What is a digital scrapbook?
A digital scrapbook is very much like a traditional scrapbook! The differences lie in how the pages are put together. In a traditional scrapbook, you would tape/glue printed pictures, embellishments, stickers, etc. onto a scrapbook page and insert it in scrapbook. With digital scrapbooking, all the pictures, background "papers", embellishments and stickers are placed on the page digitally and when it is sent to the printers, everything is printed onto the page. You can then insert it into a tradional scrapbook or have the pages made into a coffee table style Storybook.
How does it work?
You provide me with all the pictures you’d like to include in your digital scrapbook. You can also give me any journaling type information that you’d like to include with your pictures. I take everything and design a digital scrapbook for you. Before printing, we meet for a preview of the digital pages. If you’re happy with it, we send it to the printers! If there are things that are not completely satisfactory, I make the changes before sending it to the printer!

Why Creative Memories Scrapbooks?
I determined long ago that the only scrapbooks that truly hold up to the kind of life I want out of a scrapbook are Creative Memories. Because I want to be able to back the product you purchase through me, I will only use Creative Memories books. Creative Memories gives a lifetime guarantee to every scrapbook they sell. However, I am willing to provide only the printed pages and you may purchase the scrapbook of your choice.
