There is a wide selection of free scrapbook downloads availavble to those who want to create their own memory books. With the increasing use of the digital camera, it is getting easier to gather photos together (and other mementos) and to share them with family and friends in an organized fashion. The days of sorting slides are gone and are now replaced with laying out scrapbook pages. Our "Free Scrapbook Downloads Resources" section can help you get started without any start-up costs, except for the printing.
For instance, many sites have free scrapbook downloads of clipart, stickers, templates or pages. What is offered free usually changes each month, so you need to bookmark these as favorites in your browser. Some sites will alert you to new downloads, if you sign up for their newsletter.
You don't have to buy specific scrapbook software to enhance your pages. Many of your basic software programs have fonts suitable for photo captions, headlines, or poems and many no-charge fonts are available for free scrapbook downloads. Printing your text on a separate sheet of paper and pasting it to the appropriate spot is the safest way to add text to your pages. Clip art can also be easily modified and scaled in most software program.
Color printers are helpful for printing up any of your free scrapbook downloads. Remember to use acid-free paper for printing and roomy storage containers to hold all your supplies.
