Upcoming tutorials…
Wednesday, June 27th, 2007I thought it would be nice to give you a glimpse at what I am working on. Here are some tutorials in the works that, I hope, are a little different from the average scrapbooking tutorial you might find. The ideas for the tutorials related to different video game or mobile electronic devices really originated with my husband and his request that I make some digital scrapbook pages that he could access in different ways.
Scrapbooking for TV Viewing - Seriously cool. Scrapbook pages optimized for the Nintendo Wii and X-Box 360
Using GIMP for Digital Scrapbooking- This free open source program is my choice for photo editing and scrapbooking more often than not. I have commercial programs, but I love the GIMP.
