If you’re looking for an inexpensive way to share your photos with family and friends, check out Online Digital Scrapbooks. This fun alternative to your standard paper-bound album is easily shared over the Internet. As this addictive hobby grows in popularity every day, more and more digital scrapbooking sites appear online to satisfy your creative needs. With Online Digital Scrapbooking you can upload your digital photos to one site and arrange them in a custom slideshow and then invite all your friends to watch it. You can add special tags to each photo to identify who is in the image or you can even add decorative frames to images to make them unique.
Many online digital scrapbooking sites offer users the ability to order physical prints of images you’ve uploaded to their website. Other websites will allow you to add your photos to certain products like coasters, magnets, mugs, t-shirts, or even a blanket. Can you imagine giving your mother or grandmother a blanket with pictures of the children/grandchildren on it, how cute is that? You can use your images to create a small scrapbook page with your favorite photos and then turn it into a greeting card or frame it to add to your pictures on the wall for all to enjoy.
As digital photography continues to gain popularity as the preferred option for capturing photos, the option of creating an online scrapbook is becoming more attractive. No longer do you have to spend a fortune developing a whole roll of film that you end up using half of, or using your own printer and using a lot of photo paper, then spending more money on paper and embellishments. That’s not to say all of that isn’t beautiful, all I’m saying is that it gets expensive. Now all you have to do is upload your favorite photos from your digital camera to the online scrapbooking site of your choice and let the creativity begin. Most sites have a wide variety of styles and sizes for you to choose from so you can customize your scrapbook exactly how you like it.
What’s so good about Online Digital Scrapbook? It can include so many different things. Here are some ideas:
When creating a page in your Online Digital Scrapbook to commemorate a special event you attended, such as a birthday party, play, concert, county fair, or sporting event, you can scan the invitation, the ticket slip, program, stat sheets, and upload it to your scrapbooking site to include on the page.
If you are scrapbooking for a baby, consider scanning your hospital ID bracelet, hospital bill, ultrasound image, doctor visit notes showing weight, height at age particular or even the imprint of your foot.
If you or any of your family members like to draw pictures, scan some of your artwork and add it to a scrapbook.
You can also scan a newspaper/magazine article from an event you attended or maybe even wrote and then add it to the pages of your Online Scrapbook.
My husband and I just finished remodeling our kitchen and wanted to show our family 2000 miles away how great it looks. We upload photos from our digital camera to our computer and then to an online photo service, create a scrapbook, and simply email them the link to view our kitchen scrapbook. We were able to share our new kitchen with them in minutes, instead of printing 4 sets of photos to send to each family.
The possibilities are endless of what you can do with Digital Scrapbooking Online. Let your creative side run WILD!
The best thing about online digital scrapbooking is that once you have finished your scrapbooking masterpiece, you can share it with friends and family around the world over the Internet. It’s also nice to know that if you or whoever is viewing your Digital Scrapbook online can also request hard copies of your Scrapbook to share with people who don’t have a computer.
Make it a great day and don’t forget to make time for crafts!
