Welcome to My Blog

Here's the first page I created using My Memories Suite 2.0.

The paper and elements are in the software. I decided to start out easy. I've downloaded tons of free papers, elements, alphas, etc., but I wanted to try to ease into my adventure. (Yeah, I'm the girl that has to test the water in the swimming pool with her feet before she slowly eases herself into the water. No jumping right in for me!)
After I created this layout, I somehow found my way the digital scrapbooking blog at The Pink Toque. Not only did I find more free downloads, but I also learned that Lesley has posted tutorial videos on YouTube. I haven't watched them yet, but I saved them to watch later.
I realized something very important tonight. I don't have my digi scrapping supplies arranged right! Yeah. I just went to try to create a cute little picture for the top of my blog. (Hopefully, it'll be there soon.) I arranged most of my stash in folders by store, designer, etc. I quickly learned that isn't really functional. I guess my next step is to rearrange my goodies by what they are. I'm guessing it'll be a lot easier to find the paper I'm looking for if I have all my papers together. My new dilemma? How do I know who designed what or where I got it? I guess I'll figure it out as I go. I'm not sure if my anal retentiveness is a good thing in this area or not. :/ Oh well.
Off to reorganize . . . Again!
