Equipment

• Digital scrapbooking requires only a computer and digital photos. Traditional scrapbooking requires a large number of supplies, which can add up quickly in cost and require a large amount of space for storage.
  
  

Cost

• Purchasing the supplies for traditional scrapbooking can be expensive. Individuals who own computers and digital cameras can create digital scrapbooks using free downloads from the Internet. Completed scrapbooks can be stored on a hard drive or sent to publishing companies and printed into books.
  
  

Time

• Scrapbookers with limited time won't spend valuable minutes setting up or cleaning up when doing digital scrapbooking. In addition, with traditional scrapbooking a significant amount of time can be spent shopping for scrapbook materials.
  
  

Creativity

• Digital scrapbooking can allow an individual to make elaborate pages, even if she is not particularly creative. Digital photos can be enhanced and changed without needing to reprint them. Many companies have premade digital pages that only require pictures to be added to them.
  
  

Tip
