Hot off the Press...

My first printed digital scrapbook pages arrived in the mail today! I have been so curious to see how they would look on paper.  They are even better than I hoped for!!! I am SUPER excited and this just confirms that I will be doing most of my scrapbooking this way.

I ordered one-sided 12x12 prints from VioVio.com.  It was a little confusing to figure out how to order loose prints. You need to create a 12x12 photo book with at least 10 pages, then choose the loose page option at the end.  I think I chose "photo paper" as the paper type.  They are beautiful - not think like a standard photo, but more like a poster. The total with shipping was $14.47, so they were about $1.45 a page. Not too bad. I'm not sure if they ever have a sale? The shipping was $5.02 and it took almost two weeks to arrive.

When I created my pages, I didn't really think about the edges of them and whether things would get "cut off" when printed.  Caelyn's birthday pages are the only ones where this is evident, but it's not really that noticeable. In the future, I will need to make sure I keep that outer margin free of necessary elements.

They fit perfectly into my 12x12 drop-in album and I can't wait to order some more! :)  It's a good day.
