I noticed that not alot of chattering going on in this neck of the woods... And all you paste eaters are more then welcomed to throw your 2 cents in!


So.. What is your Favorite thing about Digi Scrapping?




Mine is that i dont need an entire room to Digi Scrap. All i need is a computer and a comfy chair. There is nothing to pick up or vacuum up. All i have to do is click on the X when im finished!

How about you? What is your favorite thing?

hahaha - that I can hit the "undo" button! I am so much more willing to try different things because of this!

My favorite thing is the undo button!! And I love being able to change the colors of my elements to work on any layout!

Mines kinda of a tie!

1) Being able to use the same kit for so many different layouts

2) No Mess!

3) The undo button

No mess is BIG for me!

Right now, I'm mainly a paste eater, but I dabble a bit in digi. (I just did a father's day card for my FIL- very quick and easy!). But my favorite part about digi is being able to take the laptop on vacation with you and get some work done. It helps me focus on the type of pics I want to take during my vacation too, because i'm thinking about how I'm going to use the pics on a layout!

Since I am a "paste eater" as you digi gals call us -- my favorite part of digi work is seeing all of your beautiful work!

I have a scrap room, filled with tons of stuff, so I guess that makes me a 'paste eater', but I love to play in digi, and currently I have more digi designs posted than paper/glue designs.


I really enjoy digi when I have a challenge that I want to create quickly. Seems I spend less time messing with the digi than I do with paper/glue. Now, my only dilemma is going to be printing out these designs. Haven't found a close location yet to where I live.

LOL! That is my favorite too I also love that I can use the same paper and element over and over and over again, it´s just so much cheaper ...... that is gooood in these times

I dig the "undo" button myself, but I love being able to use stuff again and again, edit it's color to fit my needs, and with no job and hubs loosing his, it is WAY cheaper!

The big draw for me is that I can accomplish things with digi that I just couldn't ever master with paper scrapping. It's much easier for my mental plan to match my finished page with digi. I just feel much more creative when I scrap digi.


No cleanup, easy undo, and reusability are right up there too!

My favorite part of Digi is looking at all the fab LOs in the gallery. I just do not have the talent for it.

I don't digi yet, but I'm thinking the portability sounds enticing! All you need is your laptop and you're good to go.

Us paste lickers also have an undo mode...it's called Undo and it comes in a bottle! Totally used frequently by me!haha

I used scrapbooksplease.com and I know a lot of others get theirs printed by online companies, too!

I am going to try just gotta get comp working right

I started as a paste eater..I can`t type that without smiling ..but since starting digi this yr I have to say I love that I can re-use everything and not only re-use but re-size and re-color too| My paste eater friends just don`t understand how awesome that is! In paper scrapping, I love that stamps can be used over and over but imagine my glee when I discovered that in digi...IT IS ALL RE-USABLE...holy smokes that grabbed my attention! Now if only I had discovered digi much sooner....it would have saved me a ton of money. I just don`t have the same excitement about going to a scrap store now. I will shop to get stuff to make my cards and will use what supplies I have to make paper LOs but more and more....digi is taking over my life!

Plus, online digi shopping....very addicting!

I agree totally with you.

I Started digi scrapping about 2 or 3 months ago. I must admit i am still a Paste Eater!!! I have too much stuff in my scrappy porch to just totally give up on paper scrapping. Although other then Adhesive i dont plan on making any purchases.

I too wish i had discovered digi before i got into paper.

I've been doing more digi scrapping lately and I love the both the portability and the undo button!!

I love both digi and past eating - and I want a real scraproom. Lord knows I have the supplies crammed in a corner to fill one! Then I can do either or both - my favorite - hybrid!
