To those of you who hear of Digital Scrapbooking and think to yourself "No Thanks," I can relate to you more than you know. Believe it or not, when I first heard of digital scrapbooking, I was completely uninterested. Because I wasn’t keen on the idea of becoming a Digital Scrapbooker in the beginning either, I can understand that there may be others out there with the same first impression.
So, to all of you out there that aren’t sure if you would ever be interested in giving Digital Scrapbooking a shot, I hope you too may have a change of heart if you find that you relate to any of the following:
1. You wander your local bookstores’ aisles looking for a helpful How-To book when it comes to learning the software program Adobe Photoshop Elements or Adobe Photoshop.
You’ve always been interested in photo editing and you want to learn how to use Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, but despite the books you buy, the memberships you get, the magazines you subscribe to, and the tutorials you watch… it still seems a little confusing.
We get it. We’ve been there. That’s why Digital Scrapbooks and More does NOT follow the conventional and NON-helpful approach to learning and using the Adobe Photoshop & Elements programs. Instead of following the flow, and using conventional teaching methods that spend endless time and feature countless chapters reviewing all the tools, all the functions, and all the organizing BLAH techniques; our approach at Digital Scrapbooks and More is completely different .
We teach you how to use these programs by teaching Digital Scrapbooking. We figure, why review tools when you don’t know how to apply them? Why spend all day talking about organizing photos and projects at the very beginning when you don’t have anything to organize?! Digital Scrapbooks and More’s Getting Started Series has three short tutorials giving a helpful, though short-and-sweet overview of the software itself, and then gets IMMEDIATELY into actually doing stuff… Digital Scrapbooking!
Learning how to just get in there and start DOING THINGS within the program, like creating New Documents, Adding Digital Papers, Supplies, Photos, etc. and using the tools for modifying a Digital Scrapbooking Page is the best way to understand the program, to familiarize and really, truly "get" the tools, features, and concepts that Photoshop offers!
Our tutorials are simple, easy-to-learn-from, and thorough. Our tutorials start at the beginning and go to the end; always in order and in sequence, so you know what to do and how to do it whether it’s Digital Scrapbooking or Photo Editing.
2. You have a Digital Camera and like to use it to take photos.
If you have a digital camera and like to take photos with your digital camera, it should almost be a crime not to have and know how to use Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. Really.
How many photos have you taken where the image is dark, or the faces have red-eye, or you included too much in the photo, and need to crop it? These digital eye-sores are very quick fixes in Photoshop & Elements that can immeasurably improve your photo. Once you know how to make these super-simple, super-quick fixes to your digital photos, you will never go back to your old, ignoring ways! And we are here to help!
3. You want a raise.
If you have a career where you EVER make any type of flyers, handouts, or ever worked with digital photos AT ALL WHAT-SO-EVER (even just to take pics at the company Christmas party), and don’t know how to use Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, then it could be hurting your career without you even realizing it!
I have a friend who is a Real Estate Agent and does not know how to use Photoshop or Elements… and I ask myself why? Just taking the Digital Scrapbooks and More Tutorials would teach her how to use Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, fix all of her digital photos, and would make the homes she sells look their absolute best. No dark or dim images making beautiful rooms hard-to-see; but instantly brighten their colors again and make things look as great as they did when she snapped the pic.
It’s a shame because the better her photos looked, the better the odds that people would be interested in the property when they ran across it on the company’s website or on Craigslist. Not only that, but she could even make adorable flyers, using her Photoshop and Digital Scrapbooking skills, to set her properties apart from the competition.
4. You are interested in Digital Scrapbooking but come to the conclusion that you’re broke and can’t afford it.
Photoshop Elements is a one-time charge and definitely worth it! You can get some great deals on the Adobe Photoshop Elements software right through the Digital Scrapbooks and More website, and will use the software all the time. It runs approximately $100 or less.
Next, invest in low-cost tutorial training that actually WORKS at Digital Scrapbooks and More. Purchase digital supplies which you can use and reuse over and over again (unlike physical, paper or sticker supplies that can only be used once) and save some serious money!
5. You tell yourself that you just don’t have time to learn how to start Digital Scrapbooking.
Digital Scrapbooks and More’s instantly downloadable tutorials are 10 minutes long or less… so, really, I don’t believe you.
That said: If you didn’t relate to any of the above, then I’ll leave you alone. Otherwise, what are you waiting for?! Take our tutorials, get our supplies, and start Digitally Scrapping your own Digital Masterpieces as soon as today!
It’s more than just a hobby, it’s a passion!
Happy Scrapping,
Jennifer
