various books styles, I was craving more control. I don't have (and don't plan to purchase) expensive software which would allow me to make my own pages from scratch ... and lo and behold, look what falls into my lap.
This is amazing. Start with a blank page ... add a background ... one to twelve photos ... one word or a complete story ... amazing embellishments ... limitless possibilities. Since we had travelled in the spring, my concept revolved around spring flowers, and they became the semi-transparent backgrounds for all my pages. Add the photos of our travels, some castles and a story to tie it all together. Now this is fun. From what I have read on digital scrapbooking, we have all the components available to us, and it will be professionally published - I think I need at least 3 copies.
There are a couple of bugs to work out of the program befor it becomes available to everyone, but I think it is definitely the cat's meow!
