I have used them a ton! I so wanted to scrapbook all of our family stuff but was frozen in fear of having to learn PhotoShop (not enough time or brain power at this point in life) or the pages not looking good enough. Your simple method has helped me get over myself and admit I don't have time to learn PS and the pages made in Picasa are a-ok. Thanks again! :~)Emsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00118888933331276711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-26772802539332110482011-02-07T16:13:18.289-05:002011-02-07T16:13:18.289-05:00I have used your picasa tutorials extensively sinc...I have used your picasa tutorials extensively since first reading them. Thank you!!! Do you know when the semi-annual sale at persnickity prints usually comes on. I am almost finished the pages I need printed but am not in a rush to print them so I could wait until they go on sale. I just don't want to miss the sale.<br />katelynskoien@gmail.com<br />Thanks!Katelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135021081408422061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-64463720548839107002011-01-27T18:11:17.346-05:002011-01-27T18:11:17.346-05:00So I discovered your blog through Money Saving Mom...So I discovered your blog through Money Saving Mom, looking at your scrapbook pages, I noticed you had smaller text.

But I keep telling myself, that right now I just need to take lots of pictures. Some day in the future, my kids will be off at summer camp for the first time, or something, and I'll have time to look back at all the pictures and scrapbook them. That's my plan. Don't tell me if it's a bad one!

I shall be re-reading it over and over to try and understand the computer parts of it. I have 20 years of photos still to organize (I already did the first 12 years)and I needed some encouragement. Your very first idea is great! I.E., looking through the photos and deciding what events to record. Because I am organizing all 7 children's photos into envelopes with each year on them. THEN, after I've done that (and dated the Important photo and written who is in the photo and where it was taken on the back) I will choose out which ones to put on computer scrapbook pages...or regular pages... but I WILL DO SOMETHING because of your mile long post!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17128379696456444487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-37956464660096014882010-10-12T19:08:14.101-04:002010-10-12T19:08:14.101-04:00All this time I've used Picasa and had no idea...All this time I've used Picasa and had no idea you could do this...thanks for sharing!<br /><br /><a href="http://urbanbundle.com" rel="nofollow">patti - urbanbundle</a>pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03165813836504974123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-60703347306758130142010-10-12T18:32:06.723-04:002010-10-12T18:32:06.723-04:00oh thank you so much.....I am about 5 years behind...oh thank you so much.....I am about 5 years behind on scrapbooking and I haven't known where on Earth I was going to find the time/money/mental clarity to do it. But this, well I think I can actually do this! I love that I can just get one page printed vs having to do a bound photo book. I would love to put these pages in the same jumbo sized 3-ring scrapbook albums I bought for my boys from Exposures online a number of years ago.

We are expecting our first baby (and are soooo excited!!), and I planned to do the traditional baby book. However, this past weekend, I drooled over a friend's baby's scrapbooked first 3 months of life. I found myself thinking, "Well, maybeeeee..." You just gave me the OK to NOT scrapbook, and I love you for it. Now, I'm going to read the rest of your post to see what other wonderful things you are going to tell me! :-)CampDallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05465789010133933582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-65688226470526583412010-10-12T18:08:45.493-04:002010-10-12T18:08:45.493-04:00thanks, i'm totally going to do this! you rock...thanks, i'm totally going to do this! you rock.Mrs. Dunbarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01787061914736951331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-26449985014904554672010-10-12T17:24:31.604-04:002010-10-12T17:24:31.604-04:00You're a terrific TEACHER.
