Digital Tutorials

March 30, 2007 by

Now that I have found you some program options, I thought I would look into some [tag]digital scrapbooking tutorials[/tag] that might help you figure out your program. I know there are many out there, but I thought I would take some of them one at a time and just give you an idea of what I have found.

Tonight I am on the [tag]Cottage Arts.net[/tag] site. They have quite a few tutorials on many different aspects of the different softwares you can use. They focus many of them on [tag]Paint Shop Pro[/tag] and [tag]Adobe Photoshop elements[/tag]. I have linked to the Adobe and Corel websites so you can check these programs out. They also provide tutorials that would go with most any imaging software you might be using for your scrapbooking.

I have found their tutorials to be helpful, step-by-step, and easy to understand. The only problem I found was that not all of the tutorials apply to the most recent versions of the programs. I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0. I found that not all of the items on the tool bar are the same. Either it was me or one of them was just not there. Most of them are really great.

I definitely recommend checking out this site. Let me know if you know of any other great tutorial sites.

80’s Inspired Boombox Shaped Mini Album

I was a teen in the 80’s so this totally rad Boombox shaped mini album from Traci really speaks to me! She created a rectangle shaped black acrylic album with rounded corners, adding buttons and a handle on the top with a cover decorated to look like a real boombox with speakers, a tape deck, buttons and more. She used the Totally 80’s collection of products from Simple Stories that has lots of bright pink and teal colors with cool 80’s inspired patterns like black and white check and colorful graphics. There’s also load of fun embellishments like a Walkman, high top sneakers, retro TV, camera, hair spray can and more. 

I had huge hair in the 80’s and am embarrassed to admit how much Aquanet hair spray I used!

Traci has included her totally tubular signature flaps and pockets in the album too for some radical interactive elements too.

Visit the Artsy Album blog to learn more about this bodacious mini album project.
