There are activities which people do that are inspired by
creativity and having an active imagination and this is where scrapbooking
falls. The driving force that fuels this art of creativity is the desire to
have a monument of memories of a place that is easily reachable. Scrapbooking
enables the freezing of memories in a vacuum of time and the colors, shapes,
words and stories that accompany each picture is what keeps it fresh. The same
applies to digital
scrapbooking where the computer acts as the canvas on which the
memories are saved. For a scrapbooking experience to be rewarding it is
important that the pictures used have an attachment to a special place, person
or event. This makes it easier for the story to be told and also creates a
memorable picture. So the next time you go on a trip and your digital camera is
full of pictures of people you do not want to forget, consider the value of
digital scrapbooking. While there is no good or bad way of creating a scrapbook
there are basic requirements of transforming a scrapbook into a classic piece of
art. Before there was digital scrapbooking there was the book version which is
a fancy version of the photo album as we know it. The book used is substituted
for a folder in digital scrapbooking where you will add your various pictures
as you collect memories. The advantage of digital scrapbooking is that the
folder never gets full because the storage of a computer is flexible.
The most effective way to
create a memory is to pick out pictures of someone, a place or day event and
put them in one group. After this step you are allowed to remove some photos from
this assembly both because of saving on space but also to remove the ones that
do not bring out the completeness of the picture as you want it. Even with
digital scrapbooking this selection and sorting stage are not skipped. All the
uploaded photos can be seen on a single screen and it is therefore easy to see
which one does not fit readily into the group. While some people prefer
preparing a space before you upload anything, others start by attaching the
photo and then decorating the surrounding area. There is no scrapbooking formula
provided that you as the creator of the pictures collected are not disappointed
with the outcome. It is important to decorate the day effectively and if
possible use items that point to the specific time and place. With digital
scrapbooking it is easy to pick up things and objects to use as decorations.
Just by using search engines to help protect yourself you are able to come
across unique backgrounds. Including clip art pictures and internal jokes,
known only in the family is a sure way of creating character around a picture
or a group of pictures. If a few family members are talked the art of scrapbooking
from an early age then the tradition of preserving pictures is enhanced.
