Up until last month, I printed bazillions of pictures and put them into albums just like you. I also scrapbook special events like big vacations.<br /><br />But for our recent family adventure in Paris, I created a scrapbook online and then had a hard cover version of it printed and mailed to us. It's BEAUTIFUL! I love it! My husband loves the pages I've scrapbooked in the past, but he loves the book as well. It was so much fun, I'm not sure if I'll ever do "traditional" scrapbooking again.<br /><br />But that being said, I am like you. I want a real, in-my-hand album to flip through.Name: Holly Bownehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079363337603264641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6566879757638048475.post-52179822268965711832012-01-23T09:54:18.578-08:002012-01-23T09:54:18.578-08:00You know, it's funny...as I was reading the fi...You know, it's funny...as I was reading the first part of your post, I was thinking about how I feel the same way about books. You read my mind and completed my thought! I did get a Nook for Christmas and I love the convenience of being able to download a book right away as opposed to having to get in the car and drive to the book store, but nothing can compare to holding an actual book in your hands!Susan R.

I have many albums, but a lot of them are still in the original envelopes.<br /><br />I love the feel of a real book in my hands, but I must admit I'm leaning toward getting a Kindle. There are so many great books available for free.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Susan :)Susan J.

It just seems memories can be better preserved, you know? I too, am a book girl. I'll take a real book instead of the Kindle version any day. :)<br /><br />Have a good weekend!Karen Langehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18177923284595298347noreply@blogger.com
