Digital Scrapbooking is AMAZING!
Granted I will NEVER give up the paper ;)
...this is why I think Digital Scrapbooking is so great.
1. No mess to clean up... just shut down the program and flip the switch on your computer and BINGO! ...Your done!
2. FREE Supplies!!! Did I say FREE? YES! I said FREE!!! Ok so your computer is not free and is in fact a HUGE investment but all of you out there have access to a computer anyway, right? So on the the free stuff.... Its simple, most digital scrapbooking sites have areas that list the free downloads or you can browse through your favorite digital scrap magazine and they list free downloads or simply do a web search. Lots of people note it on their blogs... I'm not there yet but most people do. Some day I will be that methodical and note where each and every paper or element came from.
3. Easy Shopping! You don't have to leave home much less get out of your chair! The world is at your fingertips... none of the dreaded
"sigh...but *enter store name here* is so far away".
(Can you tell I have limited resources where I live?)
4. ALMOST... Instant Gratification! Ok so maybe not instant but dang QUICK! I did the below LO (layout for those of you not fluent in Scrapbooking short hand) in just about an hour. Now if this were paper it would have taken me the better part of 3 hours.
On to the good stuff.....

Ahem. Where is your "Happy Easter" post???
Aaah...this is a cute one!
And p.s. i figured out digital scrapping before you did :P
You're right - digital scrapbooking has lots of perks. And you're obviously very skilled and talented in doing it! Good for you. :o)
Your pages look awesome!!
I love the idea of it. No supplies except my computer and some image editing software. Now all I need is some imagination; which is what I lack with standard scrapbooking. I have tons of pictures and no idea how to arrange them on what color paper with what little frillies and what lettering font.
If I only had a smidge of imagination.
