Create Books--Not a Mess

Not long ago, if you wanted to make a scrapbook you needed to prepare for making a mess.making scrapbooks entailed:

• Cutting pictures
• Coloring
• Pasting
• Dusting with glitter
• Using assorted writing tools to add text

Unfortunately, as good as the scrapbooks may have looked in the end, stuff inevitably ended up on your table and floor (and added cleaning time to the project). Plus, if you weren't careful, you could wind up ruining furniture or clothes. With digital imaging, these problems are now avoidable.

Since you can do all of these effects to your digital photos on the computer, you don't need most of those messy supplies. Plus, it can also save you the expense of buying a new blouse or cleaning a couch.
