   Here are some suggestions:

   1. Use the online scrapbooking site CropMom.com, where there’s no software to buy and no digital scrapbooking kits to buy. Just make your layout online using your photos and any of CropMom.com’s thousands of scrapbook graphics. You can purchase the high-resolution layouts for a small fee (or, better yet, purchase a package of layouts for less money) then you can print them anywhere you’d like.

   2. Adobe Photoshop Elements can be use to create digital scrapbook pages and is often used by beginneers who have advanced beyond CropMom. That said, there is a learning curve with learning how to use Photoshop Elements to create a digital scrapobok page, so be prepared to spend time learning how to do it.

   3. Corel Paint Shop Pro is harder to learn than Photoshop Elements but has more features.

   4. Adobe Photoshop is the most powerful of all of the graphics software for digital scrapbooking but it is quite expensive and very difficult to learn.

   5. Microsoft Digital Image Pro used to be one of the choices for digital scrapbookers, but I am fairly certain it has been discontinued. That said, perhaps you even have a coyp of it at home if it came with a scanner or something, so I thought I’d mention it.

   Finally, both Corel and Adobe offer a free trial of their products, so make sure you test them out to see if you like them before spending the money on them. Also, I would suggest you try CropMom, too, since it’s free. That way, you’ll have a better feel for what’s out there.
