If you are interested in digital scrapbooking but don't know how to get started, Picaboo's free software, which comes with 18 themes, over 90 different page layouts, 30 fun fonts, and hundreds of backgrounds, is the perfect introduction.

Once you have downloaded Picaboo's software, start by creating a book using one of Picaboo's themes. Since each page of every book you create is entirely customizable, you can easily branch out by selecting your own page layout or choosing a custom background.

You can also easily add items that have been scrapped by hand. For example, the birthday card in the picture above was scanned and saved as a high resolution .jpg image (300 DPI).
