Serif Digital Scrapbook Artist 2 Software Review & Giveaway (Closed)

2010

One thing I do, and do well is scrapbookâ€¦.one thing I havenâ€™t done is digital scrapbookingâ€¦until now!Â Â I was asked if I would want to do a review on the Serif Digital Scrapbook Artist 2 software, and of course I said yes!Â Â At first I had went on the site, signed up for the group, and downloaded their free version of software and a few kits to start playing with.Â Â Â Not only are their free kits, other kits available for around $4.99 or so.Â Â Each kit comes with embellishments, frames, background papers, and alphabetsâ€¦everything you need to complete the page.Â Â Plus you are able to change the kits around, and create your own from the stuff you chose.

About a week after I downloaded the free software, and completed a couple of layouts, the software came for me to download.Â The download process was very easy; if you follow the steps you should be fine!Â Â Â The software is set up so that you can do just about anything.Â Â I love the ease of use with this, adding items from kits, or the whole kit itself to create your project.Â Â The best part of this software is they have tutorials right here on the site, so you can watch and see how to â€œdoâ€ something!

I was able to create 17 layouts with the free kits they had and what photos I have, and I still am not done yet!Â Â I can sit here and play with layouts for hours, in fact I have!Â Â Â The software is fun to play with, and fun to see what you can come up with.Â Â For the albums, I am used to having a basic albumâ€¦create a page and put the page in a page protector.Â Â Digital albums can be done differently, spending a few hours creating an album for your family, and then give them away as gifts for Christmas or birthdays.Â Find a good company that binds books, I found a number of them when I looked it up and specials to create your own album/book!

The site itself lets you share your creations with others, you can go to LyndaJinco atÂ www.daisytrail.com and you will find some of the things I have made and added to my layout album.Â Â This software is well worth the price, and well worth the time you spend in learning what it does.Â Â Â If you have no clue what you are doing, start with the tutorials.Â Â I found it all very easy to navigate, especially if you have Photoshop experience.Â Â I am certainly not a pro with the software by any means, am still looking at the features it does.Â Â At this point, I am totally in love with this software, and you would have to force me to use something else.
