How do you do digital scrapbooking? Where do you get the disney stuff to pout with your pages? How? I would love to do this. But I need mucho help to get started. Any one out there like to give a lot of help to a newbie?

Mkymselady -

Thank you for the compliment. They are always nice to hear.

To get started you need a editing program such as one of the photoshops, paint shop pro, Digital imaging pro, etc.

Then you need to learn to use them. Each has a unique learning curve but there are lots of tutorials on the web. SBB.com and Rakscraps.com has lots and a great community to help out.

As for the kits and such, some I make, som I buy and alter, others are freebies. There are no Disney licensed kits available yet, hopefully some day. So you have to create your own ideas.

Let us know if you need more info.

Pardon my ignorance, but I am somewhat new to digi scrapping. Where or how do you obtain and use the Disney style font?

Google Disney Fonts and you will find it and more . Then open the font and reduce. open your photo edit software and go to fonts and it will temporarily be there. Don't close the font until you are done doing what your doing and save or your font will revert back to a default font.

There are links to several sites with some great digital kits as well as a site with several really cute font which could be used for Disney (or not) Digital pages...

everyone's pages are awesome!

I tried to PM you to request the Disney items, but keep getting error message
'error_postcount_too_low_pm'. Could you contact me privately. Thank you.

You are so welcome.. I am certainly not the top designer out there, but I can do the basics, sometimes more hehehe and don't mind sharing at all.

As a matter of fact. I just uploaded 4 more pages of Disney related items I have made over the years to my personal website.I hope to get more up later. The pages are hidden so that only DIS members will get to them. if anyone here would like to see what I have and download some send me a private message and I will email you the link to the pages. Again, all I ask is that we keep them in the family and not share the links to the world. That's the only cost

lamcnany- i got the same message....you have to have 6 post on the boards to pm someone...hope that helps.

Here is layout I just finished...I think my layouts are too "busy"...some of the layouts here are so pretty and artistic...hopefully with time and practice I can achieve that. Any tips are welcome.

The paper is Seebee's (what you can see of it) =)
The film strip from e scrappers
The other movie embellishments from Veronica Culley's Movie Time Kit at Digitals and the alpha from Jen Maceyunas Gator Alpha Kit also at Digitals.

Thanks,
Jessica

OK I've been too chicken to post any of my layouts but decided I needed to stop hiding my work and what a better place to start than the DIS.

Here are 3 layouts I did recently to complete our June 2006 trip (took my DD & her friend to WDW one last time before she left for college). I've done a few digital albums in the last year but this was my 1st completely digital disney album & I loved doing it. It's digital all the way for me for me from now on.

Please note...not sure why but the shadows seem exaggerated when I save them as JPG files but when I convert them to TIFFs & print them from PS, they look fine.

Your pages are really pretty! I love them.

I think your MGM layout is great Jessica. Sometimes it's hard to avoid "busy" layouts when it comes to scrapping Disney...there is just so much to scrap and I often feel the same way when I finish a page. Sometimes I look at a layout I just did & say "gee...I like this one" and sometimes I look at it and say "well at least it's done". LOL I still have 5 more Disney trips to scrap and I leave next Friday for another one so that'll be 6!

And thanks for the compliments on my layouts. Although I don't post much I do read this forum & admire the layouts everyone posts. With 6 more trips to scrap I desperately need the inspiration I find here. I'll have to try to be more active.

Wow! I love looking at everyone's layouts

I thought I'd take a dip in the digital scrapbooking world. I love how much faster it is. I am not sure I am ready to make the change though.

I need to learn how to do the torn paper look and manipulate things better. Here is my first 2 page layout...

(Looks very similar to the op's page...same kit )

 

[DisneyLisa]

Wow...beautiful pages. I can't believe they're your 1st! Love them. Great pics of your DD.

Just a thought here....but maybe if you took all these same pictures and elements and made this a 2-page layout instead but not add any more to it. That might make it less busy.

 

[Renysmom]

Those are great first layouts.

I love in the first three you made the photo's the focus. I often see layouts where it seems the photo's take a backseat to the kits. You have not done this.

Great start, your gonna be addicted real quick with your talent

I uploaded 4 more pages of Dis Digital stuff I have made. Your welcome to any and all of it. If you don't have the link you need to send me a PM and I will send it to you. As always, please don't share the links as this is for DIS members only.

I love your stuff!!! You are so creative.


I love this forum/post. I definitely have some ideas now about what I want to do with my layouts and how to make them a little more focused on just a few pictures instead of the crammed busy look I have now. I plan to redo the 3 pages I have done and spread it over as many pages as I need...I am in no rush to finish my book (although I do hope to have it finished by Sept when we go for our honeymoon )...I am really excited to make it amazing and don't mind taking my time with it...I am so thankful for all the great advice and inspiration I have gotten here.

Thank again everyone ! ! !
