I've tried the traditional paper scrapbooking and, quite frankly, hated it. After giving digital scrapbooking a try my opinion has changed drastically. I have now officially made a page a day this week for a total of four pages. Shawn kept asking what you do with the pages afterwards and I just figured a slide show somewhere, but I visited Amy yesterday and she showed me what she does. She simply prints off the pages as an 8x8 and adds it into a photo album and presto... instant photo scrapbook. I have figured with all my photos I would just put together a simple plain piece of paper photo album for people (eventually customers) to look at, but now maybe I can do something a bit more involved and tell a bit about the location of my good shots. I usually have an interesting story behind them all. Apparently I have become marginally obsessed. Obsessed enough to start a collection at Scrapbook-Bytes. Go take a look at what I've done so far.
On other news I just got home from dropping off another two resumes. I think I have a total of four that I remember at this point. At least two that I've been turned down on and one word of mouth that never really resulted in anything. It is frustrating and I'll be the first to admit it. The most ideal position of all would be if my photography took off. I made another sale in my Cafepress store on an image I don't even have in my portfolio. I figured I would get that updated this afternoon with the photos from South Carolina that I have on disc.
So off to stare at Photoshop some more.

Kendal~ I just love your pictures, especially the one's from Okanogan. Amy is my sister-in-law, so I got here though her blog. I grew up in Okanogan and it's been years since I've seen the Homecoming Parade! Great job on your pages, also. Amy is such a great inspiration. Keep up the good work!
Excellent work, Kendal! I've yet to attempt the digi world of scrapbooking but I love looking and Amy's and Lisa's work. They have both offered to get me started but I'm afraid that I won't be able to quit once I start! I'm going to be checking back once in a while to see what else you've done. Keep it up!
