Best place and reason for it. I did check Costco but couldnt figure out what the average price for an album. I'm thinking its expensive. Is it flexible creatively (collage pages, etc)? This forum s/b called HSN Scrapbooking

I've only dipped a toe into that pool - it is fun and creative for sure and fast and easy too, but it is very expensive to print out (checked Costco and Walgreens) and I never got as far as checking on how best to send it to the person for whom it is intended if I kept it digital. I suppose it would be easy to save them to a flash drive, either for yourself or to give to somebody.

And I never have figured out how to print out a card created on the computer. I got some free software when I bought a printer a couple of years ago and I could create cards, but could never get them to print out properly; however, I am not computer-savvy and I sort of consider printers to be my enemy and don't even have a working printer as this time.

I think you can create 6x6 or 8x8 pages digitally and for that you can use your own printer, but the ink could cost a small fortune.

Wish I could be of more help - good luck!

Is everyone still printing pictures and placing in albums? Or just saving them on a disc, or downloading on computer or showing them on FB? I was thinking of sending a disc to Costco to have them actually make an album, but then I thought of the cost.
