For Christmas, I made a book of all of the Grandkids on my parents side. There are now 23 of them with 3 more on the way (Rachel, Andrea, & Amy). We had such a great time seeing most of them over the break. It is crazy to think how fast our family has grown in the last few years.

Soooo cute! Okay - you have to give me some tips on digital scrapbooking, cause I don't think I'm ever going to have time to do it the regular way with the way things are going at my house :) Where do you get your "papers" and fonts? I'd love some ideas! Brady has a scrapbook, but it's still shrink wrapped, and all my kids books stop about 7 years ago - I'm sooo behind!
I agree...I have never been great at the whole scrapbooking thing (and I only have 1 kid!) Digital has been better for me because it's all on the computer. I do my digital scrapbooking in photoshop. For me the best tutorial that I ever did was on shabbyprincess.com I hadn't worked much with photoshop, so this was perfect for me. I have found some great papers on a few websites. I always opt for the freebies (and there are a ton), so I have never bought any backgrounds...I also have created some of my own. Some websites include:
shabbyprincess.com
freedigitalscrapbooking.com
simplycleandigiscraps.com
twopeasinabucket.kaboose.com
Most of my fonts are from the CK lettering cd's that I bought at Roberts - but I am sure you can get a lot of the same free fonts online as well.
It definitely takes time (especially when you are first starting), but I am learning more every day and it is definitely becoming easier. Plus, it makes for easy clean-up!
Let me know if you have more questions :)
