We'll Miss You - Photoshop Album



This summer I have fallen in love. His name is Photoshop. We've dated on and off thru the years but I just didn't realize his full potential. And then this summer I had an aha moment and my life has not been the same since...or something like that...
I have used photoshop a ton over the last couple years but I didn't realize I could actually scrapbook with it. It has revolutionized my albums. I haven't posted much because since the last post, I've made 5 albums. So I just now am putting them on the blog.
All I did was pull up the pics and put whatever writing on them. This is the great beauty: from my comp I uploaded them to Costco and an hour later I could pic up my pics. Now instead of messing with paper & lettering & accessories - it is all printed as one pic. So I just glue the pic to chipboard, punch a hole in it for the rings and I'm done! I have saved so much money too in not having to buy paper (90 cents for one sheet). The only part where I do old-style scrapbooking is with the cover and back.
Never before could I have done 5 albums in a month but now it is so much easier. I'll put the other albums up shortly. Oh and please don't look at my bad grouting job!
